Ok not to be P a R a N o I D, but this plus the pause on passports for trans people is high-key terrifying.
When I last went to Canada I was visibly trans with a passport that looked nothing like me now, and it wasn't an issue crossing. I just wonder if it would be the same now 😬

starting to think that “securing the canadian border” is at least as much about keeping us trapped in as it is keeping drugs out

Ain't this the damn truth 💜🙏🏼
One lesson I had to learn the hard way while my mom was dying of cancer is that 95% of the time, being brave feels like absolute shit.
I feel like complete and utter shit right now. But bravery isn't an emotion, its an action.
Bravery isn't meant to feel good. Courage only exists in adversity.

I can't write entire novels here like I did on ig stories! I never used the bird app n I'm not used to brevity! Noooo and now those teachers who told me to stop writing run on sentences are haunting me I need at least the length of characters for like a 19th century romantic arty flowery book title!

People are really out here debating whether a nazi salute is a nazi salute from a billionaire hard right administration that is actively tryna do nazi stuff?
I know none of us want this to be happening. But we can't afford the false comfort of denial. Mourn, scream, organize, love, we got this!
