This was the tail end of a yawn I couldn't stifle right after I hit the picture button.
Oh, well!
Goodness, if there was ever proof that I am not totally awesome-looking 100% of the time, today and yesterday’s pics would be it. XD Not to say I look hideous or anything, but they’re not gonna make it to my top ten favorite pics of me, for sure. Further proof, if anyone needed it, that I do not get all floofed out for my pictures. It is very much a “oh, yeah, I should take a picture, eh well I don’t look TOO much like a disaster victim” kind of attitude, some days.
In more serious news, today was the International Transgender Day of Remembrance. That, for anyone who wasn’t aware, is a day to remember all the many transgender people who lost their lives by violence at the hands of another. It is a day to think of those who have been silenced, and make others aware of how much further we have to go. To remind people who don’t have to struggle every single day with things like identity, or the body they were born into, that others exist and need help. I am privileged to feel comfortable with the body I was born in. Many others do not, and they suffer for it. So remember, how many people are lost every year, due to the fact that they are different. Remember, and strive to learn and understand about those who are different from you.
The Princess – A very cute webcomic about a little trans girl’s life.
Khaos Komix – A webcomic about various issues of sexuality and gender identity, the current story is about a trans girl, and the one right before that was about a trans boy.
