The NYT's anti-trans fear mongering was cited in a Supreme Court briefing that stripped away the rights of trans kids. They need to be fully blacklisted by queer people and their allies. Don't work for them. Don't use them for book press. Don't speak with them for stories. They made their bed.

I passed my field exams, and I’m off to get IRB approval. In the meantime, I got a reading list for the summer. If you’d like to read along with me, discover a new interest, or send me a book, here’s my Amazon wishlist. www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

My last exam, the oral colloquy is Monday. I’m stressed beyond stress and fearful of a number of outcomes. Soon it’ll be over.

This week, I'll begin a month of comprehensive exams and an oral colloquy for my PhD. This is the final step before I get started on my research and dissertation writing.

Today has been a big review day. I finished my review of Narrative and got a good start on my Trauma exam. #FieldExams2025

Today in field exam preparation, I’m working on Oral history. Specifically, I’m reviewing Indecent Theology by Marcella Althaus-Reid. We’re waiting final dates, but it’s looking like less than 3 weeks until they start.

Cisgender friends, I need you to read this, act on this, share this.

I just looked for my phone with one hand while the other held it. Is this what it meant by left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing?

Dream with me of a future where trans lives are valued and celebrated. Help me finish my field exams by sponsoring a book. My book registry is linked. I need the kindle edition. ([email protected]). Read it and maybe you’ll find a good book to read… (1/2) www.amazon.com/registries/g...

So much has happened since my last post. Emergency spinal surgery, a host of complications. Six weeks of at home therapies. The week of 3 ED visits. The week of four attempted MD visits. Utter exhaustion during Christmas. This next week though, I graduate and start new primary care.

Dr. Popper and Qhira need some love! Vote for them!

Disabled lives are worth living.

I'm too bisexual to pick a tense, and too process to stick with just one. #dissertationproposalwoes

What if today was the special occasion you’ve been waiting for?

I took my next PhD exam this morning. If it’s a pass, I’ll start the process of scheduling my final 5 exams. (Four written and one oral. )

My next PhD milestone is close enough I can taste it. Soon enough I’ll be done.

Celebrate the wins. Don't ever forget who's still fighitng.

Art for discernment requires connecting with your head, heart, and belly minds to create something new that helps you see your emotions.

Life on life’s terms includes life for only this moment.
