Elon Musk takes aim at Wikipedia
Musk has denounced Wikipedia as "Wokepedia" on X and urged people not to donate to the platform.

Being a trans author is fucking weird right now. Hell is actively unfolding all around us but I still need to be like, "hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book? It won't make anything better, but it's kinda fun?"
So....hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book?

I know a lot of people are boycotting Amazon, which is great, but it's hurting a lot of trans authors.
Trans authors: Drop links to your NON-AMAZON book listings/storefronts.
Cis people: Repost, boost, and, importantly, buy. Part of boycotting an evil corporation is supporting the alternatives.

Block anyone posting about the LGB or LGBQ+ community. This is an active effort to erase trans people.
There is no Pride without trans people. Specifically trans people of colour. Dropping the T is bootlicking. It's throwing them under the bus and waiting happily to be next.

Literature is no one’s private ground; literature is common ground. It is not cut up into nations; there are no wars there. Let us trespass freely and fearlessly and find our own way for ourselves.
