Not to be all Boomer about it but turning physical pages and like the scent of an actual hardcopy book just activates something in my brain no ebook can touch.

Buy trans books. Preferably, buy them in hardcopy so they can't be remote deleted.
On that note:
Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day.
Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links.
Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo

Being a trans author is fucking weird right now. Hell is actively unfolding all around us but I still need to be like, "hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book? It won't make anything better, but it's kinda fun?"
So....hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book?

Great magazine 👍
It's a nice way to get away from digital once in a while.
Besides, leave it laying about and guests will think you are smart and shit.

Never going to stop shouting about this. You need to buy trans books now. Especially in hardcopy or DRM free formats.
Don't say "it'll never happen." Look around. It's already happening.

countdown until the big labs start using typewriters motorcycle couriers and hardcopy for all the really important documents

One of my earliest internet memories was being a AOL chatroom troll to the point it got my entire house being banned from AOL. AOL mailed the chat logs in hardcopy to my mom, who promptly grounded me for being an insufferable little shit.
What year did you first post a post that ended up somewhere on the internet?
