“a child who keeps secrets to survive becomes a solider in their soul.”
from to the Animorphs
“i was seven years old when I told my first lie, and i still remember how it tasted: salty, savory, delicious, dirty, divine, dangerous, powerful, like freedom. how it came from nowhere, from the empty air, from a secret place inside my body that i’d never even known was there. how it felt electric, alive, like turning a key in a lock and stepping into the light. here was magic. here was escape. here was the power to twist reality with nothing but words, abracadabra alakazam, through the act of speaking, i create. here was shapeshifting, becoming someone else. with a lie you become lovable, at least for a while, until you’re discovered and everything turns to dust once again.”

- FALLING BACK IN LOVE WITH BEING HUMAN is a small gem of a book. It's a series of letters and poems to fellow humans interspersed with prompts for reflecting on these subjects and caring for yourself.
- Thom writes to everyone from fellow trans women to TERFs. Each piece is meditative and filled with love for the humans under the masks. Even when the rage boils through, there is still love at the center of this book.
