Here's the truth.
You can't stand with trans people and take a gig with Rowling. It is impossible. You can make donations, you can issue statements of support, but at the end of the day you are choosing to work with the single most prominent transphobe who uses her money and platform to harm us.

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.
However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

WCK resumed cooking in Gaza after our first aid delivery in 12 weeks. With new ingredients on hand, we’re preparing warm, carb-rich meals like pasta and hearty potato stews. The WCK team cooked nearly 10,000 meals on day one of resumed operations. #ChefsForGaza (1/2)

I know a lot of folks like this account. But this is a wild, and unhelpful, exaggeration--it's a resistance version of sean spicer. It veers into #resistanceporn and trades accuracy for clout, like other "blue maga" grifters on here. Pls consider finding other sources of inspiration/news/motivation

Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids.
Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

It feels like whether you're trans or queer or gazan or Black or disabled it just keeps coming back to that. Stop killing us. What else are we supposed to say? It's not a difference of opinion with a middle ground, it's reckless hate and eradication.

Ditch Audible, friends. Amazon doesn't need more money. Use Libby (supports public libraries) or Libro FM (supports indie bookstores) instead.
Hate this a lot. Value human creators, writers, artists, narrators, editors -- everyone in the chain of making a book and putting it out into the world should be a human being. Humans make art for humans.
