Please stop doing this.

Please.

Amazon giving the ability for people who have no concept of grammar and spelling to report typos and removing a book for sale is one of the dumbest moves, and they do a lot of dumb stuff.
Apparently at 60+ reported errors, Amazon tells you that they are straight up going to take your book off sale if you don't fix them.

There were ZERO actual errors in that list.

55+ were "missing closing quotes" because the dialog was broken into more than one paragraph.

A factor of transphobia, for all trans people, is a relentless attack on our ability to receive care. When you claim that trans men are exempted from marginalization you actively threaten our ability to receive care. Please stop.

If you think that trans people are getting our rights ripped away "because the left went too far," you're a moron.

Everything happening to us today was written up and planned by the Family Research Council in 2015. The document is still public. It's all there. www.frc.org/transgender#...

Your regular reminder that the first known clinic to offer gender-affirming surgeries was … destroyed by Nazis.

In 1933.

this is where "just asking questions" and sports bans have brought us - the attempted total erasure of trans people from public life

fuck these people, trans rights are human rights
Just released memorandum from OPM:

Federal facilities will now have a bathroom ban for transgender people.

It will go into effect on the 31st.

It also has a slew of effects and puts into place the 1st anti-trans EO policies for every agency.

This will have a ton of impacts very quickly.

The part of your brain the creates and the part of your brain that edits are different. When you edit while writing, you switch your mode of thinking and can gum up the works, so to speak, knocking yourself out of your groove. Correct obvious mistakes, but knock out your pages and edit them after.

Trump’s anti-trans Executive Order is bad BUT it technically defines everyone as female. It states:

“'Female' means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell."

Since all fetuses "at conception" are female, Trump just defined EVERYONE as female.
