one of the pages for a class project- i asked a few people what they loved about being trans. this was my fav 

“god made me transsexual the same reason he made wheat but not bread and fruit but not wine, so that humanity may delight in the act of creation”

As others have pointed out in the notes, that is a quote from Julian K. Jarboe. It is in their book “Everyone on the Moon is Essential Personnel” and also quoted in Daniel M. Lavery’s “Something that May Shock and Discredit You”

“In college I had a physics professor who wrote the date and time in red marker on a sheet of white paper and then lit the paper on fire and placed it on a metallic mesh basket on the lab table where it burned to ashes. He asked us whether or not the information on the paper was destroyed and not recoverable, and of course we were wrong, because physics tells us that information is never lost, not even in a black hole, and that what is seemingly destroyed is, in fact, retrievable. In that burning paper the markings of ink on the page are preserved in the way the flame flickers and the smoke curls. Wildly distorted to the point of chaos, the information is nonetheless not dead. Nothing, really, dies. Nothing dies. Nothing dies.”

Home now, after a long morning and many pictures. Starting with this one because I had never seen sunlight come through a tree and do this before!

There is no imperfection

the concept goes against our very existence

[yidquotes]

“All of life is a miracle – and we are not truly alive unless we grasp the miracle of our being. Three times a day Jews give thanks in our prayers for “Your miracles which are with us every day.” Recognizing God’s involvement in every aspect of our lives and acknowledging His benevolence in His blessings to us adds enormous meaning to life. It took me a long time to grasp that the word miracle does not simply refer to the splitting of the sea or the sun standing still; it has far greater meaning as the measuring tool of our lives and the awesomeness of every part of our existence which we far too much take for granted. That’s why I don’t merely believe in miracles – I live them every moment of my life.”

— Rabbi Benjamin Blech

Love that everyone collectively and without words agreed to not be normal about this

I do like that this pandemic has got us all greeting each other like Jane Austen characters- “You are well, I hope? And your family? All in good health?”

[ID: Two black-and-white cats are photographed from the ground, up close. They are standing next to each other in the sun. They are so close that the bigger cat's chest is touching the shoulder of the smaller one. Their tails are upright, meaning they are happy. They are standing on concrete ground. In the background, a concrete wall, a patch of grass and a blue sky with a few clouds is visible. End ID]

A bush of roses is visible behind her in the second gif. She is wearing round sunglasses and a red coat. Phryne keeps an eye on her surroundings and wears an impatient and careful look on her face.
