This is where we are: Families of trans youth are fleeing political persecution in the US with no sign that anything will stop the GOP's reign of terror.

This is how we got here: A drip, drip, drip of confusing and misleading news stories showed us how little it takes to destabalize the situation for an already vulnerable minority group.

Calling a spade a spade feels like all I can do some days. #transgender #journalism

@gnomic_heresy Some days are harder than others is the honest answer. Doing my best.

@e_urq The work you're doing is valuable and necessary. And I hope you're getting care and support.

I'm working with some discord servers of volunteers who are helping to get trans people moved from state to state, or get them info and resources they need if they're hunkering down. It feels good, and is helpful for my state of mind, to be working with other people. I feel less helpless.

@gnomic_heresy Yeah, I almost added in my original response that it feels much better to be doing something than nothing.
