Opened our beautiful at last night. Was such a bloody great evening I again didn't take a single photo! So stealing from those around me, and the vibrancy, class and depth of this pic (clearly not of my πŸ“Έskill) - matches that of Bennies performance, our teams awesomeness, the venues generosity and my overall adoration of everyone involved. Happy Opening Peeps! βœˆοΈπŸ˜πŸ™πŸΌπŸ’ž

Yesterday was Transgender Day of Visibility, a holiday devoted to celebrating the collective accomplishments of transgender and gender non-conforming people around the world. began in 2009, because people realized there weren't any LGBTQ-dedicated days that celebrate the successes of transgender people, so they made their own!

This year's theme is trans resistance, focusing on mobilizing transgender people in the increasing anti-trans political climate worldwide.

You'll see people tweeting using the hashtags and to share their stories about why we need to see trans people now more than ever.
