Always hydrate

@RANtracker Any word on how far out it is? I’ll be road tripping out there in November and have been concerned about the stretch between green river and Bryce!

[Alex @Alex94255968]

@RANtracker have you heard rumors of a RAN charger in the works for Escalante Utah? A charger there would be HUGE, that area is both a literal and actual charging desert! Super important for park access as well!

@jk_rowling But I would also encourage you to look to your left and right and see the people that support you and what comments they leave. Many are rooted in hate, violence, and anger. Just as I am not aligned with the ones that threaten you, I really hope you are not aligned with the hate.

[Alex @Alex94255968]

@jk_rowling I know you get a lot of hate and threats for your current views, and I am truly sorry. It’s obviously wrong, and I wish you didn’t have to experience that.

[Alex @Alex94255968]

@jk_rowling I really appreciate and value everything you’ve done for women. I believe that you can continue to do that great work in a way that is not at the expense of such a vulnerable group. Trans woman are not the greatest threat to equity right now, it is still, as always, mostly men.

[Alex @Alex94255968]

@jk_rowling Most any time we make generalizations / broad statements about one group, I believe we are on the wrong side of history. People are complex, identities are complex. Actions may be cut and dry, people rarely are

[Alex @Alex94255968]

@jk_rowling Have you ever read Phillip Pullman? This is one of my favorite quotes, "Good and evil are names for what people do, not for what they are... People are too complicated to have simple labels."

[Alex @Alex94255968]

@jk_rowling If you’d ever have any interest in visiting Colorado (It’s a beautiful state!), I would love to introduce you to some really kind trans people that loved your books and would be excited (but likely also a little scared) to meet you.

[Alex @Alex94255968]

@jk_rowling Do you have some trans friends? All of mine are kind, friendly, smart, put together people that I am proud to know. They are not ill, they are happy and living great lives. They don’t harm people in sports, they don’t commit crimes, they don’t assault people.

[Alex @Alex94255968]

@jk_rowling So many people, myself included, would read your books alone at a lunch table in place of a friend and really valued them. It’s hard to see someone that created something so beautiful, that provided such comfort, push such great harm and cause so much pain.

[Alex @Alex94255968]

@jk_rowling It breaks my heart that this is the crusade you’ve chosen, so many of my trans friends loved your books and found so much comfort them as a space for those marginalized, those that felt different.

[Alex @Alex94255968]

@jk_rowling Some trans people do bad things. Some cis people do bad things too. Most trans people just want to live their lives being true to who they feel they are. 100 percent of the trans people I know are friends and family, kind, hard working, and loving people.
