My name is Amelia. My pronouns are she/her/hers. I am trans, queer, autistic, invisibly disabled, and many other things.

Starship Gender is my name for an assortment of things. It includes this blog, The Trans Mission Logs of the Starship Gender. It also is a kind of ongoing project of documenting and sharing my own life and work.

This project began in April of 2019 with the most important love letter I've ever written.

More about the purpose and inspiration of the blog in particular can be found in the second-ever entry, on Monday, April 29, 2019:

"I want some other lovely person to pick up a book full of the inanity and prattle and pretention that I'm dumping out, and see... something. I don't really know. But I want them to be hooked, instantly and irrevocably, and finally set the volume down hours later as they close the last page. I want them to be a little sad because it's over now. But most of all, I want them just to feel... loved.

...

"If you're actually here, actually really truly seeing this, I love you. I'm dedicating every scrap of soul I can put onto these pages to you. My truest, deepest dream is that you might see things here that resonate, that speak to your own soul, that finally say that you are not alone, you never have been, and we love you. I want to be the voice of truly unconditional and unchangeable love for you - the one you deserve so much, and the one I never got to have.

These are the Trans Mission Logs of the Starship Gender. Fare thee well, traveler."

The Dangerous Ideas Vault

In addition to the longer-form blog entries and essay-style writing published here, the Starship Gender project includes a large collection of my assorted non-fiction writings and ideas, organized into the Dangerous Ideas Vault.

You can find my fictional writing here: Vignettes from a Multiverse

This collection includes microfiction, short stories, and speculative tales - sometimes about the world we occupy, and sometimes about the worlds I wish we could.

The SpoonStack Project

SpoonStack.org is a collective project that I started. We are actively building new technology under a radical philosophy I call Disability-Driven Development.
