My queerness has always been about color, fluidity, acceptance, and expansion so my inner child is having hard balancing that joy with this grief, today. Sending big love to my community - especially our trans siblings. I love you. ❤️ 🏳️🌈
For the first time ever, we're declaring a national state of emergency as LGBTQ+ Americans face extremist attempts to roll back our rights. It's more important than ever we have the necessary resources to stay safe no matter where we are. https://t.co/EcnZgqDDCp

Found out our “Pass the Spark” film for @TheSims was shortlisted for Craft/Art Direction at @TheOneClub #TheOneShow this morning and my inner child is losing her colorful creative mind.

Watching @DirtyJohnUSA and it’s wild how men from this generation follow the same playbook of cheating, gaslighting and financial coercion. Let’s just say my dad is super lucky my Virgo mom doesn’t own a gun. 👀❤️🩹

Shout out to all the straight cis men who have shown me partnership, allyship, friendship, championship, and kindness in work and in life. You’re helping me heal so much. ♥️

Trauma is weird because on the outside I’m a take no shit 40 year old corporate leader but on the inside I’m seven on the playground deeply afraid that no one will want to play with me.

“Fuck it I’ll do it myself” is my go to trauma response. It’s the most honest way for me to see where I’ve lost faith in the system or its people.

One of the things I keep thinking about: if you have to force whyt supremacy/patriarchal norms on people through laws/systemic violence - you must not be very convinced of your actual supremacy. 🤷🏽♀️

@Esqueer_ The big failure of every piece of trans exclusive legislation, there's no way to be bigoted toward trans people that won't also be draconian toward cis people, because segregation is segregation. Won't stop them from trying, but I guess we learn this lesson the hard way

Just saw workplace gaslighting referred to as “weaponized incompetence” today and that’s it 💯. People will straight up choose violence over admitting they’re in over their head.

TW: Birth trauma. Are there any other adoptees who later experienced traumatic labors while giving birth? I’ve long suspected daughter’s birth story was emotionally tied up in my own. #adopteetwitter

One of the most ignored traumas is adoption. Society loves to ignore the well documented trauma of mother and child separation when it is called adoption. It’s all about indoctrination, marketing and propaganda. #adopteetwitter #adopteevoices

Non-adopted people love to debate on the semantics of family separation. If it’s not your lived experience you should be listening not debating or not alling or what abouting or using proximity to any adopted/displaced person. #Adopteetwitter #adopteevoices

Adoptees are the experts in adoption. Not the authors. Not the agencies. Not the parents. Listen to us, please. #adopteevoices #adopteetwitter
