- I grew up queer in a small rural village in North Yorkshire. My past research has always tried to navigate the complexities of growing up surrounded by homophobia, without out queer & trans ppl or community. But also not wanting to homogenise the idea of what our communities must inherently be like

- It’s really disappointing how many academic or even supposedly radical spaces have completely removed online access for events and only seem to host them in London or other major cities. Did we learn nothing about accessibility from the pandemic?

- An integral campaign in my research is ACT UP’s women don’t get aids they just die from it which challenged the limiting definition of HIV/ AIDS in the US by the centre of disease control which denied the specific ways HIV presented in cis women & denied women involvement in treatment research

- Reposted by Lucy Rebecca CannonIt's hard to know what to say or whether it's even worth adding to the doom - what I will say is buy your trans friends' weird zine, their album, their art game - buy them a beer or a soda or a meal - give them some ko-fi money for doing absolutely nothing. We gotta protect trans kids and adults.
