That's beautiful

I'll be attending #WisCon, the oldest and most well-known #feminist #SFF #conference online on May 23-26. This year, it's online-only, and it's also "pay what you can." The standard price is $25, but you can choose to pay less (they recommend $5, but even $0 is OK) if that works for you. I think a high attendance to help demonstrate that people value online conferences benefits us all.

Just discovered the company I've been working at for 5 months is NOT #LGBTQ friendly AT ALL.

From the CEO saying "there's only 2 genders, it's just biology" to my direct boss making a typo and adding "lol sorry just talked like feminists do" I'm now sure some career changes are coming

Les féministes t'encouragent à quitter ton mari, tuer tes enfants, pratiquer la sorcellerie, détruire le capitalisme et devenir trans-pédé-gouine d'Alex Tamécylia est un manuel acerbe, féroce et très drôle. Qu'est ce que j'ai ri ! L'humour fait un bien fou et relit les un.es aux autres, fait communauté tout en permettant un pas de côté.
Je conseille vivement ce petit livre tout rose.

This book sounds absolutely fascinating. Women's uncompensated labour deserves more attention and discussion.

Thinking about all the spaces I have been pushed out of over the years due to disablism, misogyny, and/or anti-queer hostility... and how similar the operating logics are for each. How many times have I asked people to implement a masks-required policy only to be told that there's no one in attendance who needs that? Well surely, because they won't be able to come until you implement this policy. #MaskUp #StillCoviding #Disability #Queer #Trans #Feminism
