Just read a quote that goes SO hard: “The world probably won't stay dumb forever, but transphobia is ticking down quite slowly. So why watch it burn away slowly when you can torch it straight from the bottom with your own hands?” - Yakusinn Deboer quoted in Growing Up Trans Our Own Words. 🏳️‍⚧️✨

good morning, blue sky world!
