I've heard people suggest using Keybase.io as a way to prove ownership of new accounts on different instances. But for me, online, I have a couple different personas. Usernames for being a snarky pseudo-anonymous trans girl, usernames for my deadname, and now I guess professional trans woman serious business accounts. What I mean to say is, does this mean I need three separate keybase accounts? Or am I being dumb here, and does Keybase accommodate this usecase otherwise?
In retrospect, needing complex cryptography to keep track of my sprawling personas is pretty Philip K. Dick. I do draw parallels between A Scanner Darkly and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep to the trans experience, but that's because I do that for everything.
@ikea_femme universal filter ...
@EriMc It's terrible, my mom mentioned the children's picture book Stellaluna, about a bat child who finds herself living with a bird family and trying her best to live as a bird and failing, and I was like "HOLY SHIT, TRANS NARRATIVE!"
@ikea_femme but it'S these stories of mismatch, norms and artificiality (PKD) that always bring these things out for me too
