And also to Commander Emily Schilling (pic from 2024, on Flickr Commons) who is suing the current administration over their transgender military ban. She went on to work for SPARTA Pride for transgender military advocacy. SPARTA Pride had their awards ceremony last weekend.

#transgender people have always been with us
and always will be with us
they are an essential thread in the fabric of human existence
forever
Reminder to everyone today:
If you are trans, visibility is not a responsibility. If you need to be stealth or closeted because you can't handle being visible, that's okay.
For those of you brave or safe enough to be visible: remind the world that we exist.
Because we do exist.
We have a right to live our lives the way we want to, regardless of what this generation's expectations of us may be. We have been around longer than this society, and will still exist after it has crumbled into dust. Which society? All of them.
We are not a fad. We are not a mental illness. We are not trying to corrupt children. We are trying to exist as ourselves.
They can try to erase us, but we are written in ink and will never fade.
Happy Trans Day of Visibility, everyone. You will be okay.
Lots of love
Government data can be wrong. You should be able to fix it.

Today is the International Day of Trans Visibility 🏳️⚧️
Transgender people have always existed and always will. At the Newsmast Foundation, we will always advocate for the trans community and work hard to ensure that the spaces we build feel welcoming to trans people.

Trans Day of Visibility
On TDOV, we celebrate the joy and resilience of transgender and non-binary people everywhere through elevating the voices and experiences of the trans and…Human Rights Campaign Foundation
Practical thoughts:
1) actively encourage trans people into your community and spaces. Be explicitly clear that they are welcome.
2) promote and enforce robust codes of conduct, and ask for this in events to which you contribute.
3) report anti-trans content to your own instance admins, and to the hosting instance admin if it makes sense to do so.
4) buy stuff (if you are in a position to do so) from trans people. Loads of trans people in the fediverse have small shops selling cool bits and pieces (drawings, books, jewellery, and more).
5) if you control the design of forms and systems, do not collect gender information unless necessary (and I don't have a good example of when this might be, but someone might)
6) push back against laws and policies which discriminate against, or make life harder for, trans people. Write to your MP, and be vocal in your support.
Today is the annual #TransDayOfVisibility.
*waves at all the lovely trans people here*. I am delighted to share this space with you.
There is still so much more than we - cis people - can and must do to make the world safer and friendlier for trans people.
Hey cis people! It’s #TransDayOfVisibility ( #TDOV ) tomorrow, which means you should read and boost #trans people, including me! Here’s my recent #TransitionTimeline, please go boost that:
