We had a lovely conversation about 'Brown/Trans/Les', my work in general, and when 'Estro Junkies' is releasing this year! Thank you so much for inviting me on, and for spotlighting my work <3

Due to being a refugee, I only get invited to interviews for menial and service jobs. Because of my disability, I can't work those. I live on modest and sporadic freelance earnings and can't afford surgical expenses. Please help if you can 🙏

sighing at my facebook timeline and having to post a status about how no, epstein did not eat babies and sorry, that's actually an antisemitic trope everyone and yeah, if you read the file where the claim was made the dude giving the interview was most likely having a psychotic episode

It feels worth saying that the thing that unifies men as disparate as Noam Chomsky, Deepak Chopra and Trump is patriarchy. Patriarchy, hatred of women, and the need to dominate them, persists across race and class status. Left movements refuse a robust analysis of persisting gender violence.

Oooh, not so easy to name a specific book overall. But I go back to the work of Barbara Smith and Silvia Federici (&social reproduction theory) a lot. Contemporaneously I'd say @taliabhatt.itch.io's books really resonate wrt gender / nation / race & are engagingly written but also v incisive

have been so grateful these last few weeks -- this last decade -- to have an understanding of patriarchy + its hypocrisies + operations. if you've never considered reading feminist theory, if you've intended to but not made time, this is the moment. the world will be made more clear if you do.

Congratulations to the six!
But also this really underlines the danger of long running periods of the UK govt imprisoning activists on remand while they sow malicious narratives about them in the media. Thank goodness they were all acquitted.

A truly hideous right wing smear campaign against these six activists for exercising their free speech rights to protest - and confronted with the evidence all six have been acquitted.

Feds gave Jeffrey Epstein a sweetheart deal when he was alive, let him die before facing trial, obstructed justice after his death, punished victims for demanding transparency, and are now trying to move on without addressing the vast corruption and abuse. THIS is how our “justice” system works.

I do my best to narrativize my nonfiction! You have to laugh so you're not constantly screaming bloody murder.
I'm not even all that far into @taliabhatt.itch.io's book "Brown/Trans/Les" and have already lost track of the number of times I've convulsed with laughter. Bitter laughter, to be sure, because the horror of the underlying realities discussed is never lost, but Bhatt is a *funny* genius. READ THIS!

That's right, the podcast episode has information on the release of Estro Junkies! The book is a full rewrite of RCBG season 1 where everyone is just a little bit worse, with the pacing and structure redone for novelization!

"Non-binary" umbrellas a lot of different and even divergent things, and sometimes there is a rather ugly tension between those who use it to express repulsion from womanhood and those (who are very often transfem) for whom it is additive to womanhood or kin to it
There's a lot unexamined about the unstated prescriptivism and norms around non-binary identity in Western, anglophonic contexts, but it's really operative in how the Woman is constructed as this binary, regressive, unqueerable positionality.
