Let's talk about this selection of new teen books we just got in at the library. awoo.space/media/qj235v05dBFYf

@Vavassor OMG.

PROTECTING YOUR TRANS RIGHTS WITH KILLING MACHINES

@Nine Isn't it? More trans reference books than *existed* when I was a teen (that's probably not true but it felt like it), fabrication, and my fav, the book on careers in gaming. It's too perfect.

@Nine Honestly I'm so happy for this new generation of trans teens. Things aren't perfect but the resources that are available now are so much better than even just ten years ago.

@Nine Hard saaaame. There's so much garbage out there in the world right now, but there's a lot of grassroots organizing (ethernet-cable organizing? there's got to be a tech equivalent to grassroots) and support, too.

That intergenerational support is SO important, especially since our community is missing almost an entire generation due to the AIDS crisis. Support across ages is so important right now.
