Most of us don’t suck. I keep hearing this rhetoric that because I live here, because I was born ans raised here, that I am a fool or complicit.
I am trans, hispanic, and atheist and I can’t leave for many reasons, but amongst those reasons are because
this. Is. My. Home.
I love my city, my culture, my Home. I will fight in the face of the worst of us because I know we can be better here.
Do not damn us all, we’re fighting

I’ve frequently felt that there are good people in Texas. You all fought well. Keep them in check. Here in my state of KY, I sadly have to keep fighting. From the depths of my soul, thank you for fighting.

I’ve got family in Texarkana (both sides of the border!) that definitely did not help and I had kind of sworn off the state altogether but I can reconsider now.

Good job!! Me and my uterus abandoned Texas years ago, and every time my daughters ask me when we can move to Texas to be with the rest of our family I tell them never. Maybe that can change now.
