A lot of people treat trans guys as "men lite" or a "non-man" even in progressive spaces as a means to not tie us to cis men bc they just...don't talk to enough trans guys or read from enough trans guy writers and just don't know how to talk about us w/o coming off as kind of weird

It should be needless to say, but it is perhaps at this moment worth saying, that transgender individuals have the same right as anyone else to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

There was this MSNBC commentator, who said that Charlie Kirk died from the hate and divisiveness that he has fostered himself for years - he got fired for it.

Man, and I just started at this job. I don’t know how any of my coworkers feel about trans people, or our rights, or anything. I’m legitimately worried about going to work. Ugh I hate feeling like this.

I feel guilty for not being as loud and active the past few months.
I’m trying to find a balance of “be the revolution” and “stay quiet and protect your family” and it’s really eating away at me inside.
Anyway, I think I’m back?
