activism

You can’t just sit there and post links; you can’t just talk a big game. You have to walk the walk. Want to make the world a better place for us? Start listening to — and stop stonewalling — the women by your side.

This is fancy talk for “holy shit, I cannot make peace with my body today or ever, because this body is telling the world I’m a woman when I’m actually not.”

Being both a mother and an activist can be tricky sometimes. Often, they seem to be at odds with each other. I can’t drop everything to show up for a protest, or meeting, because I have to find childcare, and my kid goes to bed at 6:30 PM. I have to consider my child’s safety when I make the decision to engage in a protest, or a direct action, even if she isn’t in attendance with me.

Paranoia shrinks the world around you so that you seem larger.

Critics say call-out culture is mean-spirited and bullying. Not so fast.

The trans community knows that police violence against us is a deadly serious issue. The problem is that nobody else knows that.

I wanted to create guidelines for myself about how to navigate non-oppressive BDSM that I hope would be helpful for other marginalized subs.
