InQueery #23 Tips on Getting Through The Holidays - Redefining Traditions Can Be a Good Way to Rekindle Love for the Season

Holiday Tips:
1) Giving gifts does not mean spending money. If you are motivated to exchange gifts this season, consider different ways to do that without breaking the bank. Some ideas are homemade gifts like arts and crafts, acts of service, baked goods, knitted gifts, scavenged stones, poems or songs, or memory videos/slideshows.

2) If you want to purchase gifts, please support your local artists, makers, and small businesses!

3) You don't need wrapping paper because you can use newspaper and watercolours! Try replacing bows and ribbons with pine cones and holly.

4) Just in case someone needs to hear this: it's okay to just not. It's okay not to do gifts. It's okay not to decorate. It's okay to skip the ugly sweater party and the eggnog, and it's okay if you don't make a single thing from scratch the entire season. Give yourself grace and permission to excuse yourself from traditions that don't enrich your life.

InQueery #25 - Transgender Day of Visibility March 31st is Transgender Day of Visibility, a day to recognize, honour, and celebrate transgender people everywhere. This day is an opportunity to spread awareness and educate people on the transgender community, their experiences, and the issues they face. It is also a day to recognize and celebrate the accomplishments of transgender individuals and their allies. The trans community has made significant strides in recent years, including passing more inclusive laws and increasing visibility of transgender celebrities and activists. However, the transgender community still faces many challenges. Trans people are disproportionately impacted by violence, discrimination, and poverty. In addition, they often lack access to necessary healthcare and face employment discrimination. This Transgender Day of Visibility is a time to honour the transgender community and raise awareness of the issues they face. Let’s use this day to listen to and amplify transgender voices, support transgender-led organizations, and work towards creating a world where everyone can live authentically and without fear. #inqueery #inqueerynews #charliejohnson #inqueerycolumn #inqueerynewscolumn #saltwire #newscolumb #lgbtnews #halifaxlgbtq #lgbtq #2slgbtqia #queerauthor #awardwinning #awardwinningcolumn
