A T. rex, draped in the colors of the trans pride flag, roars in a Jurassic Park movie ending pose. A banner falls in front of her, and it reads "Trans Rights or I Bites".

This is the first bit of trans art I ever made.

I am hardly anybody, but I promise to use whatever strength and privilege I have to make this world a better place for trans people, and one where we can live our lives without fear of simply existing.

I wish you all a joyous #TDoV.
