It's the 5-year anniversary of my book coming out! So I'm doing a giveaway of my last hardcover (RT & like this tweet to enter) & a thread highlighting 17 (!!) other great books that explore gender bias in medicine published in the last 5 years... harpercollins.com/products/doing… 1/19

@siyemasibuta I'm a writer working on an article about how rewatching TV shows helps us feel better. Would you be open to sharing a thought or two about how it makes you feel to rewatch your favorite characters on Friends?

@roseveleth Relate to this so much(!) (the comic, and also what you said). I hate telling people my name, but I don't have a better one. I hate when people ask my pronouns — it all feels like anxiety and a ~burden~ on others and a nothing-quite-fits situation

@amyjccuddy "Invisible - How Young Women with Serious Health Issues Navigate Work, Relationships, and the Pressure to Seem Just Fine" by @Lent_Hirsch completely changed my worldview and is still one of my favourite books.

@maragrunbaum I was coincidentally just thinking of you yesterday (!) — remembering how helpful it was loooong ago at @janagrc's house to talk about the chewed-up-by-a-machine aspects of publishing a book. Covers + subtitles + all the rest. (Hello to you both!)

@Dahlialithwick raves about "the smells and images, pains and joys" from "these voices of our future." @ruth_messinger says: "Deep and powerful, sometimes disruptive and disturbing, but most often hopeful and life-affirming . . . Don't miss this." twitter.com/Lent_Hirsch/st…

If you — or a teen you know — want powerful words + art about justice, queerness, the climate, the future, read this anthology by feminist teens. So proud of @emanuellesippy, Maya Savin Miller, and the rest of the @jGirls_Mag teens who contributed. bookshop.org/books/salt-and…

Reproductive health workers are unionizing because the abortion access crisis is a labor crisis, too! Thanks @MorePerfectUS and @rainey_l for including my analysis in this video, featuring @clozilly and many more workers on the front lines
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS

NEW: Following the overturning of Roe v. Wade, Planned Parenthood workers are under tremendous stress and expecting a “tidal wave of need.” Now they’re organizing to protect and improve abortion care by ending chronic understaffing and low wages at clinics.

Or, more specifically, for trans and nonbinary liberation. It's exciting to see a social scientist research things like nonbinary body image + the ways our culture can move toward more expansive ideas of gender.

In the midst of a tumultuous week for human rights, it was an honor to hear about their research as a psychologist and professor fighting for queer and trans liberation.
