The trans community has always been a strong one, even in spite of those like this current administration who want to see us beaten down. But trans people have always survived - we aren’t going anywhere.

Today is a day where we call upon everyone to remember each Trans person who lost their life this year. Remember their names.

Do not work on your days off.

"But--"

Do not “answer a few emails” on your vacation

Do not work off the clock

A victim literally escaped Jeffrey Dahmer’s apartment naked with a hole drilled in his head and unable to speak but police let Dahmer take him back to his apartment like everything was ok!

And I guess he doesn’t count as a serial killer but Eric Harris had already been making threats and harrassing students to an extreme degree before Columbine- police literally had a search warrant but they just never acted on it. If they had, they would have found the guns and pipe bombs and the shooting could have been easily prevented. They even tried to cover this up afterwards.

Do you have any idea the infrastructure required to just build a bomb, let alone test it? We’re talking about thousands of workers, hundreds of acres of facilities, just for fuel production alone.

Construction of specialized plants for assembly and subcritical experimentation.

Not to mention the actual testing of a device. No military in the world will willingly use a weapon that has not been tested in the real world. Computer simulations still aren’t able to accurately render what happens inside of a nuclear weapon at the moment of detonation.

Accurately measuring the yield (explosive power) of a nuclear weapon requires detonation, and extensive instrumentation. The setup of such a test is large and distinctive enough that it can be detected via satellite and aerial photography of test sites, as happened in 1977 in South Africa. The USSR got wind of a pending test and informed the US (yes, really), who overflew the site with an SR-71, and told South Africa to knock it the fuck off.

Iran is probably the most surveiled country in the world besides North Korea. They don’t have nukes.
