Content warning: anti-trans rhetoric & legislation, swearing.

Talking points:

(0:00 - 2:07) Garden dreams
(2:08) The frustrations of seeking healthcare while trans; finding trans joy where it is
(5:43) Despair over Tennessee's anti-drag bill; hope in the defiance of drag performers like Bella DuBalle
(12:42 - end) We will resist — but I dream of rest. How do each play our part in cultivating rest and wholeness for all?
