So, there’s a lot going on. Pam #Bondi has been thrown on the sacrificial pyre, so that’s fun. Tel Aviv was pounded by #Iran, and the US media isn’t reporting it. The president of these united states has lost any semblance of rationality, and an abandoned Victorian doll haunted by the souls of unrepentant nazis (Stephen miller) is our shadow president.

But I want to talk about Byron #Noem. And here’s why. I’m deeply uncomfortable with how “our” side is dealing with this. This was our chance to shine. We should have been out here saying that as kinks go, cross dressing is pretty fucking vanilla.

We should have used this as a chance for pushing acceptance. Yes, Kristi Noem is a monster who signed anti LGBTQ laws as a governor, and who had the audacity to lecture us while she was mile-high clubbing on tax dollars.

But we have the opportunity here to be the moral actors. If you are an ally, don’t let the right use this to further demonize #LGBTQA, or kinks for that matter.

Brutal.

Oh hey, it's #TransDayOfVisiblity -- shouting out all my lovely trans friends and sending quiet love to the folks who can't live as themselves because of the shitty policies of governments like my own

Trans rights are human rights. Period.

For Transgender Day of Visibility, here’s a throwback photo of me from circa 2006, when Apple featured Mac developers in an online ad campaign for WWDC.

Yes, we were around even then. There’s a pretty good chance if you played Mac games in the 90’s, one was written by me or @burgerbecky

Happy Trans Day of Visibility! 🏳️‍⚧️ The mere act of existing and being visible shouldn’t be as fraught as it is today. Let’s keep fighting to set things right.
