    For an article I’m working on, I’m looking for publications, organisations, or activists who have used trans-inclusive language when talking about the decriminalisation of abortion in England and Wales earlier this year. If you have LITERALLY ANY EXAMPLES, please drop the links below, or email them to quinn@quinnrhodes.co.uk – thank you! #Abortion #Trans #UKPol

    For a piece I’m working on, I’m looking to talk to folks involved in community organising about the positives/potential dangers of posting photos of protests online! Do these photos help encourage people to turn up at protests/get involved in local activism? Or, in an age of increasing government surveillance, is it more likely to endanger people?

    Do you post photos of yourself at protests online? Does seeing photos people post of being at protests on social media encourage you to get involved in local activism? Would you ever *not* go to a protest or event because you were anxious about photos being taken and shared online? If you’re up for talking to me about the positives/potential dangers of posting protest photos on social media for a piece I’m working on, please drop me an email at quinn@quinnrhodes.co.uk! #Activism #Protests

    For a piece I’m working on, I’m looking to talk to trans people about menopause! Do you have feelings about how gendered menopause is? Did experiencing (peri)menopause change how you feel about your gender? Did you know that gender-affirming surgery might make you suddenly menopausal? If this is you and you’re up for answering some questions for me, please drop me an email at quinn@quinnrhodes.co.uk! (And if this isn&amp;#39;t you, please boost this post!) #JournoRequest #Menopause #Trans

    “Fascism thrives when we are isolated from each other, and a concept of self-care dominated by consumerism pushes us towards individualism and self-optimisation.” I wrote about about self-care and community care for indie Scottish culture magazine The Skinny! https://www.theskinny.co.uk/intersections/features/less-self-more-care
