If you’re wondering what a “least weasel” is, they absolutely live up to the name. This is the least amount of animal you can have that can still meet the bar for “is weasel”

Thanks! Hopefully I'll see you again at some festival sometime soon

Very excited to hang out with you in Twin Cities. Please bring the smugness.

The kids are listening. And we need them to be sure that we want them here. All of them. 💗 9/9

Very real kids hear all of us when we show distain, contempt, or mockery for kids like them. Please, let's be mindful of how we speak. Let's choose respect and compassion. The more we feel respect & compassion for ourselves, it can flow out of us to them. 8/

The Prince in Pink is a fictional character. He doesn’t need defending. But there are very real kids who identify with characters like him. A story like this can help validate their right to exist and create real world space for them. 7/

They did not turn me into man or make me attracted to women. Books do not have the power to change who we are at our core. What they can do is help us have empathy for the characters, whether they are alike us or different from us. 6/

Let’s be clear—if a boy who prefers wearing blue and playing with trucks reads this book, it will not turn him into a boy who prefers wearing pink and decorating for parties. The majority of books I was assigned in school were written by men and about men who were attracted to women. 5/
