Wow. I took an #uber and the app outed and deadnamed me to the driver, who proceeded to microaggress the hell out of me for the last third of the trip.
I still gave him a five star rating and a tip so he wouldn’t burn my Uber account. But now I want to burn my Uber account.

also New York: refused to pass criminal record relief for trafficking survivors & a repeal of the criminalization of #WalkingWhileTrans because of “criminal justice fatigue”

While the NY Senate has fatigue
• #WalkingWhileTrans arrests climb
• Prisoners continue to be tortured in solitary confinement
• victims of trafficking keep entering the carceral system & get deported
fatigue must be real tough but NYers are dying. https://twitter.com/rachelsilby/status/1141825067468427264

Transgender and gender non-conforming (TGNC) communities across NY State have long been harassed and profiled due to the #WalkingWhileTrans ban, an archaic anti-loitering Penal Law.

"Loitering for purposes of prostitution” allows police to profile & arrest trans people & femmes of color for “wearing a skirt” “waving at a car” -- just EXISTING in public https://www.vanityfair.com/culture/2017/08/nypd-prostitution-laws #WalkingWhileTrans cc: @CarlHeastie@twitter.com @AndreaSCousins@twitter.com @SenGianaris@twitter.com @CPeoplesStokes@twitter.com

The NYPD will now have a stricter standard for loitering for the purposes of prostitution arrests, part of a settlement for a years-long @LegalAidNYC@twitter.com lawsuit. It’s a shift, but not enough. We need to pass the NYS bill to end arrests for #WalkingWhileTrans now https://twitter.com/legalaidnyc/status/1136413053166202881
