I’m the shit
If there’s one thing I’ve learned by driving more than 750 mi. (1200 km) through 7 states in one day, it’s that colonizers were lazy namers. How many Derrys, Jamestowns, and Middleburys do we need?
Not to mention, these places on unceded indigenous land probably already had names.

The folks who refuse to learn the names of trans and nonbinary folks sure are big fucking mad when you deadname the Gulf of Mexico.

Reminder: They're trying to demoralize you, and they're doing a great job of it. Part of resisting is making time for joy despite the attempts to make you feel this is not the time for it. Love your people. Dig the art that speaks to you. Go to the places where life flows into you. You deserve joy.

I’ve been trying to balance being informed with my mental health & feeling guilty when I step away from media. I just read this & it helped me reframe.
