If you follow me and you don't support trans people's rights or don't have basic common decency to let people live their lives in peace, then unfollow or block me before I block you.
Because I don't want to know you.

Today is International Trans Day of Remembrance. This is the toughest time in history to be trans and visible in the world, thanks to certain politicians, billionaires, trash media and Evangelicals.
