Happy Earth Day to all, including the POTUS and Traitorous Right Lunatics who are fighting and scheming so hard to help Corporate Polluters, Private Jet Owners, The Morally Corrupt, and well known Oil Companies and Coal Barons, destroy our Planet. 1/2

Of course the NYT sees the "DEI" stuff positively & is neutral on anti-trans discrimination

It was an emotional trip. There were a few planned activities and a couple of spontaneous ones that caught me off guard. I sobbed into my hands at the Stonewall National Monument thinking of how hard the LGBTQ community, my community, has fought to exist. The fight isn’t over. 1/2

Flying to New York tomorrow to see a friend. We’ll spend a couple of days upstate then travel together into the city. It’s my first time visiting NYC and I can’t imagine doing it with anyone else. She is my ride or die!

Coffee date yesterday. My talented, brilliant, sweet friend broke down in tears and begged me to reconsider when I told her I’ve decided to stay and fight, rather than flee to France and wait out the incoming administration.

That’s how scary it is for trans people in the United States right now.

I listened to @hcrichardson.bsky.social on Jon Stewart’s podcast and it was exactly what I needed to hear to give me the hope and strength to get through the next administration:

Finished this today at the coffee bar.

Walking with a friend today when I mentioned that I was thinking about moving out of the US. Part of me wants to stay and fight, while the other part thinks that even a bird knows when to fly away. She suggested I listen to my heart instead of reacting out of fear.

I've decided to stay and fight.
