Quotes by Jules Gill-Peterson (?)

“Lately I've reflected on how brittle I've become, at least by some measures. When the stakes are set so permanently high as life or death, catastrophe or salvation, it's difficult to front the cost of vulnerability, including the vulnerability needed to inhabit uncertainty or tender provisional thoughts.”
― Jules Gill-Peterson, A Short History of Trans Misogyny
