please bring my kid some magic for xmas.
i'm not a big tweeter, rarely chip in on trends, have only grubbed for rts here once.
but this one is from the heart.
please my friends, if you tweet, rt this.
my kid and i are not on the best of terms atm, but when i saw this terf shit trending today, and attached to one of the biggest happy places of her childhood, it just tore my heart apart. i know she is in tears, and i am not there to dry them.
i am quite sure i am not alone in this particular pov here.
(it wouldnt hurt mom's feelings for her to see this, either.)
