Dad didn’t visit me in the hospital or call. I almost died and nothing.

He’s not even my real dad, I’m a rape baby. I met my real dad and he doesn’t want me either.

My ex husband got to kick me out my home. It was probably illegal, but no one cared because he had money.

I’ve had multiple jobs fire me after finding out I was trans - despite loving the work I did. Despite me being good at what I do.

you're not disposable. their behaviour isn't because of who you are, but the kind of person that they each are. ❤️‍🩹

you've been through so much and you're still here, showing up every day. you're brave and you're determined, and the world needs more people like you!

i wish you didn't have to fight through so much in your life, though; you deserve a life filled with love and people who not only accept you for who you are, but who are actively drawn to you because of your you-ness!

for what it's worth, your internet dad's proud of you and is rooting for you 💚
