today we honor all of our fallen trans comrades

those killed, either directly or indirectly, due to the machinations of a cruel and unjust world and societies that largely would prefer if we simply ceased existing

but, more than that, we resolve to keep fighting. trans people everywhere are staring down the barrel of unbelievable genocidal terror right now. with imminent fascism knocking at our doors, there's nothing more punk rock than saying "NO, FUCK YOU, I REFUSE TO JUST LAY DOWN AND DIE"

it takes a lot of strength to accept yourself as trans, let alone everything else that comes after. but you don't have to do it alone. remember, our strength is in community. it always has been. that's how we will weather the coming storm

some parting words:

your heart is a muscle
the size of your fist
keep on loving
keep on fighting
and hold on and hold on
hold on for your life

TDOR boosts appreciated!!! :boostRequest:

oh, yeah, and while i'm at it, allies with the means should definitely check the #TransCrowdFund and #MutualAid hashtags to help out trans people who're struggling!

this is a tangible way in which you can reduce the number of trans people we have to mourn. we are a demographic that is especially known for being consistently poor as fuck

it's often said that as trans people we basically have three options for survival: tech work, sex work, or crowdfunding

normally cybersaturday is a group watch wherein we experience an episode or two of the delightfully terrible CSI: Cyber every week on saturday followed by a jackbox afterparty usually. but we're gonna watch Hackers (1995) this time instead

here's the server where it'll happen at 4:20 pm pacific time https://discord.gg/Ce9GsH2BhT
