It's so bizarre that A CHRISTMAS STORY wound up being canonized, because it is a deeply weird movie. It's subversive (as many other Bob Clark movies are), and clearly made by someone who was born in the States, immigrated to Canada, and with distance, saw the gun fetishism of America & satirized it

This headline isn't just *misleading*, this is a deliberate attempt to create a false narrative about life-saving medical care. Absolutely fucking disgusting.
You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.

Feels like a number of people have a hard time calling direct aid, direct aid. I don't know why. Not all direct aid is part of mutual aid but many mutual aid efforts INCLUDE direct aid. The key here is INCLUDE which suggests that there is more happening than direct aid in mutual aid efforts.

The only truly irreversible thing a trans child is likely to do is take their own life. "What if they do something irreversible?" actually means "theyre not allowed to make a decision!"
You cant undo or reverse any decision you make, you can simply change your mind later and handle the consequences

despite all the fear mongering about trans people and the attempts to abandon and actively harm us from both political parties in the US, transitioning is still the greatest decision i’ve ever made, only regret i have is not doing it younger, and that it has only made my life infinitely better

🧵It has been clear for years that a key difference between past instances of book banning and the present censorship cataclysm is that the banning happening now targets not only books, but librarianship as a profession and libraries as an institution. 1/4

The Regime's goal is to grind everyone down. Plain & simple. Our goal is to refuse this by taking turns to fight where and how we can. When one group needs to bow out, then another group needs to step in and so on. We don't all have to do everything. We can all do something though. Stay in the fight

What I learned from Miss Major was persistence and also keeping a sense of humor. I was lucky to see her work in various organizing meetings over the years. She was a model of how to be a good elder. Truly grateful for everything she did to make the world better. Time for the rest of us to continue.
