Yeahhh, unfortunately I don’t have optimism - but I was trying to see some of the positive sides of things. It is objectively good that the culture has become so tolerant of trans people, even while the political backlash is so great.

I agree though about the potential for the current administration to end the U.S., but as one of those trans people it’s a coping strategy for me not to dwell on that and to stay focused on what is right in front of me.
