I was just planning on doing some work with an accountability partner yet because I had that sign up she felt safe enough to share how she is feeling in red state and how she is doing what she can to educate. I was greatly encouraged. Together we will not be defeated. 💙💙💙

I did a Focus Mate session today (virtual co-working platform) and I met a woman in Utah. She commented on the sign behind me and said she’s a librarian and is planning a silent reading session for teens. Another book has been banned due to it having gay characters in it. 1/2

NYU Langone’s leadership is failing to stand up for vulnerable young people who deserve gender affirming care.

Excellent. I was moved and inspired by the work you do. Thanks to you and the event this evening I can say that I’m an informed supporter of the New York Health Act. ✊🏼

‘Joy doesn't betray but sustains activism. And when you face a politics that aspires to make you fearful, alienated and isolated, joy is a fine act of insurrection.’ ~ Rebecca Solnit These words I take to bed with me. Tomorrow we go again! 💙

I’ve spent time on Bluesky, napped, been outside in the snow, had a bacon sandwich, texted friends and now what? Maybe that’s all I can manage for today.

I no longer stay in jobs, intimate relationships, friendships, conversations, group chats or rooms where I have to question the support for and celebration of my uniqueness as a transgender man. Enough of that happens ‘out there’.

The evil shit from this new presidency is going to be flowing thick and fast. I can’t be overwhelmed each day but I also won’t allow myself to become numbed and lose my humanity in my fight for justice. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

This is my plan for the next few years and more- Get my news from reliable sources, feel my feelings, stay close to friends who are unequivocal in their support of me, build with people who make bids, focus my energy on specific work that will make a positive difference and never lose hope.
