The thing about JKR and telling folks not to buy Harry Potter shit is it isn't because we think it can take away her fortune and platform. She's so rich she would still be rich if she never sold another book It is because it is literally the smallest possible hurdle to clear to value trans lives

Polarization Is Not the Problem | Journal of Democracy
Americans have never been angrier with one another. But polarization is not the disease—it is the response to a revanchist movement seeking to roll back sixty years of social progress.

The morning was misty with light rain. The exit hike followed a path on the river, in an old-growth forest. The last section included duckboards on a bog. The rising sun hovered over the tree tops, light shining through the mist. Protect and restore wetlands! 😉 #NorthKarelia #Nature #Hiking
