A mug sits on top of three books on a desk, with handwritten notecards sitting in a pile in front of them. The books are βAnd The Category Isβ, βCrip Theoryβ, and βQueer Nightlifeβ.
Amidst the current and continuous horrors, I had the opportunity to spend two weeks of February in Tennessee on SAFTA's Firefly Farm to work on my trans nightlife ethnography through their Writerβs Coop residency!
Gonna try this platform again haha
Was never good at Twitter, so don't expect a ton
1. This morning, Texas AG Ken Paxton just released a chilling new declaration:
Mental health therapists, counselors, and psychologists must cease affirming trans youth - using their name and pronouns - or potentially face child abuse charges and loss of licensure.
Its a horrifying escalation.

Quarterly Life Update!
(4/4) Friends and loved ones are really helping me get through the current state of affairs right now, and Iβm excited to have the time to focus on them soon.
Quarterly Life Update!
(3/4) While not typing away at my desk, Iβve started bouldering with folks once a month, and Iβve really been enjoying getting my body moving and doing something with all of my nervous energy. As my friend Johanna tells me - weβve gotta get ourselves buff for the revolution.
Quarterly Life Update!
(2/4) My hopes are to focus on animated video zines, my climate collage project, and compiling my notes from my ethnographic study into a presentable form. :) Iβve been so stressed lately that Iβve been sick THREE TIMES in the last 90 days!
Quarterly Life Update!
(1/4) My entire brain has been on thesis mode the last three months so Iβm posting this life update a lil late. Iβm nearing the end of my grad school career at NYU and Iβm both nervous about where Iβm going next and ready for some rest and a chance to do something new.
Currently working on my thesis and admiring the chaos of my note-taking haha
Currently watching βSummer Solsticeβ (2024) for thesis stuff and itβs such a breath of fresh air from the content written by cis people about trans people. Itβs complicated, and the trans people are real people? And talk to EACH OTHER? Wild.
