You should read this article! It’s long, about consciousness and what makes us alive, as well as where we do or should draw that line, and about the ongoing medical mistreatment that people of colour and especially Black people experience in this country.

To just focus on how Jahi and her family got to this moment, nothing that happened to her after her tonsillectomy should have happened. The initial bleeding should have had nurses and a doctor there and intervening. It would never have gone down like that for a white child. The hospital SHOULD be facing consequences for that. And I understand watching that happen and trying to get your child better care, even belatedly. And yeah now we learned more about some of the nature of consciousness and brain function but it shouldn’t have been at the expense of her mobility and ability to communicate. This country is a disaster.

Getting a new follower and finding out they’re a terf is kind of like getting a new follower only to realize it’s a porn bot, but a thousand times worse.

Porn bots don’t give a fuck about my content or who I am, but this terf actually scrolled through my blog and thought, “yes, this is a person whose opinions I’d like to see more of.” It makes me feel super fucking gross and that I’m probably not doing enough to support trans women.

So just for the record: trans women are women. The existence of trans women does not detract from my womanhood or the womanhood of anybody else. This is not a blog for people who believe otherwise. Take your transphobia elsewhere.

And, to my followers: please help me stay accountable. If I reblog something that marginalizes trans people (or sex workers or POC or anyone else), please let me know so that I can make amends.
