Marvel's Hero Project

Marvel has released their first comic featuring a transgender hero, Rebekah, as a part of their Hero project featuring everyday people making a real difference.

Not a long post, but this is a story to make me happy to see. First, that a company like Marvel is doing this is wonderful, they have huge influence and can make for a very positive voice. Second, Rebekah is just delightful, a beautiful young lady with an engaging style. See her interview here:


She's a brave young lady, making a real difference. Here's another video:

Finding Light in the Dark

Without a doubt, the times are dark right now. In a world that has gone mad with hate and bigotry, that is looking to devolve to a darker time in history, the question becomes: how do we cope?

I identify as... Stop! It's what I am.

The expression "identifies as" gets used a lot when talking about trans and non-binary people. It's also used by a lot of bigots to denigrate the trans experience. It's an expression that I would like to see fade away.

It's very hard

It's a lot to take in, you know? I don't even live in the United States, but I know what happens there soon happens here.
