I'm so tired of trying to be silenced [View all]

Last edited Fri Jan 27, 2023, 01:34 PM - Edit history (1)

So much anti trans legislation coming out this year. No way I'm throwing in the towel. But jesus with us being less than 1% Of the population. You wonder if anyone is gonna have our backs? Or allow us to be tossed to the wolves and properly taken to camps or other places to dispose of us.

Maybe I'm just sad and thinking the worst for our community. But lately its stressing me out badly. I have to leave my home every day with a gun strapped to my hip because I always feel today is the last time I will see my momma or my dog. This isn't how I wanted to feel. I believed after coming out I'd be happier. I'm not I'm far from it. I can't be me because 30% of our population wants me dead and what's stopping one unhinged person to just shoot me dead?

More and more I'd rather find a home job and just never leave my home. Just remain inside and get all my stuff delivered and only leave to see my doctor.

Edit
Sad it feels like nobody even cares...
