Tranasgender Day of Rremembrance - 2014

It's the 20th today (here in Australia) and this is the TRANSGENDER DAY OF REMEMBRANCE, when we remember those persons who died because of transphobia.

The Official website for this at http://tdor.info/ doesn't recognize deaths from suicide or domestic violence, but I DO. Transphobia shows its presence not just in violent attacks by strangers, but by instilling a sense of shame and and guilt in people about themselves and others. And the victims of that can be trans persons, and their friends and loved ones.

So let us remember the fallen, and while we mourn their passing, rejoice in the fact of their lives, and their efforts to be who they were.

Believe it of not, I've been swamped with studies, and today I shall take the opportunity to finish and post my contribution to the Transgender Day of Remembrance Webcomics Project! Then there's a trip to the university and more food shopping. Doesn't look like much but believe me, it'll be a busy day.
