I'm glad you're able to notice ways to help people affected by Recent Events feel less alone and access more information about people like them and what they can do (at least, that's how I expect it'll impact people). And to keep yourselves afloat. Mad respect. Hell, I'm thinking of wearing some kind of trans pin on my bag because while part of me recoils from "visibility is a political act" type statements (for poorly-introspected reasons; idk if I'm being fair), and I have never felt comfortable wearing pride symbols, I often get a hit of pleasurable surprise at seeing other trans people out and about. If I can brighten someone's day and/or find connection, that'll be nice. And also, yeah, I'm not going away any time soon.
