I know you’re all feeling the darkness here today. But there’s no reason to give in…in my heart, I know we cannot be defeated, because there is an answer that will open the door.

There is a way around this system.

This is a test of our patience and commitment.

People tell you who they are, but we ignore it because we want them to be who we want them to be.

Here is a beautifully reported article on Nex Benedict, by trans reporter Jo Yurcaba. It centers the voices of queer and trans teens, does so safely, and actually breaks news, including the fact that Nex was a boy who used "he/him," and some friends suspect suicide. www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-...

People will show you who they are, but we ignore it because we want them to be who we want them to be.
Even with all the changes, whenever I come here, it just feels like sitting around waiting for the world to end. Grousing with a bunch of people who have all agreed to be irrelevant together. What's the point, I'd rather do that with my real friends. Practically anyone who matters is there, still

I’m glad that this is an environment where you feel free to fail.
