The Joyful Choice Updates
Some joyful choices and some updates!
Hey folks! There’s a lot of new people here, so lovely to have you! With full transparency, I’ve been going back and forth on whether The Joyful Choice is a project that I’d like to continue. I think Good Queer News and some of my other advocacy/education projects may be a better use of my time and resources and may have a more helpful impact on the issues that I’m most passionate about. I’m about to spend some time relaxing and reflecting for the high holidays, celebrating my birthday, and seeing some friends and family. I’ll also be pausing paid subscriptions so you won’t be billed for this.
I’m going to do some scheming/planning/soul searching to figure out what I want my plan moving forward to be. In the interim, I just wrote a great piece over on Good Queer News titled “50 things you can do for trans people right now!” that includes a wide range of supportive and joyful activities that might make a difference. Your prompt this week is to pick a few and get crackin’!
This week has been a tremendously, tremendously exhausting and frightening one for the trans folks here in the US. If you’ve got somebody you hold in your heart when you look at my work, send them a little extra love this week. Make sure they know you’ve got your back and you aren’t going anywhere.
All my love,
Ben
