DeSantis just signed the most extreme slate of anti-trans laws in modern history. A bathroom ban will result in many arrests in months to come. A care ban targets 80% of adult care. They are getting little coverage. Subscribe to support my work. erininthemorning.com/p/flori…

I had the great pleasure of chatting with author Susan Straight about writing about place, writing what you know, and doing what you want. @UCRiverside @UCR_MFA
"When you get to a certain point, you’re just like—this is what I want to write about. This is my thing. This is my song that I want to sing. I think you can’t worry about translating it for anyone else." —Susan Straight Read more: mastersreview.com/a-conversa…

his name was jordan neely. please stop sharing the photos of him being murdered. there’s no need to quote those images when talking about it. I don’t even know what to say, just what an evil act of violence.

He actually did shoot two people who harassed him then carried the gun around for the rest of his life. A trans icon. My favorite historical Mexican figure
Think trans people are too mean about misgendering these days? From 1913 on, Zapatista colonel Amelio Robles Ávila threatened to shoot anyone that called him a woman with his pistol. He lived openly as a man for 71 years and was supported by his family, peers, and government.

Listen. All I'm saying is that @AJWhiteAuthor's next book drops on my birthday, and it is already the present I'm most looking forward to getting myself.

I pretty much failed out of college with a 1-point-something GPA and Academic Dismissal my first go at community college. Currently in my final year of my MFA with a novel draft, looking to teach college after this.
Flex your lowest academic low score. To remind us that almost everyone fails at some point in life but it isn't the end of the road. Just a memory in the end. Mine was 27/100 in Engineering Math 2, just a year after I'd scored 99 in 12th boards. Much needed kick in my butt.

Learning that Brianna Ghey was doing community care work and helping others access medical transition at the age of 16 has destroyed me today. If now is not the time to be angry then when is? If now is not the time to fuck shit up until they stop killing us, when is?

Terrifying. Tennessee's senate subcommittee just voted to advance a bill that takes trans kids from parents, bans out of state care, and would charge parents with child abuse. It would forcibly detransition them. They voted 8-1. It has also passed a house subcommittee.
