Miss Major Griffin-Gracy passed away today according to the House of GG. She was a veteran of the Stonewall rebellion and a lifelong organizer for the safety and dignity of trans people, sex workers, and the incarcerated. She came from the same generation and milieu as Marsha and Sylvia. She was 78.

Miss Major is an incalculable loss for the trans community and a reminder that our movement is always led by Black trans women. Always.

May we all prove to be worthy students of her example.

Rest in power, Miss Major.

Thanks! I'll make it through alright, with a little bit (a lot) of complaining

Tzor @basaltbrain.bsky.social · 1d

when this film is done, I kind of want to compile Casting Call into a zine, fix up some of the earlier pages before I had the style nailed down, and add some tasty new extras...

I'm now on my 3rd, worst deadline. Got a 6-minute animation short to finish by the end of the month, and this production has been haunting me all year basically. Going to be in full on crunch for the next two weeks and then, maybe then, I can finally have some time off.
