It’s easier for Trump to paint Trans people, even Trans youth, as devious villains, because it’s easier to make up a problem where there isn’t one than to deal with the true and crippling issues that the country faces that he never intended to help resolve in the first place.

Happy Trans Visibility Day! Sending warm hugs to all of my Trans friends and their supportive friends and family. 🫶🏻

hey for anyone who might want to actually own their kindle books instead of renting them, or who might be thinking of switching to kobo etc and will want to convert them to epubs, you now only have one week before amazon kills your ability to download its ebooks www.theverge.com/news/612898/...
Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books
It’s bad if you like to keep ebook backup copies.

Queerness exists in nature! Take it from an artist who illustrated hundreds of examples of it. From last year’s issue on love.
