corollary: the canon of stuff we read in queer/trans studies about transness is overwhelmingly white and doesn't have great racial politics; decolonizing and de-whitening our field is absolutely essential
a lot of trans scholarship from 2015 forward actually whips ass and if a course doesn't want to cite anything recent regarding transness then they're almost certainly fucking up big time
“white feminism did not change the gendered distribution of labor, it merely outsourced it to black women. Paraphrasing this claim, I argue that when gays and lesbians adopted a gender normative model of homosexuality, they outsourced the deviance status to gender variant individuals” (Katri, 2017) damning tbh
anti-discrimination law w/r/t transness as it's currently pursued threatens to outsource "deviance" once more, to non-passing trans folks, or trans folks without stable employment, or trans PoC, or to GNC people who don't ID as trans, or to non-binary people, or to trans people who can't or don't want to medically transition in one or more ways

meta? not really a subtoot, but an earnest fyi
You can upload an avi before you start following people. You can toot before you start following people. This isnt twitter where if you're not following and followed you're completely isolated. The moment you create an account you're already in a posting community.

Let's be real, Elon electrocuting an elephant in front of a big audience would be right in line with all of his past behaviors at this point.

I'm in tech and it feels weird.
