So here’s the deal. I’m being made redundant from my day job, which I don’t mention often here because I don’t like crossing the streams of music me and day job me all that much. I’ve got a little runway but if you’ve got projects coming up soon it would be an ideal time to talk.

As ever for trans people when there's alarming news: remember that transphobes want you afraid and hopeless. Seek out expert analysis, rather than the worst possible consequences. Disengage when you can, and read more only when you're in a good position to do so. Protect yourself and your comrades.
