I haven't said anything here because I have too MUCH to say, like a whole essay's worth of thoughts and feelings, and that's a lot to subject you all to—plus All You Can Ever Know is one of the many books affected by the sale, and I've been told nothing. I am, to be real, sick with anxiety over it.

🌟Call for sports fans🌟 I am looking to interview queer fans of men's sports about how their identity affects/engages with their relationship to sport! This is for a book project on queerness in high-level sports. If this sounds like you, hit my line (DM's or replies) and I'll get in touch!

The 12th(!) Gender Reveal grant cycle is now open for applications! As always, these funds are for organizing / community projects led by trans people of color. We are particularly interested in funding existing projects that materially support trans folks, queer people of color, immigrants, etc.
