also like, multiple nontransphobic detransitioners have literally said the exact same stuff i’ve said: that there will never be zero detransitioners, that there need to be more resources for detransitioners and less stigma around detransition, and that the trans community needs to be more supportive of detransitioners. this is not some transmed fallacy this is literally what detransitioners are asking for.

As a Jewish person who suffers from bipolar disorder, I have no sympathy for Kanye West. Bipolar disorder turned me into an apathetic, irresponsible person, sure, but it never turned me into a fucking Nazi. There is no manic episode that could make me shout racist slurs, or spew such vile things. When I was manic, I turned into a promiscuous alcoholic, not a bigot. Turning into a Nazi isn't in the DSM5, I can assure you.

Kanye West has more followers on Twitter than there are Jews worldwide. He is one of the most famous people on earth. The fact he can go on an antisemitic rampage without consequences is terrifying. If you're not a Jew, your Jewish friends need your allyship more than ever right now.

Kanye West isn't an asshole because he's bipolar. He's a racist, antisemitic asshole who happens to be bipolar.

As much as I complain about it, I actually really love writing. 

The satisfaction of one really good sentence is worth slogging through NaNoWriMo and producing thousands of terrible ones. The tiny eureka moments are worth the sleep I lose typing them into my phone after midnight. The accomplishment of writing “the end” is worth the hours that passed by in the rest of the world, while mine was standing still.

Writing takes a lot out of me, but it also gives me a lot, too. Worth it.
