Joy is resistance. The small moments, the big moments, it all counts.

Deliberate joy is radical.

I’d say that talking about sports or pop culture online helps democratic causes remain connected to the broader society. Why make it seem like only authoritarians are allowed to enjoy life?

A black squirrel in a tree says “A life-long commitment to defend democratic values requires us to celebrate life, art and joy, not deny them. Burnout helps nobody.”

I just finally finished these 2 counted cross-stitch projects. I stitched them between 2017 & 2019, but the fabric was folded up with raw edges until this morning.

I used a book called Elizabethan Counted Cross-stitch.

Hanging on a red wall below a staircase:
A long sampler with elaborate counted cross-stitch designs and the words, "OVERTHROW PATRIARCHY."

To the left are 2 framed counted cross-stitch projects:
"SAFE SPACE" in rainbow colors and "Ask me about my feminist agenda" framed in flowers

An ornate counted cross-stitch sampler hanging from a curvy black metal hanger

Amidst the designs of flowers, acorns, strawberries, etc. are the words:
"KEEP BULLSHIT PATRIARCHAL LAWS THE FUCK OFF OUR BODIES" and "ALL ABORTIONS ARE GOOD ABORTIONS."

A view of the 2nd sampler and other decor: next to it is an antique picture frame with no picture, just a flying wooden Indonesian frog.

On the other side of the frog: a long string of colorful Indian pompom art.

Someone we lost touch with, after helping her get started on feminising GAHT about 2 years ago, just reached back out to us :TransFemHeart:

Not only is she doing well and continuing her transition, but she's learnt SO much more about herself in this time, and we're so proud of her 🥰

We do know that we can't help everyone, but that doesn't mean that we haven't helped, aren't still helping, or won't help many other trans+ folk in need of a little guidance or assistance :PleadingFaceWithRedHearts: :TransButterfly:

Honestly needed a little bit of #TransJoy like this right now :TransHeart:

Drew this the other day while trying to process feelings

I know #pride is supposed to be full of #joyasanactofresistance but honestly the closest I can get rn is that yellow/blue swirl memory ball at the end of the film Inside Out

I kinda cant stop weeping in general these days but my joy can use that energy to stay alive if, like at the end of the film, I can manage to stay connected to safe people

a book page torn from an old book used as a drawing canvas and pinned to my wall. i used markers to scribble a rainbow as a background then wrote over it in large black letters lined with white, the words: "never again"

When the news is all horrible, go outside and look for neat rocks. You’ll find some for your pockets, and you might have use of them later.

A toddler in a rainbow jacket and rain boots looks for interesting rocks.

Everything is on fire and yet, #JoyIsResistance. Learning from Cameron Ford and wishing my dog would have been cool participating in this seminar. #DogsOfMastadon
