sometimes it is kinda surreal how me wanting to inject myself with hormones that make me feel good and make me enjoy living is apparently so scandalous that the government is unmaking itself to stop me from doing that.

They'd do well to know

And you reap what you sew

Friendly reminder that if you buy a book on Kindle, you're only paying for the rights to read, not own. If a book truly gets banned, it will be taken away from digital platforms like Kindle, nook, etc. Consider getting physical copies of banned (or other) books!

Going in to 2025, its important that you *actually own* the queer and trans literature you consume. That's why for ebooks you should always look for DRM-free storefronts like Itch, or an author/publisher's website, where you can buy a downloadable .epub you can read anywhere, and is yours forever
BTW:

When you make purchases on Itch, the files are yours to keep forever. You aren't "licensing" it; Amazon can't delete it from your library.

YOU are part of preserving transfeminine literature, YOU are part of the movement preventing digital book burnings. YOU are fighting censorship & erasure
For absolutely no reason at all, here are some awesome transfeminine lit books you can get DRM-free on Itch. Many of these books were nominations for the Transfeminine Review Awards or were written by authors who had other books nominated!

#1 social media tip:

Believe in kindness.

Interact with people you like, support them, help them get traction. Comment on their art, cheer them on, share a shop post. Be selfless.

Kindness blossoms into more kindness. It will take you far. People who stick together, grow together.

Everyone saying "make weird art!" you better fucking mean it. There better not be an unspoken "but not too weird" tacked on at the end.

Getting your freaky, fucked-up, queer, messy art out into the world is more important than ever

One of the hardest parts about being disabled, in my opinion, is being someone who wants to do everything but being stuck in a body that struggles doing anything.

part of being on T is knowing when to stop trying to sing female parts in duets. I will never know when.

If your goal this year is to read more books, remember:

you don’t have to finish every book you start. If you’re halfway through and can’t stand the characters or just don’t care what happens, it’s okay to put it down.

Life’s too short to read books you don’t love!

Just a reminder that:

-your gender identity is real
-your relationships should be celebrated
-you’re not the “issue”, ignorance and hatred are
-you are loved and supported

The holidays can be a tough time for us, take care and be gentle with yourself
