I know many who read PHB don't know her, or of her, or what she's done.

Or why her passing, today, jst a few hours ago, is something for me to write about.

But tonight I am sitting here, teary eyed, upset, that we here in Phoenix have lost her.

Trans folks don't get large writeups and glossy obituaries, you see. In our deaths, we are are all too often mistreated, from the moment the flesh is empty , by society once again, and we have to go to extra efforts that are frequently denied us even after all the effort to preserve our sense of self after the self has left.
