The next time any of you scumfucks want to tell me Hillary would be just as bad as trump, I don't see him saying a goddamn thing about the Transgender Day of Remembrance, but instead he's continued to attack my loved ones and I since day one of his presidency.
Literally- day one - where he attacked trans children by stripping them of legal protections in schools. I tend to be fucking furious around this time of year, because almost nobody acknowledges the day of remembrance, but can't wait for turkey and black Friday deals, oh boy!
Trans people are not your punching bags. We aren't "traps" or a fetish. We are human beings! It is not okay okay to attack trans people just because you're a frail, pathetic little fuck who can't handle the fact that we exist!
...Please take the time to read over the list of this years victims. https://tdor.info/
There are also memorial events in many places today that you can attend, please attend to show your support, as visibility is very important.
The least we can do is honor their memory together - and please, PLEASE speak up and be active whenever you encounter transphobia. Don't make excuses. Don't let it be normalized. TRANSPHOBIA KILLS.

I know we both wish that others, particularly those who would claim to support us, to be our friends, would be the ones to say these things, it's still good to see you standing up for yourself and others.
It is always disheartening to see the lack of acknowledgement from people, both locally and online. I was glad for that memorial in Eureka Springs, though. It was a rather moving experience...it's one thing to read names to myself off of a computer screen, it's another to take the time to get up on a stage with others and vocally memorialize them, one by one..I can't bring any of these people back but I was atleast able to share their names and have more time to think on the lives of each person...
Edit, because i pressed enter too soon.
Thank you for at least having more hope than i could... you make me feel some more, even if i hide it behind snarking and forced giggles over my own awful jokes.
