I’m going through all the lit mag submissions on #TransJoy rn and they’re so beautiful 🥲 I honestly wish I could always pay contributors to ATJ. #Goals! In the meantime, I’m happy we get to share more trans creators on a platform that doesn’t usually center us, and compensate folks, too.

Why shouldn't joy be your everyday reality?
This is what I wish for you: That your most vibrant and inspiring dream-worlds can become your reality. Why shouldn't it be real? Why shouldn't you get to live it?

Hey y’all, I could use some community mind-melding on this one. I generally run ATJ in my tiny amount of spare time, and it’s hard sometimes to find trans creatives to feature. Not because there aren’t a bajillion amazing ones, but the constant outreach can take a toll... [Continued in comments] 🙏🏼

Celebrating Transgender History Month with an audio book review of American Teenager: How Trans Kids Are Surviving Hate and Finding Joy in a Turbulent Era by Nico Lang.
From an award-winning journalist comes a vivid and moving portrait of eight trans and nonbinary teenagers across the country, following their daily triumphs, struggles, and all that encompasses growing up trans in America today Media coverage tends to sensationalize the fight over how trans kids should be allowed to live, but what is incredibly rare are the voices of the people at the heart of this transgender and gender nonconforming kids themselves.

For our upcoming trans zine, Rnbwtrout ( @rnbwtrout.bsky.social ) will be making a comic featuring a Mexican-American trans woman’s daily euphoric routines! She has not medically transitioned, giving important representation to those who can’t access or choose not to undergo medical transition. 💖
