as a fellow Public Library Enthusiast i am begging people to consider the fact that not everywhere has an accessible public library or indeed public libraries at all. just saying “get a library card” at strangers when you have no idea about their background or their life isn’t very helpful. let them pirate in peace

ok that post about how if you never shave nobody will care and it'll be totally fine and you'd be surprised by how little persecution you experience is making me feel insane. i can't imagine how much of a nightmare it would be if i suddenly stopped shaving my face or my chest for work. are you seriously suggesting there would be no significant issues if i as a trans woman just didn't shave my face and carried on working at the NHS? none of you would last a minute as a trans woman. fuck off

also it's bizarre seeing transmascs continue to do the "actually only cis men/cis people benefit from transmisogyny" song and dance like every trans guy on t hasn't spent the last fucking decade doing the "do you really want somebody with FACIAL HAIR in the WOMEN'S ROOM??" bit ad infinitum

you can post this blatantly true image & someone crawls out of the corner to say "🤓👆ermmm actually technically snowfall isn't at its peak until [x] month" like i'm stupid & not going to kill them. bring back snow I miss her...

you can't use a library from America if you're not from America and are from a country that has been exploited by America. because if you use the library and you're not from their district the library gets less money (somehow) and will have to close, therefore less socialism happens. because the more things the government does the more socialist it is. this is why you should support the national parks and the postal service and amtrak because if the government does more things it becomes more socialist

"most gender affirming care is actually for cis ppl, isn't that hypocritical?" well they're affirming and reinforcing the societal structure of assigned gender so no actually. if they could they'd want you to get surgery to make you line up with your coercive gender assignment too, and very often they do, especially to kids.

it disturbs me that a significant number of people think that the issue with sexual violence, gendered violence, and misogyny is sexual desire rather than dehumanization, so they are relentlessly suspicious of others' (and their own) desires while simultaneously never at all interrogating others' (and their own) dehumanizing beliefs about other people, both within and outside of sexual contexts

I am afflicted by Nuance. I fear it may be terminal. well okay, not necessarily "terminal" per se, but

This zine aims to be a conversational guide, toolkit and love letter for Black people that mask and take COVID/virus precautions. We face unique issues including difficulty with mask fitting, (hair)styling and access to resources. These topics are discussed with other Black people but are not easily found in mainstream COVID resources. This zine centers info sharing in a more accessible, sharable way.

The main sections are "Mask Fitting and Fixes!", "Self Expression & Hairstyling with Masks!" and "Dreaming, Masking & Staying Grounded". Sabrina draws on her experiences of masking as a Black disabled person and love of mask & COVID resource distribution. The pages are full of detailed virus safety information along with mask comparison charts, vibrant illustrations and styling examples from the author.

44 pages, half-letter booklet on glossy 80-lb paper.
