It is critical to keep reminding everyone that a better world is possible. Not magically easy, but possible, and worth it.

It disgusts me that some people completely reduce trans people in such demoralizing ways. My time with my trans friends can be so gentle, quiet, and beautiful. Our love between us and other communities is everything. I want a world where it isn’t completely twisted and misunderstood.

Creating IS frustrating, it's amazing, makes you want to cross out every sketch or word, then stare at it in awe for hours. Be bad at things. You'll get better and find community. A written work or art piece with its author's experiences, emotions and meaning behind it is powerful and engaging.

by the way, you're not doing nothing. Slow creative days happen. Rough days happen. Believe me, I get it. But staring at your WIP, visualizing, adding a note for later, hell even just italicizing a single word. that shit counts. it's something. you're making an effort. that's never nothing.

Love your friends. Unashamedly love your friends. Go for little walks. Do lunch. Go for coffee. Make spontaneous plans. Head to the pub. Phone them for five hours straight. Text them the things that make you think of them. Humans are full of so much love, share it with as many people as you can.
