11/8/18 discussion about Emile Ratelbrand and age identity

Here is the link to my November 8, 2018, Twitter thread discussion about Emile Ratelbrand, a man who criticized the concept of gender fluidity by claiming that age should also be considered fluid.

Considering that I am not only a transvestite but also an ageplay fetishist, Ratelbrand's public actions touched on a lot of themes that take up a lot of my thought. I still agree with pretty much everything I said in this thread.

Twitter's platform has twisted each of my threads through 2018 and 2019 out of chronological order. This thread is affected, but is still moderately coherent. My apologies.

Thank you for reading. Please enjoy.

3/29/18 review of talk by CeCe McDonald and Joshua Allen


Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of a March, 2018, talk given by CeCe McDonald and Joshua Allen at the University of Colorado Denver on the Auraria Campus.

The thread gives a summary of the talk and some context on McDonald, Allen, and their Black Excellence Tour. The thread discusses a lot of themes from the talk, such as helping LGBTQ people in our own families, checking in with our friends, starting locally with helping LGBTQ people, questioning our own privilege, the disproportionate violence trans people of color face, and the media visibility of trans people today.

The tweets in some of my threads have been twisted out of chronological order by Twitter's platform. This thread's coherency has been moderately affected. My apologies.

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the CU Boulder's 2016 TRANSforming Gender Conference.

This thread discusses some of the themes of the conference, such as gender in society; HIV and trans communities; the health risks of marginalization; trans people of color; the need to work for equality for everybody; activism and self-love; what inspires activists; trans and queer couples; trans and undocumented people; being genderqueer; and coming out to families.

The thread also mentions people like Nevaeh Anderson, CeCe McDonald, Jenicet Gutierrez, Tiq and Kim Milan, Rebecca Dunham, and Izzy Ahee.
