Risks, Fears, the Public and Its Jeers - #DwhellOnIt Ep. 63

"Society sucks! That's how it goes. Society sucks. It's not a party. It's not a great time. You don't get high-fives from everybody as soon as they discover you're #trans. You get rejected. You get isolated. You get abused. You get violated. You get fetishized. You get objectified. You get stalked and harassed. You get isolated; I might have mentioned that already. You might get ostracized; I might have mentioned THAT already! It's not a good time. It's not a good time.”

Budgeting, Travelling, Singing and Stereotyping - #DwhellOnIt Ep. 62

"In my thirties, I was still expecting an unkind and unaccepting world, with rejection, isolation, ostracization, and so on. But, the violence. The violence! The flagrant hate! The divisiveness of our society! And the ability for #people to feel like they can impose hate and aggression on people they disagree with without consequence is something that I would never have imagined existing as much as it does today."

"That's the same thing as what's happening when it comes to genocide, #trans genocide, erasure, trans erasure, let alone any other type of fascism that's happening right now down south, across the pond, and in our back yards! It's happening, and I can't be quiet about that! This stuff isn't #coffee talk! We can't just pretend this isn't happening!"
