It's an underserved, underresourced community, abandoned even by its peers.https://twitter.com/elamin88/status/1024467331311910912 …

I learned this firsthand when a bunch of queers drove 5 hours each way to help me with something critically important last year. It showed me what queer family can really be.

Also @hootbot was the first one to teach me about this. She's a born-and-raised Virginian, and I'm just a no-good Northerner. Charlottesville fancies itself a liberal bubble, and it's not, but she taught me how to be both queer and brave.
