Fuck vote blue no matter who. If all this madness isn't enough to get the Democrats to field a candidate who can support trans rights and be against genocide they're telling me they don't want my vote and I'm happy to oblige.

I'm not voting for a more polite Trump. Full stop.

Men who engage in DL behavior typically do not change their ways as long as they can continue to avoid consequences. Often, these men only change after being publicly outed or when they reach an age where their reputation is so damaged that no one is interested in them.

In the DMV area, the administration has been inadequate, leading to job losses, layoffs, and a government shutdown. We are all facing a crisis and desperately need assistance. Without income, we cannot pay our bills. My heart goes out to everyone affected. #DonationsNeeded #TonaBrown #DMV

We need to share advice with women on the type of men to not only stay away from, but also who we should date as transgender women. #conversationsafterdarkwithtonabrown #wordsofadvice #tonabrown #positivemasculinity #goodmen

As a transgender pioneer in the arts, I can't tell you how tired I am of seeing my sisters being unalived in the streets. On Patreon, I'm giving trans women advice on things to look out for with these DL and Toxic men. #podcast #snippet #tonabrown

Storytime: One of the guys I truly loved was a local rapper who helped me feel comfortable in my own skin and explore my sexuality with men. He was one of the best lovers I've ever had. Unfortunately, he passed away after we lost touch with each other. #goodmen #positivemasculinity #tonabrown

Prices are up under Donald Trump, but he doesn’t “want to hear about affordability” from you!

Please share our GoFundMe campaign with others as we meet our goals to sponsor young artists like Chloe Campbell. A $30.00 donation can make a difference in a young person's life during these difficult times. $300.00 gets them 1 on 1 private instruction and an opportunity to perform.
Please help our students and donate 25.00 to our Gofundme campaign to help families without work during the shutdown. Congratulations to our scholarship recipient Chloe Campbell! 7 artists sponsored 10 more to go! gofund.me/ccfb1251a

Visibility within the trans community is a source of strength, but there is an urgent need for broader support from the general public. It is crucial to advocate for and uplift trans individuals and businesses operated by trans people during this vital time. WE need your help! #transawarenessweek
