For those calling victory for women the ruling also has a fascist definition of Lesbian that’s right from CIS WHITE MAN telling us who we are and who to love. We know who will feel the sharpest edge of this #protectblacktranslives

Octavia Butler left us in 2006 but the legacy is vast and beautiful. Bloodchild is thrilling, and maybe the TV show #kindred based on her novel of the same name is a good intro too, but for me? It’s #theparableofthesower this biting social critique wrapped in astute speculative clothing. Go on now.
