Oh huzzah! I have been completely outside of any news cycle today, so will save to read tomorrow.
I havenβt shared this widely yet (or anywhere outside of a few texts) but Iβm currently onboarding into a part time director gig & have spent most of my waking mental load on that

I appreciate the praise but also donβt want to be on any pedestal because I would immediately fall off of it lmao
Iβve said dumb shit, Iβve done dumb shit, the only thing I CAN say is that Iβve always genuinely cared about others even if I donβt know them/have never met them/donβt βdoβ it βrightβ π

This topic actually makes me raging mad and then miss having access to a heavy bag/boxing trainer as a means of processing that rage.
I donβt understand anyone that thinks others should suffer because theyβre not like them or they canβt relate to them.
Itβs the absolute dumbest shit imaginable.

Before I go to sleep tonight, if youβre someone that thinks our Trans friends, family members, & fellow society members should be quiet about their experiences, their right to exist, and their existence in general,
β¦I think youβre a shitty human that values fake βpeaceβ over the needs of others

The calls for trans people to be quieter as we're wiped out are only going to increase, and you owe it to your sisters and brothers to get louder and louder.

Yep, the moment I saw that I legit said βfor fucks sakeβ out loud.

β¦This should not be a difficult ask for a mayoral candidacy team, I see better PR/communications feedback handling from folks leading comms teams in the game industry. City politics is arguably more important/of greater stakes.
It feels like a lot of ego is at play across the board.
