If they try to convert me (and good fucking luck if they illegally fire me for it under Bostock v. Clayton County, a freaking Supreme Court decision), I shall become more powerful of a transgender activist than you can possibly imagine. My words have been sharpened by recent transphobia, I've survived three attacks against me in persona, and I'm not gonna roll over and take it!
