Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Most people who know me know I love the idea of androgyny. At one time I posed as a boy and found it a victory when people couldn't figure out whether to call me sir or ma'am in public. When I used to sing, I wanted to sound as smoky, as manly as I could. I dueted with my sisters as "the male" and felt complimented when they told me they couldn't tell the difference. The most relaxed I've ever been in my body was onboard a small ship, when I could dress and behave however I wanted without it affecting the work I was doing, and vice versa.
