Bad light selfie. Dressed up, having fun.

Casual day look. Minimal contorting, average bind.

Here’s a little something I did for Trans Day of Remembrance. There won’t be any update tomorrow. <3

[staff]

Today is Trans Day of Remembrance. 

The 2014 Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and HIV-affected Hate Violence Report from the National Coalition of Anti-Violence Project shows that, of the LGBTQ+ and HIV-affected murder victims, 80% were people of color, 55% were transgender women, and 50% were transgender women of color. 

Please take time today to remember those we’ve lost to anti-transgender violence. Please think about what you can do to make lives safer for our transgender siblings. Consider donating. Consider reaching out to a friend.

If you need someone to talk to, Trans Lifeline is a non-profit support line for transgender people and people struggling with gender identity. They’re available by phone in the US (877-565-8860) and Canada (877-330-6366).

GLAAD (@glaad) has a longer list of resources, including international organizations, and some that use online chat.
