Incredibly proud of my fellow Minnesotans who are still showing up and showing out today.
Sending such love and strength to all those who are still sheltering in place and can’t get out there.

there’s a non-zero chance that queer and *especially* trans voices wind up being temporarily silenced at some point over these next 4 years.

No, this isn't an exaggeration in any way. Trans Erasure is going to be part of banning all porn (mentioning LGBTQ+ will be considered porn) and establishing a national firewall (information control).
