💖 thank you for resharing!
✨☁️ That’s worth a reflection .
Never underestimate the power of a slow and quiet game. Some of the most toxic, violent, and militant spaces I’ve encountered have been Leftist in theory.
“Theory” being the key word.
Understanding myself through the lens of disability has deepened my radicalism, and I’m proud of the unlearning that’s shaped me. I am softer and sharper because of it.
That doesn’t mean we aren’t building something just as powerful. Make no mistake—we’re cookin’ our magic, strategizing, and moving with intention.
A THREAD: Remember, it’s ableist to assume that resistance looks the same for everyone. There are countless ways to show up for this movement, and disabled people—especially those dealing with chronic pain or fatigue—may not be in the streets the way you are.

sometimes i ask myself, “do i want to be right or do i want to be effective?”
☁️ feel like i’m talkin’ at the ether on this app.
More than anything they taught us to be ourselves and love our neighbors. 💔

@runquiet.bsky.social 👏🏼 couldn’t have said it better myself.
I’m thinking of starting a Substack. I’m seeking support in the form of guidance - what’s worked? What hasn’t? I want to indulge in longer formatted writing and no longer want to post my work to Meta platforms.
How I’ve been tending to myself as a gender-expansive person:
1. Hydration. 2. Naps - plushy pillows and warm blankets. 3. Inexpensive whole foods: oatmeal, blueberries, pumpkin seeds. 4. Poetry; Salt by Nayyirah Waheed *I’m barricading my joy like my life depends on it*
Should the new NEA guidelines require artists and/or artwork to take a position that uncritically lionizes the US government and its founding, they might as well rebrand as the National Endowment for Propaganda.
Read NEA's full statement: www.arts.gov/news/press-r...
Cultural and arts leaders need to stop acting surprised when trans and gender-expansive artists and workers share their experiences of hostility and isolation—especially in the same spaces these leaders insist they’re “very committed” to DEAI.
