Before Rob was deemed as a mistake, he didn’t really have friends, did he? I mean if someone had cared about him, he wouldn’t have been banished, right? So, do you think, he ever just… Kind of looked at Steve’s office’s door, wondering if he should say something? If he should ask for help? It’s so easy to imagine him just slowing down a bit as he passes the door, walking down the hallway, perhaps going home after a lonely day at school, a home, where no one cares. Do you think that maybe, if he would’ve just knocked on that door one day… Things could’ve turned out different?

i'll never understand why some people have a problem with trigger warnings. if the content being warned for doesn't bother you then you can just use it as a recommendation. literally where is the problem. everyone wins.

the thing that bugs me the most about the censoring of the internet to please advertisers is like… tv shows aren’t having less sex and violence in them. movies aren’t having less sex and violence in them. HBO can do eight seasons of graphic murder and nudity and it’s the cultural phenomenon of the decade, but I can’t show a nipple on tumblr or talk about death on tiktok. it’s not that the internet is becoming “safer,” it’s just making these topics a privilege only for very rich people, and putting it behind a paywall for everyone else.

“I had considered myself an ally, but the hours I spent speaking to different trans people over the last year made me realize how passive that definition can be.”

In today’s Q&A on Longreads, Mailee Osten-Tan — who wrote this week’s in-depth Longreads feature on gender confirmation surgery in Thailand — shares what she learned while reporting this story over the past year. Mailee spoke with over a dozen of trans women from the U.S., the U.K., Norway, and other countries about their experiences with various Thai surgeons, who are renowned for their skill and expertise.

A self-trained documentary photographer, Mailee took all the images you see here, and in the Q&A shares her own philosophy on taking photos. She also offers advice for other journalists who tell the stories of people in marginalized communities, and shares what attracts her to a project.
