@NicoleAMaines Thank you for all your strength and showing your vulnerabilities. You are an inspiration. I see you and recognize your struggles. Our experiences in transition have been different and all our experiences are important. Thank you.
@jk_rowling Oh, and sexual identity is different from gender identity. Simply put sexual identity is who I want to go to bed with. While gender identity is who I want to go to bed as.
@jk_rowling Your life has been shaped by your own experience as a cisgender heterosexual white woman. My life is shaped by my experience as a transgender lesbian white woman. My experience does not overshadow yours nor does it threaten the validity of your existence.
@jk_rowling My replies do not detract from any of your own experiences. Trans women do not threaten the existence of cisgender women. Those who chose to identify as women are all women.
@jk_rowling As a woman I fear getting attacked walking to my car and being raped. I also fear that if my rapist ever found out I was transgender then I would be murdered. As a lesbian I fear holding my wife's hand as we walk down the street. Forget about kissing.
#BreonnaTaylor. Donβt forget her.
Shot EIGHT times while she was asleep in her bed on March 13 when the police broke into the wrong home.
Itβs now JUNE, and the officers involved STILL havenβt been fired or charged.
We demand #JusticeforBre. #SayHerName
Horrifying. You start with the tiny possibility that two officers may be walking over to deescalate the abusive one.
Instead, they join in beating a man trying to get out of traffic.
This isnβt a problem of bad apples or incidents. This is an institutional and systemic crisis.

@OfficialNMJ everything in life changes. I loved your innocence, cosplay, and talent for design. You were an inspiration. Unfortunately, due to your new artistic form, I am no longer your fanbase anymore. I wish you all the best in your new endeavor. Thanks for the early years.
