Seen above with Dylan Mulvaney just last night, Judy Blume recently went out of her way to praise Gender Queer and light up Ron DeSantis for his attacks on the LGBTQ community, so it was definitely eyebrow-raising when The Sunday Times published an interview headline that read “I’m behind JK Rowling 100 per cent.” Turns out, Blume was taken out of context by UK journalist Hadley Freeman, who is no stranger to transphobia. The beloved author took to Twitter to set the record straight that she supports the trans community and “anything to the contrary is bullshit.” Get ‘em, Judy. (Vulture)
