Hey friends,
Hope you're all hanging in there. Sending extra love today to anyone who’s had to mother themselves at any point. I love you!
This is a make-up newsletter for last week. I was down for the count over the weekend with various injuries and illnesses, but I’m more or less back in action today, and wanted to let you know about a few very exciting developments in Gender Reveal World.
First and foremost, we are hiring! I’ve finally come to terms with the fact that I can’t (or shouldn’t) work seven days a week for the rest of my life. So, I’m inviting an associate producer onto our team. The application is at bit.ly/GRproducer, and I’m happy to answer any questions that come up. Please spread the word to your trans audio friends.
In other podcast news, I have almost all of our Season 7 guests booked, and I’m recording our first interview of the season tomorrow. So I might actually make my goal of an early June launch?!?(Especially if I can bring someone on to help?!) I’m super excited about this season and can’t wait to share it with you. There will be surprises, shenanigans and more!
Finally, we’ve got a LOT of new merch in the store this month. I won’t run through it all today, although I do encourage you to peek at the entire store at bit.ly/gendermerch.
Today, I want to highlight our two commemorative Trans Day of Snack designs. The first is by an anonymous contributor, with proceeds going towards housing for a group of Black trans activists. It’s available on a t-shirt up to size 5XL.

Photo ID: A t-shirt with a graphic of a slice of cake. The cake is 3-tiered: pink on bottom, then white, then blue on top. The frosting is white with pink and blue sprinkles. A small flag sticks out of the cake that says “trans day of having a nice snack.”
The other design is by our friend Emma Houxbois, and is available as a mug and a tote bag. Proceeds go to the Gender Reveal grant/mutual aid fund for future days of snack.

Photo ID: a tote bag with the following graphic on it: a pink donut with blue frosting is intertwined with a blue donut with pink frosting. text along the edge of the donuts says “trans day of staying in and having a nice snack 2021.”
But wait! There’s more! I am inordinately proud of myself for this special item: a lil pouch with BOTH Trans Day of Snack designs on it, available in five colors! I already bought one of these for myself, and will post pics once it comes in.


Photo ID: a light blue pencil pouch with the cake design on one side and the donut design on the other.
Thank you so much for being here! YOUR support on this patreon is the only way that I'm able to hire someone to help me with *gestures vaguely at everything.* Thank you thank you thank you THANK YOU.
Here’s your weekly Rhubarb, taken by my roommate.
