@Impossible_PhD hell. May just be a "today" thing but so much imposter syndrome hitting. Not that she, or you, are wrong. Just

@Dani I hear you. It can be hard to feel like you're enough. I sure know that from experience.

Dani, 16 days ago

@Impossible_PhD yeah. Maybe there's scarcity mindset again but it doesn't feel like there's enough Me for that

Impossible_PhD, 16 days ago

@Dani I promise you there's plenty of you, Dani. 💜

@Impossible_PhD That's just the pushup bra. /joke

@Impossible_PhD Seriously though it just feels like a huge task when I haven't even properly gotten to grips with limited versions of... whatever the fuck I'm doing. 😅

But you know.

Impossible_PhD, 16 days ago

@Dani if you're not ready, that's just fine. Nobody owes anyone activism.

Dani, 16 days ago

@Impossible_PhD It's one of those things where it's Obviously Right.

But.

@Impossible_PhD Argh. And thoughts hatching this morning means I think I need to finish this book this weekend. 😅

@Impossible_PhD
If I read A Short History of Trans Misogyny as a manifesto, I want a better bridge between mujerísima and lo suficientemente bueno.

I read lo suficientemente bueno as a rejection of definition.

And, away from the page at least, that's a difficult rallying cry: "We are not They?" "We will not be Us?"

Finding a unity in difference is a challenge, and at the same time exactly what we need.

Yet rejecting definition is as revolutionary as it gets.

@Impossible_PhD I’ve had it on hold for a while but there’s still 48 people ahead of me in the queue 😭

Great write up, looking forward to reading it.

@Impossible_PhD Hmmm.
Book acquired, will read your thing later.

@Impossible_PhD

Yes.

(And I read your words because I know damn fine I will want to go on the rampage when I can continue the source book.)

Impossible_PhD, 17 days ago

@JuliaRez I mean, that's fair. Short History left me wanting to scream at the moon with rage, but in a good way.
