TLDR: There is nothing enforceable for the immediate future. It will take months or years to implement this via rulemaking or bureaucratic changes which are then subject to legal challenge. While it's worrying, there's no immediate change yet for most trans people. Do not comply in advance.

today has been one of the worst days for me to have hit my 2 month anniversary of being alcohol-free like what the helllllll

this is the most insane yet accurate description i have ever read 😭

the fact that the first scene you get with Melody is of her being ashamed of being in a wheelchair is genuinely nasty as hell.

damn anyways, just watch the movie. it’s a lot better.

omg the ick i just got from skimming through the beginning of the book??? “they see a girl with short, dark, curly hair strapped into a pink wheelchair. By the way, there is nothing cute about a pink wheelchair. Pink doesn’t change a thing.” …like bitch.

me when i started watching Grey’s Anatomy because of how many videos you posted of you crying while watching it LMAO

like girl you’re allowed — hell, ENCOURAGED — to call us DISABLED. disabled is not a bad word.

yeah anyway, the book has aged like milk and the movie actually did the concept better. that’s wild.

ok the movie was amazing and it actually got me thinking about how cerebral palsy and disabilities in general are talked about and represented in the book, and uhhh…i went back and realized the author describes people with disabilities as “differently-abled” 🙃

Out of my Mind by Sharon Draper was a very pivotal book for me in my childhood, firstly because it taught me a LOT about cerebral palsy, secondly because i saw myself in it. seeing it come to life as a movie in my adulthood is a dream come true. sooo excited to be watching it 😭💗

everyone who decides for sole fuckass reason to pile into movie theaters the day before thanksgiving…i have a vendetta against you fr because today is HELL for movie theater employees 😭😭

A highlighted passage from a book, which reads, “Ten years have passed since then, and she has come to realize that things feel a whole lot better if you have a really good stereo in the car.”

reading Beartown rn and this quote is genuinely me as helllll i literally saved up $1,200 a few years ago and got a beefy stereo system installed into my car and it has made life SOOO much more tolerable lmfao

also quick DNI list:

- Trump supporters
- general worshippers of politicians
- tankies
- bigots
- ppl who think that online book spaces shouldn’t be political
- ppl who don’t support a free palestine, congo, sudan, etc.

as is basically everyone else, i’m migrating here from X (formerly known as Twitter) to escape the absolute hellscape that is the watchful eye of Elon fucking Musk 💀
