since all the "gender critical"/TERFs are migrating here, thought I'd share this primer explaining their history, dissecting their beliefs, & debunking their talking points. no-paywall links, pls share! Substack: juliaserano.substack.com/p/a-gender-c... Medium: juliaserano.medium.com/a-gender-cri...

might i suggest that the best way to decolonize yr thanksgiving is by not celebrating it 🔻✨

just signed a contract for my second book y’all!

No matter where you are in your trans-ness, if you are feeling despair, I cannot recommend enough engaging with the writings and histories of our elders who lived our lives before the 21st Century. It is both not as dark as you think and tougher than you think. And it will give you something.

🇵🇸 tonight ♾️

Poets for a Free Palestine 🇵🇸 10 / 26 8pm 🇵🇸 @ the Poetry Project 🇵🇸

39-year-old Palestinian artist Heba Zagout was killed with her two young children in an Israeli airstrike on Gaza on Friday, October 13.

This is brilliant—in response to the Frankfurt Book Fair's contemptible erasure of Adania Shibli's brilliant MINOR DETAIL, her publisher Fitzcarraldo Editions has made the ebook free to download for the duration of the Book Fair, on Amazon UK, Apple Books, and Kobo.
