Quote by Toba Beta

“Honestly, I don't really care whether Jesus had ever walked upon planet earth or not. I'm only interested in three great ideas about his life as described clearly in the bible: 1.

At times you even forget that you forgot. The thought had yet not entered your conscious mind- it was just hovering between the sleeping world and the awake, and just falls off the edge. Never makes it. Yes they are flighty things.” She rounded it with a peal of laughter, amused with the little story she had concocted.”

“In 2022, more than three years after stopping puberty blockers, Jacob is 19 and still trans. He uses a male name and male pronouns, and dresses in a way that he says is typically male.
