The photo is a 1974 photo of Leslie Feinberg, from the FBI file on hir. I've written a piece on my interpretation of Transgender Warriors and Trans Liberation, but I don't think it's quite polished enough, so I'll post it later. Instead, I'll go over hir FBI file: https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/dc-metro/rg-065/6282555/Batch0010/6282555_100-HQ-480756.PDF.
The FBI thought Feinberg could be violating the Communist Control Act, advocating the overthrow of the government, and engaging in rebellion. Needless to say, a hero to all of us. Feinberg was a member of the Workers World Party (the party still exists, but more notably PSL split from it), which apparently wasn't openly advocating for the overthrow of the U.S, they just think it's inevitable.
My favorite line? "captioned subject is believed to be a white female, who became male through some kind of sex change operation, and is possibly homosexual". Some interesting language choice, and it's an interesting snapshot into the evolution of Leslie's identity.
The FBI found Leslie's place of birth and birthdate from public school records. It's a bit of an interesting look into all of the many places the FBI can get their information, along with how information like that was so much more patchwork before the digital age.
"Interview of subject is not being recommended because of the questionable nature of his sexuality". Hmm, interesting.
It's interesting how their investigation spanned multiple cities, from Kansas City to NYC to Bufffalo to Boston. It probably involved quite a few officers, though I'm sure it wasn't the main focus for all of them.
There's some interesting mention about changes in Leslie's gender identity. Born a girl, for a time wearing a beard and mustache, then going back to "she". I'm sure we all know, Feinberg's gender didn't stop evolving there.
"Subject reportedly contributes all extra money to WWP", Leslie definitely was dedicated to the cause. Leslie doesn't attend NYC WWP meetings, but the FBI doesn't mention why.
The FBI isn't immune to typoes, Leslie did some "criminal terspass" that garnered some attention.They wasted some time checking if Leslie was in Boston, but verified where Leslie in NYC lived by pretending to be a part of the Voter Registration Commission.
There's a whole 43 pages of documents, all just from 1974-75. There's plenty of interesting tidbits in there, so maybe check it out.

tfw dry skin
oh god yeah, my hands start peeling when autumn begins
it's a good excuse to wear cute gloves though 
hand cream can help too
I have some but am bad about using it as frequently as I should because the texture of having goop on my hands gives me sensory issue ick
I end up washing a bunch of kitchen stuff and washing my hands a ton too taking care of cats so my hands get really bad
Have some cute gloves for when it gets chilly tho
I understand, I have sensory issues too and hate slimy hands too. It sounds similar to me, hopefully you can get something that helps, but if not can maybe use dish gloves if those don't cause issues too ofc
Everyone should have a pair!
The dish gloves also give me ick to put on and every size I've tried is either too tight or too baggy
On the bright side, the weather here's cooled off enough to wear my favorite coats and hoodies and the pants that make my butt look good
Can be like that for me, I tend to not use them too
Same here, the weather here is a little cooler, looking forward to the fall coming in so I can layer up. I got a cool distressed look black hoodie the other day so looking forward to wearing that c:
shoutouts to having nice pants that show off thicc thighs and butt c:
Been fighting to keep my lips from being cracked for at least a few weeks. Have not been very successful. I had got them okay for like a day, but that was ruined by an allergic reaction to a dog. Hands have been pretty okay at least (bad = can get blood out of cracks imo and its a fair bit away from that)
Do you have some chap stick or lip balm? Can also use petroleum jelly in a pinch that's baring allergies
I've been using them all day long.
Has it not helped much? I'm sorry :/
Its helped I think. Just not as enough. Perhaps I'm also inconsistent in staying hydrated? I think I tend to either drink way too much or not at all.
I would think it's a lack of hydration which can be hard to keep on top of. I habe to remind myaelf to drink more c:
Part of my problem is using CPAP. It ends up pushing air through my mouth while I'm asleep at times and that really dries them out.
Ah I see, that would nake sense, I'm sorry that it dries them out :/ is there anything that can be done to reduce the drying out, would adjusting the humidity of the mask or making sure it isn't leaking or if it needs readjusted?
