What never ceases to amaze me about stuff like this is that I literally have cis guy friends who have prescriptions for testosterone. So…will they take that away too??

Your kid rocks 💙

Being a trans author in the US right now is just toggling between the book that’s due in two weeks and various internet searches on where to go if I suddenly have to flee the country 🫠

The Trump Administration is trying to undo protections in the Affordable Care Act while using federal power to target immigrants, LGBTQ+ communities, and working-class families.

“He’s tanking the economy because he’s a Russian plant!” I mean, maybe??? Or maybe he’s just a rich white man who’s out to make himself richer at the expense of literally everyone else bc that’s what rich white men DO

Another year, another #transdayofvisibility and honestly, I’m sick of being visible. What if instead of asking trans people to be visible, everyone else used their visibility for us? To protect, respect, and defend us?

Authors! Join us! We are stronger together. We need you.

Dear editor, I apologize if there are formatting errors in this manuscript. Please know it was not me.

It was my cat.

So sorry I missed it but so glad you had a great time! 💙

Yesss Emma R. Alban for queer historical for sure! Also Cat Sebastian
