Throwback to my first PA Times article, which kickstarted my eventual capstone project discussing policy recommendations for sex work in the US.

Let’s Talk About Sex Work - PA TIMES Online
Like other precarious occupations, there are various reasons an individual may choose sex work—and public administrators play a role in mitigating the negative consequences faced by those involved.

(1/4) Figured out why Canada's increased security of US borders is so unnerving. Canada is funneling $1.3 billion into a glorified war on drugs. Such campaigns has historically impacted sex workers the most. This'll be another excuse to double down on whorephobia.

This isn't a coincidence. It starts with sex workers first, then branches out. Whorephobia and its repercussions are intersectional.
He has also just introduced bills to "abolish" Plan B, ban no-fault divorce, and imprison librarians who organize Drag Queen Story Hour.

spent some time digging into the nashville school shooters manifesto and found out he and the femcel school shooter from a few months ago knew eachother. i’m slowly becoming convinced we need to ban websites like 4chan or possibly most of the internet for children. it’s destroying them

💉Yes, he is prickly

The copyright for a book lasts for 70 years after the death of the author.
That’s a long time to discover, share and appreciate the story.
It is why I believe great stories will always find their readers.
It is not about the first 3 weeks of publication.

“I'm writing a first draft and reminding myself that I'm simply shoveling sand into a box so that later I can build castles.”

This was probably my most viral tweet. I've seen it pop up in a lot of quote aggregators, sometimes attributed to a wonderful but definitely not-me filmmaker.

When the Republicans try to ban sexual content online, know this is the first step. Just because you don’t personally like porn, or you aren’t a sex worker, or you aren’t trans, doesn’t mean you aren’t next. Standing up for people’s right to do with their bodies what they choose is anti-fascist.
It is little known, but the first book burnings in Nazi Germany didn’t target Jewish writers. It was the burning of the library of the Institute of Sexual Research, which was a safe home for trans people.

It is no accident that fascists today walk that same dark path by targeting trans people. /5

I'm very disappointed by all the people who don't understand what this means

A little louder now.

You don't know ANY undocumented people.

You are not able to direct authorities to ANY undocumented people.

You have no idea who they are looking for.
You don't know any undocumented people.

I repeat:
You don't know any undocumented people.

Goodreads is owned by Jeff Bezos. A better alternative is StoryGraph, a Black woman-owned platform. And before y’all start, you can transfer all your Goodreads data to Storygraph so you literally have no excuse.
