I got pretty emotional over this video. Part of it is a conversation between current day Abigail and her old self when she was still living life as a man, and it resonated with me on a pretty intimate level. As someone who is still pretty early on in her journey, it was really touching to see how far Abigail has come, and how she refutes the internalized transphobia and the doubts she had that were holding her back from transitioning as a dialog with her old self.
It was really good. I can’t stop seeing the concept of phantasms in everything.
I’ve believed for a while now that the majority of people live in a false reality of their own making, and they drag all of us into their nightmare with them.
o shit i missed that judith butler brought out a new book, but their talk with the same name is great
