Trump’s latest threats to remove people’s citizenship are the bubbles in the boiling water. We’re the frogs. The temperature is quickly approaching 212°F.

In libraries, we call this vocational awe. The idea that if you are invested in your calling, you should accept low wages/inhumane conditions is a nasty little trick of capitalism.
I’m an author, I’m hungry, I care deeply about my work, AND I deserve to be paid for it.

The "Starving artist" trope was started by ppl who didn't wanna pay artists (writers, painters, musicians, etc) & wanted it to seem a good thing. Artists suffering for art, starving artists, doing it for love only/shunning money - All myth turned folklore as reason to NOT FUCKING PAY US OUR DUE.

i’ve gotten a lot of messages from baby queers being like “will we get through this” and the answer is yes. i don’t know how it’ll all go down and it will suck for a while but your human spirit is 10000x stronger than their hatred. it’s the only reason you’ve gotten this far
