On #TransDayofRemembrance, we gather to mourn the #Trans, non-binary and 2-Spirit folks we have lost and celebrate those who are here with us. I will never stop pushing for a future when everyone is free to be their truest self. #ONpoli #TorCen #TDOR #TDOR2024

Wisst ihr was das Schlimmste am #transdayofremembrance ist?

Das ich mich schuldig fühle.
Schuldig, dass ich überlebt habe und andere gestorben sind.
Schuldig, dass ich es nicht verhindern konnte, dass meine trans Geschwister gestorben sind.
Ich fühle mich schuldig, weil ich denke ich muss mehr machen um irgendwas zu ändern.

I've been to a demonstration of the Trans Day of Remembrance in Berlin. It was really sad to hear so many names being read out loud.

I couldn't help thinking that next time it could be me or someone I love whose name gets read.

Everyone there was sad. People were hugging and hoping for a better future. At least I could see that I'm not alone. We are a community.

#TDoR2024 is now trending across Mastodon

For Trans Day of Remembrance today I want to highlight trans authors, please feel free to reply to this with your recommendations and I'll boost them.

I'll start with my recommendation:

and my review of it from 2022 when I read it:

“As well as a time to remember those lost to violence, and to raise awareness of hate, Trans Awareness Week is also about honouring those who fought so hard for the community and for their right to exist.”

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR).

Every year on November 20, we remember the people we lost to transphobia.

On #TDoR2024, Trans Day Of Remembrance, I would like to remember the unseen victims in countries without an effective press.

The TDoR statistics might have you believe some countries are more dangerous than others, because a high number of reports come from them. They may well not be very safe, but the figures represent media coverage and are thus heavily influenced by press freedom.

So remember please the unknown victims, in countries where their deaths are never reported.

「 Our Spark Shall Stay Alight 」

It was two degrees when we got home last night

By contrast this is what I was wearing yesterday (and Monday )

Airport and flight was pretty gross as per usual but I did get a laugh out of the woman on security

Had a couple of amazing cookies and some empanadas at a cafe before we left, while my wife finished off some work

Somehow I only managed 3 empanadas, and half a serve of patatas bravas on the whole trip

Had some good potato/onion tortilla tho, and I love the tostada ceveza sin alcohol (50cents a can )

I’d say I’m ready to hibernate until march but alas I have maintenance to do

Will hopefully get to the TDOR memorial this afternoon if my energy levels are ok

Today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance.

This is what we know about the #trans folks we have lost since 1st October 2023:

Heute, am 20. November, findet seit 25 Jahren weltweit der Transgender Day of Remembrance (TDoR) statt – ein Tag des Gedenkens an trans* Menschen, die durch Hass und Gewalt ihr Leben verloren haben. Der TDoR ist nicht nur ein Tag des Innehaltens, sondern auch ein Aufruf zu Solidarität und Einsatz gegen Diskriminierung.

Ab dem heutigen Tag ist eine Online-Ausstellung verfügbar, für die eine Arbeitsgruope ehrenamtlicher tin*-Forscher*innen eine Liste von über 20 während des Nationalsozialismus verfolgten tin* Personen erstellt haben:
