NEEDLES: A reflection on the gap between intention and impact, where symbols of care can quietly wound. In 2016, safety pins were worn to show solidarity, but as a trans youth, they hurt more than they healed. Allyship isn’t a trend or adornment - it’s action.

#WeAreInaLotofTrouble #TransKidDiaries
A short 9-panel comic reading “NEEDLES” as the title. The first three panels include a kid in side profile holding the strap of their backpack, to pricking their finger on buttons fixed to the strap, then a closeup of their pricked finger. The second three include the kid seated at a desk with their head resting on their palm and their elbows on the desk, with the second panel involving a safety pin pricking their elbow and the third showing the pricked elbow and open needle. The bottom three panels include the kid’s head and shoulders, the face/head slowly being consumed by pinpricks that eat away at it.

“WE ARE IN A LOT OF TROUBLE” is an ongoing reflection of my experience as a Midwestern trans kid navigating a world riddled with intolerance. I share this to validate my inner child, and encourage a future where trans youth thrive. I would love to see others’ relics of 2016.

Polaroid of a young queer kid in 2016, wearing a black button down with floral sleeves and in side profile. A colorful repetition of hearts, skulls, smileys and other sketches you’d find in a high school sketchbook - with the repetitive text reading “i’m ready 2 DITCH America” reduced to “i’m ready 2 die”. A high school math classroom whiteboard that reads, “WE ARE IN A LOT OF TROUBLE” - an ominous scribe I walked into class to after the results Trump’s initial election.

Donald Trump isn’t the cause of what ails America. He’s the consequence. The real causes go back four decades. Watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sP0p...
