This legit made me cry. Thank you for taking the time to respond and clarify. I understand. I apologize for reacting on impulse.

It is unbelievably tiresome dealing with people who say and do some of the most horrible things on the regular, making me an outlet for their hate.

Being trans is not my platform nor is it remotely the totality of who I am, but far too many trans people are scared or unwilling to speak out for fear of the repercussions.

Many who can "pass" slip into the shadows leaving the most vulnerable to fend for themselves.

I don't judge them for that, but that's not my lot, that's not how I roll.

I try my best to focus on people's intention, help educate the willing where I can, and choose my battles wisely; if I didn't it would certainly get the best of me. Unfortunately this is the exact effect some people are after.

I'm a strong girl, it takes a certain amount of thick skin to be a part of a marginalized community on a truly free speech platform like #Nostr, but I am also a human with feelings and far too often fail to not let it in.

I have so much respect for you as a dev, and now as a person. You're a good egg, Mike. I hope this experience can serve to make our friendship stronger. I would really like that :)
