Apparently, Trump created “Transgender For Eveyone” in the past few weeks, which I think is what @badinfinity2.bsky.social has been lobbying for all along, so I guess we’re done here. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Book cover for A Magnificent Disturbance‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ (Book 3 of the Rainbow Gap Quartet) by Lee Lynch (Bold Strokes Books‬), with a muted sepia-tinted photo of a boardwalk leading to a white house with a wraparound porch, in front of a distant ocean horizon and palm tree. This is not a good time for Berry Garland to realize her dream of opening a women’s health center. Florida has become more conservative, and “women’s health” raises a red flag. Berry’s intent to serve victims of domestic violence, gay women, migrant workers—documented or not—makes reliance on government funding and the cooperation of local agencies precarious. When the owner of Pansy’s Café donates space, though, MJ Beaudry and her lover Vonnie Lowe’s brother volunteer to revamp the space into a health facility. Berry’s best friend, activist Allison Millar, is disgusted with the frenzied hurricane of right-wing extremism, homophobia, and violence. As mayor of Four Lakes, she helps navigate local bureaucracy. A community of lesbians, neighbors, and patients rises up to protect this critical resource from a shocking saboteur. Despite Berry and her partner Jaudon Vicker’s devastating life changes at home, these everyday dykes and their friends will stop at nothing to see the Center thrive. Their ideals, their wounds, and a steadfast allegiance to one another render them heroes. https://www.boldstrokesbooks.com/books/a-magnificent-disturbance-by-lee-lynch-4701-b

Book cover for Glorious Bodies: Trans Theology and Renaissance Literature by Colby Gordon (University of Chicago Press‬), with an angel statue held up by other angel statues. Marking a major intervention in early modern gender studies, Glorious Bodies insists that transition happened, both socially and surgically, hundreds of years before the nineteenth-century advent of sexology. Pairing literary texts by Shakespeare, Webster, Donne, and Milton with a broad range of primary sources, Gordon examines the religious tropes available to early modern subjects for imagining how gender could change. https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/G/bo222253331.html
