Yep, I just need to accept the reality where I have zero rights and can’t get a job because I’m a tranny.
Can you just stop?
You got to sleep on a mattress last night. I am so sick of hearing this shit from people who haven’t fucking been raped.
Oh, okay, now you're just assuming things about what I have or haven't been through? That's extremely arrogant of you. I don't know you and I don't know what all you've been through, so I do my best to not make any assumptions, I'd appreciate it if you'd extend the same courtesy back.
Regardless of what happens to any one person, they have control over their reaction to it. You keep comparing your life to others, but what good is that? You got dealt a shit hand while others do evil and thrive, it happens every day. Hell, story of my life, too. The difference is what you do about it. You know what I do about it? I do my best to help others never have to go through the same bullshit. Whether or not I fail is not up to me, but whether or not I try is.
What I find interesting is that you started this post and are free to disengage whenever you want, yet you haven't. Why is that?
