so, so sad to hear that @TGStoneButch Corey Alexander died this past weekend. their work has been a huge inspiration, the visibility of kinky, sadistic, trans, & autistic folks was huge. they’ve been a colleague for a long time & a huge influence.

Oh no! Corey and I were close when Corey lived in NYC. I loved their deep sincerity, their brave vulnerability and their wisdom. We used to talk for hours on our way to and from Ramblewood. I am so sad. And so sorry for your immense loss.

everybody should make a will.
especially in coronavirus times.
regardless of if you’re estranged from your family or not.
make an end of life plan.

As @MrSexsmith said, everybody should make a will, especially now. End-of-life planning is important.
For my fellow trans ppl, that planning can be very difficult. This link is an amazing resource from @TheGoodDeath on death planning for trans people.https://t.co/eoiBzJbPtw
