People also donβt know how long kids take blockers for. I didnβt even know and I am the parent of a trans kid and have a trans partner. When they told me it was for a couple years at most I was taken aback. So much mythologizing.

Reminder that Aaron Swartz was facing 35 years in prison and financial devastation for trying to programmatically download and open the contents of JSTOR, which led to him taking his own life.

Consider not saying "art SHOULD" but "art CAN" and see all the different, new things that result. You might not like all of them. Probably won't. But that's ok, that's life. And art.
