Still scrolling down looking for the basic Transgender Solidarity post but I guess allies are sleeping in....

Trans dance party starts here. I am starting the dance party.

Then we can take a break and write our reps and remind our friends and go back to our daily revolutionary work of staying alive and experiencing joy three steps ahead of the murderbigots.

    They weren't sleeping in, they were just sleeping. You posted this six hours ago. Six hours ago it was 7am on the east coast and 4am on the west coast.

    Bedtime is figurative when the audience is global.

    Your self-defense math is technically correct, but I don't see how it helps the cause.

    Are you trying to reassure us that you're working hard and also taking your union breaks? I would like that.

    No, I'm calling you out for saying that people are "sleeping in" when they're sleeping in the middle of the night, as I plainly said. This is a post about the US, so mostly Americans are going to read it, and it's the support of Americans that we need. You were passive aggressive and wrong. Deal with it.

    I'm so glad you think your perceptio of your personal slice of night is worth bringing this vibe, compared to what I asked for. Just bc you don't understand the rhetoric immediately, doesn't mean it was set out to harm anyone.

    Thanks for putting ur ego up where the disco ball goes.

    Oops. Forgot no one works third shift. Forgot this transgender person doesn't count as an american anymore.

    Guess I don't exist. Oops.

    Guess I'll become silent and stop irritating you while you look for something else to make about you and drag down.

    Would that make you happier? Maybe republicans will send you a spraypainted piece of potmetal for making everybody's day better.

    You don't get to play the trans card with me, asshole. I've got one too. Your expectations are unreasonable, and there's plenty to be worried about without setting your own hair on fire.

    Slinging insults while nailing yourself to the cross makes you sound like a child. Grow up and get some perspective.
