*Jeff Foxworthy voice* You might be neurodivergent if you spend almost a decade of your life drawing and naming little guys, putting them in tournament brackets, maintaining spreadsheets with the voting totals, and displaying all of the characters in a binder when you table at events

If you have trans people in your life (me, for instance) please take 5 minutes out of your day to do this. The federal government is trying to make trans people use their sex at birth in their passports. What a bunch of turds! This one small thing can help. transequality.org/news/freedom...
