“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Meeting Declined Due to Dignity


🖋 SWANK Dispatch | 10 December 2024
“We Will Not Be Attending Oppression on My Birthday”

Dear Kirsty,

Please be advised:

“January 16th won’t work because it’s my birthday and we won’t be home.”

And that’s the most elegant way I can say:
I will not be discussing state-manufactured safeguarding on the anniversary of my birth.
We do not celebrate me by submitting to you.

This was not a refusal. It was a redirection.
A reminder that our time is not yours to schedule.
That joy is not a loophole in your calendar.
That dignity is not up for debate.

I chose peace. I chose breath. I chose cake.
You chose a meeting.

And we simply won’t be attending.
