Been working on getting a sleeve filled with medicinal and poisonous flowers. Hidden within is a fox, who is my own personal symbol.

Been spending Pride helping people at the pharmacy and as always, being visible to the community in that way. I have wrist bands and pins and in no way hide who I am.
Sadly, I misses World Pride due to my Pride worried it was too dangerous with everything going on. Coming from a Pride in Florida.

If you are a government worker DO NOT TAKE THE RESIGNATION OFFER!
Congress has NOT appropriated the money to do that, and that asshole is a GDMF LIAR!
Keep your job, make them fire you, and then fight like hell.

Spending all my very small amount of spoons trying to keep my peers from being ignorant, keep my lolcal Pride even happening when all others are closing their doors, helping those who are losing rights and access, and trying to stay sane myself.

"We have to allow this [org/shelter/hospital/school] to erase the trans community and comply to save everyone else"
Absolutely not.
I will not allow my community to be jettisoned to save yourself. Yes, if you don't, other groups may suffer, and you might too.
But we are all in this together.

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.
