So it's like, yeah, you feel this guilt and this cushion because you've been systematically set up to be here.
to feel this guilt, but not enough to like do something about it.
Anyway, I could rant for days, but I, I like, I've been reading a lot of history books to like ground myself in some like, you know, the things have been worse and people did more when it was harder and like that kind of stuff.
And that's been really helpful too.
I read this book called Transgender Warriors by Leslie Feinberg.
That's like a history of trans people through space and time.
I'm trans.
I'm not a,
fetishy guy or something.
Um, no, he says, don't listen to him.
Caleb wanted to get a really fetishy guy on the podcast to talk about trans people.
Listen, listen.
And I, I've been begging to get an audience to listen about it.
So thank you for, yes.
Um, but anyway, it's a, it's a really great account of like Leslie Feinberg was like, uh, wanting to like look through history to find themselves in history.
It was actually the conceit going in.
And, um, it was really cool to read just like, Oh, we've existed across,
you know, civilizations and time periods and continents.
And it's just, like, so cool to, like, actually be, like, yeah, all this stuff that's, like, this is new and this is, like, fake shit.
It's, like, no, that's the part that's fake and made up.
