Liminal is such a good word. It has two major definitions. 1. In-between, transitional. 2. On the edge of perception The first definition is the common one. Liminal spaces. But the second one I love. By that definition, cryptids can be described as liminal. Bigfoot's one blurry photograph.

Something else that fits the meaning of "liminal" are ways of living that you barely perceive. Maybe that's why conservatives fear trans people. We fit both definitions of Liminal. Like cryptids, they don't encounter us often enough to understand what they're seeing, and that terrifies them.

you may not be actively aware of it but every word you choose comes with a mountain of baggage, drags a cultural and personal history along with it. Sometimes it’s fun to pull out the web of concepts and take a close look

What if I just started unceremoniously dumping lore and world building. What if I made stories with details I'm not sure about? What if I post stuff that will later be incorrect. Non-canon. Discarded. Updated. Sounds like more fun than waiting until I'm sure.
