The psychological effects of constant surveillance extend to our very ability to express ourselves freely and creatively. When we feel like we’re always under scrutiny, we tend to play it safe, sticking to conventional thoughts and behaviors rather than taking risks or thinking outside the box. This self-censorship can stifle innovation and personal growth, leading to a society that’s less diverse, less dynamic, and ultimately less human

Sistergirl (Sistagirl) and Brotherboy (Brothaboy) are genders from Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures.[1] The terms are not analogous to transfeminine and transmasculine as understood in the non-Indigenous LGBTA community, and were coined directly by Indigenous individuals.
Someone who describes themself as a sistergirl or brotherboy is understood to live their life through gendered experiences that aren't consistent with their assigned gender at birth.[2][3] This includes gender identity but also cultural identity, social role, and other gendered aspects of the Indigenous cultural worldview. Because of this, the terms do not explicitly refer to those who may otherwise be described as transgender.
A sistergirl may be a transgender woman, a transfeminine non-binary individual, a feminine gay man, a drag queen, or any other permutation.
A brotherboy may a transgender man, a transmasculine non-binary individual, a masculine lesbian/sapphic individual, a drag king, or an otherwise butch individual.
Sistergirls and brotherboys may not consider themselves to identify as the gender the word may imply; one may be a sistergirl but not a woman.
Like many concepts of gender from Indigenous individuals, the Indigenous Australian concepts of gender, including sistergirls and brotherboys, is not best understood in terms of western gender-descriptive language, and should not be misunderstood as being a term for transgender individuals. Indigenous culture surrounding gender in so-called Australia was affected by white invasion which attempted to enforce gender role based on physicality rather than spirituality - based on body parts instead of internal gender experience. Indigenous culture around Australia varies and many sistergirls and brotherboys are subject to homophobia and transphobia in their communities, a significant deal of which is due to colonial enforcement of strict gender.
True surrealists of the 21st century are not the self-proclaimed weird artists littering the gardens with paintings of angels in all sorts of kamasutrical positions. Our age no longer needs sexual liberation, like the 20's did. More than ever it needs machine freedom. And you, the fools, the cowboys, the clowns, the degenerates, the hackers, are the surrealists of our age, keeping the flame of the universal collaborative will alive. You, who sit down before a computer, place your fingers on a crumb-covered keyboard and write a program, bending the original purpose of the strangled machine beneath your fingertips to everyone's benefit.
