I just came out. I’m so happy to be here.
Free healthcare, free surgery, and a free place to live.
Nothing can go wrong, nothing bad will happen to me.
This is transsexual life in 2043.
Everyone just loves me, everyone’s so cool.
All my friends are well and alive. We hang out by the pool.
No administration gives a fuck what I do.
Don’t gotta make social media posts about how the bathroom I use is the one your father does too.
And the air’s so clear and the planet’s warm.
No soldiers in the streets. No white phosphorus storms.
This is the world you have given to me, my trans elders who fought for me to be free.
No one gets shot in the community, we love each other in community.
No one is homeless in the community, we all have a place in the community.
No one is shunned in the community, we care for each other in community.
No one is hopeless in community, we found liberation in community.
It's about messy T4T hookups. It's about how hard we're all getting fucked by capitalism. It's about the dread of being perceived as your mask by people who are supposed to know better. And it reminds me of some of the best nights of my life. Petrycia
