Haven't figured out a politic way to word this but before saying someone/thing "makes you uncomfortable" please ask yourself this important question: is it any of your fucking business

Oddly enough, yesterday was one of those "it's so good to be a librarian" days. Go figure 🤷‍♀️

Oh, and about the US elections... my descriptive, not prescriptive, personal perspective:

This is an excerpt from an email to my mom, who is angry:

I have been alternating between being very focused on what I can do in front of me, and feeling sick to my stomach. I know that post-election analysis is inevitable, and my mind can't help consuming and regurgitating it [referencing our earlier emails]. But more importantly for me, I want to heal from this shock so I can be strong enough to do my part when the shit hits the fan, and to continue to be kind.

Of course I am also angry. And bitter. Of course I am also scared, although frankly I am at lesser risk in a demographic sense from what will come. And I want to be strong enough to help others who are not when the time comes. I don't know yet what that will look like, but I have to actively work against my own despair to have the energy to learn and act. That's where I'm at.

(Let me add to this word salad: Of course the US Democratic Party is not going to save us... I would love to see a national progressive party emerge from the chaos to come, but even I am too cynical atm for that. As others have said, I believe that local / grassroots / mutual aid efforts are where to begin, in a practical sense.)

Unprecedented levels of not-giving-a-shit have been reached at my workplace 🙌

hello again (bill clinton limewire voice) my fellow americans

There are a few states that actually have Shield/Refuge laws designed to help trans people fleeing from trans-unsafe states, which also guarantee trans folks access to healthcare. These states are:

California

Colorado

Illinois

Oregon

Vermont

Washington

Minnesota

New Mexico

Maine

Massachusetts

Rhode Island

Connecticut

Washington D.C.

Additionally, some states have "trans sanctuary" executive orders signifying safety for trans folks seeking healthcare. These states are:

Maryland

New Jersey

New York

Living as a resident in these states means you are protected by state's rights and state government to continue or begin receiving trans healthcare. These laws have been codified in their states so everything has been a-ok'd by their state governments.

Stay alive. You got this. I love you.
