With how copyright discussions are going regarding ownership, I half expect companies to start using the term “digital trespass” to have their cake and eat it regarding the “you don’t own stuff but piracy is still theft” argument they’re trying to make.

Tag and the biggest trans positive account you follow and ask them to repost this to spread the word among the community. There will be many people panicking about being forced out of work, social engagements and general life this evening. I'm sorry that this is the best we can do. Truly.

A letter from esse house to a community member, to whom we have provided an accessible toilet key. 

"This program was designed to remove barriers by ensuring everyone can safely use facilities with dignity and confidence without compromising their identity, wherever they are. Carry a key with you everywhere - it opens up a network of accessible toilets, giving you peace of mind wherever you go."

The key is attached to the letter.
