I’ve seen a sentiment shared online, in response to the events of the last few days, that right now is an excellent time to loudly and vehemently express support for marginalized communities.

I 100% support the rights of LGBTQ+ folks, the BIPOC community, women, and any and all other communities who are reduced down to letter soup. Every human being out there deserves to love whoever and however they want and it’s none of our goddamn business. Everyone deserves to be who they are without fear for their wellbeing.

It’s incredibly horrific what the current president did on day one of the presidency with the 35+ executive orders he signed. With the swipe of his pen he ordered a suppression of human rights at the federal level and this is certainly just the beginning.

It shouldn’t be necessary to have to state these incredibly basic things, but sadly it is. Speak the fuck up and encourage others to do the same. I love you all and support you.
