i very rarely talk about my life story these days, because even among trans/autistic folk i have had a particularly bleak one

lovely to know that the two biggest social platforms now have it in writing that, if i ever decide to, calling me a r****** tr**** about it in the name of Jebus is fair play

as someone who was fairly extensively abused for being autistic as a kid, then was disowned by both adoptive + birth family & spent years in and out of homelessness for being queer

there is a violent emptiness in having to live in a world that will never let you forget how much they and their god hate you
