Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

Do you have an evidence-free statistic that haunts you? I once read that most people rate themselves as being slightly more attractive than they actually are, and ever since then, when I feel gross, I make sure to remind myself that I look grosser than I think I do. A triumph of mental health!

So if activists were completely focused on respectability, why are we constantly hearing about the excesses of trans activists and how they go too far?
Because it doesn't matter if we're respectability focused or not! They'll find some rando to hold up as an example and say we're too extreme.
