rules by the ignorant

I am a trans woman that has been more or less forced to live under a rock for the last 20ish years. I've had literal rocks thrown at me for existing. I've been the victim of just about every kind of abuse that a transphobe can do in that time. I've been avoiding most of society for a long time because of this; barely eking out the life that I want for myself, even while self employed with good contracts. It's going to soon be at the point where I can't even show up in person to buy food here. I'm in a smallish town, and people know me. Someone had the audacity to try to build an extremely permanent Trump billboard on my property (complete with concrete bollards and rebar).

I guess that what I am trying to say is that while I've been through a lot, it's going to be so much worse. My name and identity are actively being erased, and it is all being forced to be legal where it was formerly not. I know that I am preaching to the choir here, but please - I implore you - do whatever you can. This weekend I am going to be protesting by laying in front of police vehicles, preventing them from moving.

It is time that we, as a whole, begin to truthfully care.

Edit: typos etc.

Big if true

Every relationship Trump has is transactional

Wouldn't be surprised if some transport companies accidentally get hit by something like this given how so many have very accidentally trans names.

The blind leading the blind is out, the blind leading everyone is in.

Finally, some good news. I'm about 20,000 dollars in debt because anytime I try to move I have to "insert card to continue transaction" and it's so annoying
