Just kiss me quick 'cos it's my birthday

Love you all.

I am too tired to write anything much. Spoon Event Horizon is ongoing. I just wanted my top entry to be something less angstridden, and also to quote and link you to [livejournal.com profile] slave2tehtink's particularly fine feminism rant.

I want a feminism in which women, cis and
trans, white women and women of color, poor women and wealthy women,
able-bodied women and disabled women, we can all stand shoulder to shoulder
and get each other's backs. I want to a movement that asks women "What do
you need? How can I help you get it?" and then listens to and trusts the
answer; trusts women to know how feminism could help them.


ME TOO, PETUNIA, ME TOO. WHAT SHE SAID. And a pony plz.
If you read anything today, click over and read the entire thing. While I'm here, I also want to quote and link her equally fine Social Justice 101: I'm Going to Disneyland.

Happy Birthday Liz.

I know the past year has been full of challenges for you, but you're an inspiration. Here's hoping the thyroidy thing sorts itself out soon.

Happy Birthday, Liz!

Be kind of a late present, but I might very shortly have some obscenely cute photos of Labrador puppies to share around...
