Every year, around this time of year, I remember what was done to Isabel Fall. I remember how the people who did it to her justified their acts, then apologized and cried over the harm they'd done, then went on with their lives and careers.

And I get furious and sad all over.

#IRememberIsabelFall

I wouldn't have chosen a Monday night for remembering and reliving sorrows, hurts, angers, and fears, but we only rarely get to pick the cards we're dealt.

All of you trans folks out there: you're beautiful, and I'm so happy you're here.

I'll say it again, extra loud for the transfeminine folks out there: you're beautiful, and I'm so happy you're here.

Yes, person out there saying "not me," even you. Even you.

We have to be for us, because if not, who else will be?
