It's going to take a lot courage but courage is contagious. Refusing to live in fear is freedom in a fascist state. That doesn't mean you can't feel afraid, but it means overcoming it. It means putting your job, your livelihood, your comfort on the line. Solidarity for others is paramount.

Do not do the devil's work for him. Until there are legally enacted rules under the APA that are upheld by the courts, do not obey in advance. These are meant to intimidate trans people. It won't work.

We will not go away or disappear. Deal with it.

The president is not a king. Make them actually enforce this. Force them to actually have to do the work instead of using fear and intimidation. Do not follow unjust and immoral laws
Be ungovernable. We will outlast and outlive these bastards.

I love NIN, and I'm deeply inspired by Year Zero. The whole concept album is fantastic, and the ARG-style marketing for the album was so cool. You can bet on me using this sort of interactive marketing for a future book.
