Tomorrow is the tenth anniversary of the death of Leelah Alcorn. She was a trans girl who was 17 years old when she died.
I want you all to remember her with me.

You study a wooden signboard when entering an unexplored part of the map in a video game, it offers this reassurance:
The bones require no intervention. They are able to rise through the earth all by themselves, and enjoy making their way to a premature resurrection.

Which, you know, relatable. He was just very good at learning the wrong things. Like I left him locked up with a toy filled with peanut butter, and did he learn from this that he could get peanut butter in exchange for being apart? No, he refused to eat peanut butter for the next 6 years

- Instrumental or w/ minimal vocals (e.g. light choral backing)
- Mostly keys and strings, maybe some woodwind
- Sad / melancholy, but in a peaceful way
- Available for purchase, not just streaming

if people’s kids are going hungry and it turns out the money for it went to the gold ballroom and they’re refusing to pay up because they can’t, I think one very particular category of French antiques will be coming back in fashion right quick if you know what I mean
Ain’t no way they would be fighting THIS hard to *not* pay out everyone’s SNAP if they truly had it on hand.

We collected 72 letters. 🏳️⚧️ I am very tired but also very proud.
I am hosting a two-day letter-writing campaign to fight the Indiana BMV about gender markers on IDs.
Last night I got Presbyterian retirees and the cutest trans 20 year olds together over a table of stationary and homemade cookies. It was heartwarming af.

I'm throwing an open house so people can come and write letters to yell at the BMV about the transphobic and discriminatory bullshit they are proposing.
I've got 15 people coming so far, but I'm hoping for more.

Being trans is so funny.
A wacky combination of hilarious social discomfort and well-intentioned misunderstandings AND my elected officials openly premeditating the murder of myself and everyone like me.

Update: I got 414 trick or treaters this year! My favorite costumes of the night were all the versions of Wednesday Addams and an itty bitty tiny kid dressed as the Hungry Hungry Caterpillar. 🥹
I love Halloween. I love handing out candy, seeing kids in costumes...it's the best. The packs of roving teens are my favorite, but the tiny kids who are absolutely terrified to speak to me, a stranger, are also really cute.

Explaining to a particularly elderly nun what fan fiction is, and why I don't see any reason why she shouldn't write some if she wants to.

I can't tell you how devastating it feels to watch the US government put a flag on the USDA website blaming immigrants and trans people for people being denied food.

I would love for a single democrat to reckon with the fact that conservatives are not in fact motivated by reasonable concerns. They are — just as they were with ‘concerns’ over blacks and gays and numerous other minorities over the last five decades — motivated by bigotry.
