   @mangeurdenuage Your response here tells me that you are probably just trolling, but if you sincerely do not want to harm Leah Rowe, then the easiest thing you can do is to respect her identity when you talk about her.

   Faced with sustained assault from angry reactionaries who want to outlaw trans people, I feel heartened and encouraged to see the federal government finally standing up to defend us. But at a time when humanity is confronted with multiple urgent existential threats arising from our collective failure to live peacefully and sustainably within the ecological constraints of our planet,…
