I was from out on the Island like #CandyDarling, but a much more posh part. A steady reliable babysitter for the kids of household names. In the basement of Studio 54 I was catcalled. I turned around to see the lead singers of two huge bands watching me from a mattress. One of them then cried out "Oh my god! It's the babysitter." then quickly followed by "I never knew you were a guy." I was standing there in just Stevie's sports coat, my gaff hanging from my hand.

Are you a Trans Writer, Actor, or Speaker? Are you a proud and vocal Ally?
Would you be interested in participating in a memorial to the Trans Lives we have lost since the Pandemic?
We will be reading, in a round, my poem including all of the names of those lost in the US 2020-present. The piece will be recorded via Zoom and submitted to several events. We will solicit donations for trans orgs.
Please DM Me if you would like to participate!

My 17 year old trans niece is attending her high school's junior prom tonight in a beautiful blue dress -- in a tiny town in a conservative corner of of a largely rural state.
Even with all the horrible anti-LGBTQ venom being spat out there, there is still hope and beacons of light in this world.

estão só copiando o movimento de extrema-direita dos EUA, só que aqui eles só podem ser palhaços de auditório porque não vão conseguir (vão tentar, mas não vão conseguir) apresentar os projetos de lei como os estados estão fazendo nos EUA
Sitting here in my blue state hoping that a federal judge in a red state won’t rule that my trans kid isn’t allowed to exist. I predicted in the early 90s that there would be a conservative backslide in this country but I cannot believe how extreme it’s become. Help us help our children to survive this. #trans #TransLives #NoH8 #TransRightAreHumanRights

I'm a trans person living in Brazil. And I'm deeply disturbed and worried by what is going on in the USA right now with this all-out attack to trans people lives and rights in many states.
I'm worried and scared for all trans people there. I'm also bracing myself. Lately, the worst of what happens in USA politics, usually happens here in Brazil one or two years later.
Seeing what is happening in the USA feels like a vision of what is coming for us.
To all trans people who live in the USA and see this message:
- We have been fighting for so long, and it seems the hardest fights are still ahead of us. I stand with you. Every inch of our rights they steal, we'll take back, and we'll take more. We'll keep fighting until we live in a world where we can live in peace, with each other, with nature, with ourselves. We're in this together.

Stop playing Wordle! It's owned by the New York Times which is publishing transphobic propaganda. Starting Tuesday, if I see you posting your Wordle scores, I'll be blocking you. #TransRights and #TransLives are more important than a word game.

Devastated about learning of Brianna Ghey’s tragic passing. Children should have every right to express and be who they are without the fear of being murdered by close minded individuals especially peers. I cannot imagine the pain her family is going thru. I only hope that the authorities will actually serve justice and fully punish the two responsible for taking the life of this young woman who had only begun to live her life! #justiceforbrianna #sayhername #briannaghey #translivesmatter #translives #lgbtq+ #lgbt #letjusticebeserved

#translives #protesters take over Oklahoma Capitol over proposed new bills.
Local media reports said the protest was considered to be peaceful. Security let them into the state Capitol, which is open to the public.
It was a PEACEFUL PROTEST.STOP.COMPARING. IT.WITH.JAN.6

Ich war am Wochenende bei einer Tagung zu Weiblichkeiten im Waldschlösschen. Dort habe ich einen Vortrag von Nora Eckert gehört und bin noch immer total beeindruckt. Eine so großartige Mischung aus Offenheit, Witz und Poesie, nicht nur ich, alle im Raum waren völlig bezaubert. Werde jetzt unbedingt ihre Autobiografie lesen: Wie alle, nur anders.

Remember before you decide not to vote;
Telling a trans person that "both sides are bad" when only one side is campaigning on their death...is a roundabout way to tell them that you don't care about them.
