  • Summary

  • In this edition of the show, Elle talks about the idea of the 24/7 news cycle, and how it creates predictable waves of outrage throughout our culture, and into our lives. She reflects on the common denominators of the cycle as described by author Mark Manson (from the Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck) in a ⁠block post⁠, and explores how these dynamics are uniquely experienced by trans and gender expansive people. Elle talks about her experiences of feeling pressure to "have a take" when the news cycle hits, and anxiety about how that take or lack of a take may be received.

    Some of the resources discussed in the show include:

    • ⁠Better, Faster, Farther,⁠ by Maggie Mertens
    • The work of ⁠Erin in the Morning⁠
    • ⁠Church Redwood Trees Scandal⁠
