Dear #GBT2019, I am so tired y'all. But you know what? I've managed to attend the last panel using the Double robot. That means I get to be in a separate space and there at the same time.

“I think every movement we’re a part of can be a movement on campus,” the task, for Spade, is how we articulate these movements on campus to bring students into contact with the material reality of the institution because students are also struggling with these issues. #GBT2019

“I did not give you an academic paper: I gave you an activist pamphlet, because the world is ending, and it doesn’t matter,” which is an interesting take, but it needs to be recognized (which Spade did) that an activist pamphlet works on some audiences but not others. #GBT2019

Media control as a tool of surveillance, control of public opinion, and representation of "undesirables" - Trump administration is doing all this and more: the removal of information and a steady stream of lies and misrepresentation on a number of topics #GBT2019

"When targeted people claim the means of survival it's very threatening to the status quo." #GBT2019 Dean Spade Q&A

[Dr. Johnathan Flowers, Sword Bisexual @shengokai]

Spade’s understanding of mobilization is important here in that it involves being constantly curious about the ways in which we are implicated in the marginalization of other people. It doesn’t stop with one act. #GBT2019

“How do you teach what the body is, but also what the body can do?” Leah Roberts is discussing the “excessive” and teaching anal pleasure in sexuality education right now at #GBT2019

Anyone out there at #GBT2019 have thoughts/feelings/opinions about Tumblr? I'd love to talk - come find me!

The norm of narrative form is different but still present on Twitter. It moves and lives in more than a linear beginning, middle and end. It’s collaborative. #GBT2019

"Violence against women is more prevalent than was formerly believed and there was a moral panic - how could this be? What happens to this national ideology?" I love these questions - how does the state address this? #GBT2019 #GBTtweetstorm

.@mpnanney is sharing interesting work from their ethnographic work with trans students at women's colleges #GBT2019 #GBTtweetstorm

Policies created with good intentions and to be inclusive, but "embedded in these policies are insurmountable barriers that determine the right way to be trans or right way to be a woman"; I study this in the military with trans and ciswomen troops, @mpnanney this is great work!
