Fuck It and Fuck You, We Will Live and We Will Be Happy

I've been hesitant to post super personal stuff ever since this asshole in geminispace named "stack" (among other names, these types love to change things up to hide) shat on my disability and my fears about it's origin. But fuck it, he's a useful idiot for the fascists, attempting to silence the voices of the oppressed while thinking he's doing good. He won't silence me, and he won't win.

I've been so scared of the future, a future he seems content in bringing about. A future where Trump wins and the Republicans take their state level transphobia and apply it federally. A future where the Republicans seek to eradicate queer people.

I was reminded today, that they royally fucked up when the succeeded in repealing _Roe v. Wade_. It is the deepest most unpopular thing they have ever achieved. They are resoundly losing so many elections because cis women, even right wing cis women, have woken up to the fact that republicans want them obedient, mindless, and even dead. **Republicans hate women**, and huge swaths of women are waking up to that fact. Further, their anti-trans policies are so deeply unpopular that they keep losing elections on those issues too.

Their platform of hatred and control is finally starting to backfire, and Americans are finally starting to band together. The only caveat is that Biden is intent on genociding Palestinians (Biden providing American weapons to Israel for the express purpose of killing Palestinians is indeed Biden killing them, just shut the fuck up if you wish to express your profound wrongness about that). So that's still a big "oh god, the democrat vote turnout is gonna be so low," but he has time to reverse course. He many never be forgiven, but he can at least show people he can change. He can stop killing innocent people.

And further beyond that, Republicans, whose end game is a genocide of queer people, are very content right now with making our lives miserable so that we kill ourselves. Fuck that. Being trans is the best thing of my life and has unlocked levels of happiness, joy, and love that I never knew possible.

My wife and I are so deeply in love. She may not believe in soul mates, but I am starting to again. And it needs to be said loud and clear: This love only exists because we are both trans. Because we are our true selves and we show it to the world, each other, and ourselves every single day. Love this powerful moves mountains. Love this powerful changes the world forever. Love this powerful heals. We are unstoppable. We are trans.
