Pretty much everyone has a trans person in their life, whether or not they realize it-- a friend, your favorite cashier at the grocery store, or your local cofounder/guy who does the art and graphics on your game server host's site.
That'd be me. πππβ¨ Hey there, I'm your guy, if you think you might not have one.
Today is a day for awareness, whether it be awareness of problems our community faces and charities that can help, or just awareness that we are here. We're part of your every day community, slogging through our laundry and sitting in traffic right alongside you, even if we're not always visible. So, hello from your resident trans fella. We're here, always have been, and we all have so much more in common than we don't.
To celebrate this year, I wanted to give a spotlight to the community here at Nodecraft, and highlight a few events featuring trans creators, events, and charity work. π
π The Last Seahorse: Trans Lifeline Raid Train
Our partner The Last Seahorse is helping to run the Trans Lifeline Trans Week of Visibility raid train, which will close at the end of day on 3/31. The final push begins at 11pm PST, so get don't miss out!
Visit the event to track of the raid train, check out the schedule, and find who is currently streaming!
π TheBlackCladWanderer: Charity Stream benefitting The Trevor Project!
Our partner TheBlackCladWanderer is hosting a charity stream, and is using one of our servers to boot! Proceeds from the stream will benefit The Trevor Project, the leading suicide prevention and crisis intervention organization for LGBTQ+ young people.

π NestInTheNorthwest: Trans & Gender Nonconforming Community Celebration Build
Our partner and ally NestInTheNorthwest is working with their gender diverse community on a build project-- The community is coming up with a design to celebrate transgender, gender diverse and non-binary people, and Nest will be doing the build!
Check out their stream to join in the celebration!
π¨ Me: Trans Visibility Art Freebie Day
And then there's me! I'm doing a freebie art day for trans visibility, and will be giving out little dorky doodles over on Bluesky. I'll be drawing freebie doodles most of the day, or until I get tired of doing it, so uh... get in there if you want a shot!
Ping me with a pic (within the rules) on this post, and I'll draw it badly!
