I'm so happy to share my first story for the @NYTmag. My colleague @meghier and I wrote about how researchers are working to rebuild Brazil's National Museum's Indigenous collection after a tragic fire destroyed an important part of the country's heritage. https://t.co/qfZCbvOMeY

When people ask me what I mean about wanting mutual aid a lot more than I want more self-care, this is (part of) what I mean:

@RDembroff Being outed is an absolutely horrible feeling. I'm so sorry you went through it.

And I know polyphobia won't be as strong forever. Just as there is more acceptance for queerness and genderqueerness, there will be more acceptance for non-monogamous relationships. But right now, I'm frustrated by how the world sees us.

[Anabelle Weissinger @anabellewwrites]

Ran into a TikTok incident when I called someone out for being polyphobic--long story short, it wasn't great. So even though this is my professional account, I want to openly say that I am polyamorous. Because hiding that would be the same as hiding my transness and queerness.

[Anabelle Weissinger @anabellewwrites]

I may write about it at some point, in the same way I've written about being nonbinary--openly, honestly, and for the sake of educating people who don't understand us.

@quartzpetals thank you

For those of us on the ground in states trying to figure out how to help connect folks to providers to fill gaps in care created by cruel, targeted bans, this is a constant, increasing threat.

I don't think it's a coincidence that the state with the most private prisons refused to let its citizens vote on recreational marijuana

Happy Mabon! It's one of my favorite days of the year for several reasons, and I will love to share them with you in celebration of the new season.

[Anabelle Weissinger @anabellewwrites]

All of this to say: Happy Mabon! Have a wonderful harvest and a lovely fall🍂

[Anabelle Weissinger @anabellewwrites]

As with all Pagan holidays, it's also an opportunity for a feast! Mabon in particular centers apples and baked goods.
