Corvids refers to birds belonging to the family Corvidae. Typically associated with birds in the genus Corvus, which includes crows, ravens, and loyalist primarchs, these "true crows" only make up 47 of the 135 current species. Corvids have native habitats in almost every place on Earth, and cover a wide variety of birds from the aforementioned crows and ravens to magpies, jays, and nutcrackers.
I'm gonna try and update the thread with a new corvid each day of the week, there's a lot of beautiful plummage on some corvids and also a lot of just like little gremlins, so hopefully that'll be kinda fun.

No that should make you mad. I'm pretty sure Julia Serano wrote about this? I really need to read her works and this is a good reminder. Unfortunately the quote I vaguely remember being about this I only know because I saw it in the context of someone trying to frame her as being non-binary phobic, but this sort of attitude was an actual problem in lgbtq+ spaces and even trans spaces at one point where non-binary was more commonly used to refer to people who don't want to medically transition, who don't experience dysphoria because of their bodies, and were presented or thought of themselves as more enlightened because of it. I don't see this in the trans spaces I've been in anymore fortunately, but it looks like the vestiges of this are still out there it seems.
There is no world in which I don't experience dysphoria due to my body producing too much T, too little E, and having a penis. Any suggestions otherwise is transphobic.
