Every now and then I'm reminded how many people these past 7 years have felt increasingly emboldened in their indifference to the loss of rights for queer, feminized, BIPOC, cash-poor, houseless, trans, displaced, foreign, & disabled human beings.

Yesterday a Canadian acquaintance tried to launch a "neutral" defense of P*terson & T*te. Because to him the harm such people do isn't real or relevant.

I was surrounded by *so* many similar folk up north.

No wonder I was sick at heart all the time.
