I remember saying "I want to be a boy" when I was four years old. I'm now 34 and the only difference is realizing that I've always been one; I just didn't have a word for it for 17 YEARS after four-year old me first uttered those words. Trans kids KNOW who they are

It's so strange seeing everyone say over and over again that there's no such thing as a trans kid when I literally was one. I was homeschooled and I still told my parents I was a girl at eight years old. They were doing conversion therapy on me years before I met a trans person for the first time.

Yeah, they actually do; considering IDF enlistment is mandatory in Israel, chances are super high that all them were/are IDF soldiers who helped oppress Palestine. Fuck every single one of them

Hope MAGA parents with special needs kids know who to blame for this. THEY voted for the man who just did untold damage to their kids' education prospects. Their kids deserve better than their parents 🤦‍♂️

Just to be clear:

Trans people are the working class. Black people are the working class. Immigrants are the working class. Pregnant people are the working class. Brown people are the working class. Asian people are the working class. Disabled people are the working class.

Oh, I was wondering about that, because I applied for an invite months ago and never heard back; I thought I missed it or just didn't get the e-mail or something 😅
