I know there are so many themes we could explore like men who create things instead of going to therapy, but I just see so many links to the loss of humanity, dignety and rights in the fertility industry's pursuit of creating children for the patriarchy.

I watched that Frankenstein movie. It was ok. It made me want to read the book, but it also made me think about the insane fertility industry.

In Denmark (you know that cute country that everyone thinks is a socialist haven of equality) intercountry #adoptees are naturalized, but our politicians still make laws that discriminate against us based on our "immigration" status. 🥚

“Citizenship for All Intercountry Adoptees” in the style of the “Zohran for New York City” campaign logo

did you know that intercountry #adoptees born before 1983 have no guarantee of US citizenship, and instead are treated as immigrants who must obtain citizenship through naturalization? That they are subject to deportation if they have committed a crime or are deemed to be in the US “illegally?”

Den måde som donorbranchen skaffer, markedsfører og sælger deres produkt burde seriøst forbydes.

Slut med dum sæd: Dansk sædbank har minimumskrav til donorers IQ Lektor i medicinsk etik frygter, at mere screening kan give kommende forældre en falsk forsikring om, hvad man kan forvente sig af sit barn.

Vi har et ord for det her og det er eugeni og det ser overhovedet ikke sejt ud.

Zohran Mamdami’s beautiful colourful typographic posters

Well done Zohran! And of course the real victor of the day - typography.

> If you understand why it's grotesque to watch that family just going about their daily business, then you should also understand why that music festival was never ok.

If you don't understand that, then you didn't really understand the movie.

Was listening to a podcast where they discussed The Zone of Interest. I feel like that movie is a litmus test.

If you watch it and is outraged then you should also be outraged at a certain other situation happening right now.

Thank you for this summary. So basically all the adoption tropes you can think of.

Apologies for the lack of alt text.

And also can't wait to hear these three conversations and readings. Adult adoptees creating art and literature for and by us.

Really looking forward to this talk om solidarity between adoptees, LGBTQIA+ / QTBIPOCs, adoption activism, and how we balance between different minoritized identities.

I'll be moderating this panel: "How do we create a family policy that ensures human rights are protected, with the knowledge we have from the adoption industry?"

All talks will be in Danish, apart from the first talk on comminity and solidarity amongst adoptees from different countries and how we can work together. This one will be in English.

Nov 8th I'll be hosting Adoptionspolitisk Forum's adoption conference. I'm proud of the programme we've managed to put together, considering we are a small NGO with few resources. It's sold out, but we are planning on streaming it on our facebook page. 🥚 #adoption

She got mad and unfollowed me because I asked her if she thought it was ok to pick your children's skin colour. Like, she writes "feminist" books and has 8.000 followers.

Hahaha some white woman just commented on my IG post asking what the ethical thing to do is, if you want a donor that's darker skinned, because you think it's more beautiful than your own light skin? Or whether we are only "allowed" to choose our own skin colour?

Sooooo far from understanding.

Incidentally, one of Denmark's biggest exports is sperm. The world cannot get enough of tall, blond, viking sperm.

The donor industry is a perfect example of capitalism, racism and eugenics in one.

Isn't it funny how the global north have been dying to adopt little brown babies for decades, so they could "help" and also look "colour blind"? 🥚

But when they have to pick egg and sperm donors, they go for the snowiest of white.

The American adoptees who fear deportation to a country they can't remember Thousands of US adoptees do not have citizenship despite being brought to the country as babies decades ago. Now many fear deportation.

The Adoptee Citizenship Act must be updated! This is an injustice. 🥚 #adopteesky

It's Adoptee Remembrance Day today. I think about all the adoptees whose lives have ended too early. May they rest in peace🥚

Oh I'm sorry to hear that. I totally understand the complicated feelings you might have.

From Google Translation:

Although Jakob was raised in Denmark, his Finnish girlfriend has easier access to Danish citizenship.

He has lived in Denmark since he was adopted from South Korea at the age of three. Now he has given up on getting Danish citizenship

Anyway, boycott Radiohead. If you pay for a ticket to see them, then remember you are also paying the zionist Jonny Greenwood's salary.

Thom Yorke trying to damage control before Radiohead's world tour, and after repeatedly being called out, whilst also alluding to the issue only lying with Netanyahu, shows exactly how little he understands the problem.

>> Let me remind you that the issue isn't adoptee's rights. The issue is the state's racism and ridiculous anti-immigration policies. 🥚
