May our joy be the most visible thing about us.

Dear ATJ community,

Happy Trans Day of Visibility! Our next newsletter issue comes out mid-April, but I just wanted to share a few words about uplifting trans joy on TDoV.

Right now, too much of trans visibility is either the wrong kind (dictated by those who want us to be quiet and afraid), or focused on the legal and survival needs of our community. While there is much to fight against, I also know that for trans futures to be possible, we need to center beauty and laughter and nervous system regulation. And our joy, too, is resistance.

So, let's do this thing together!

🌟If you are trans and want to make your joy more visible, please consider submitting to our upcoming issue by 4/13! You can learn more about how to do so here (there's even a new fancy encrypted form to make things easier).

🌟If you're an ally (or are keeping your trans joy private for now), please share our newsletter with your circles to uplift trans positivity and healing! There are so many who could use our message to keep their spirits up, and you never know who might click on a link you share.

🌟You can also now support us financially at buymeacoffee.com/transjoy! Donations go towards platform fees, tipping regular contributors, and (hopefully soon, as we grow!) trans mutual aid.

Last but not least, thank you so much for subscribing to Amplifying Trans Joy. Your support helps keep all this going.

In solidarity,

Jin (he/him)
