This last week, on a trip, while talking with several extended family members, I noticed that I was hearing the same tone in a lot of the conversations.

It was very ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿ™Ž๐Ÿ™…๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ค๐Ÿ˜ฉ...

My partner and I also took psychic chip-damage from unintentional/passive transphobia and sexism throughout the trip.

In response, I decided that it's time to double down...on being kind.

Sure, I'll still loudly call out bullshit when I see it, but I decided that I need to redoubleโ€”neigh ๐Ÿดโ€”retriple my efforts to be kind and helpful and wholesome(-ish) to everyone.

Because being kind to someone when they need it most is worth more to the community than me yelling at conservatives (but still, fuck those guys).

*this toot may have also been inspired by watching K-Pop Demon Hunters for the third time.
