Elliot Page has announced that he is transgender ❤

A picture of elliot page in a hat reading "Stop Alton Gas", next to a few paragraphs of text too small & blurry to read

A series of Tweets with usernames covered up, each replying to the last.

Um... is this an error? They put up a picture of Ellen Page. Typo maybe?

Not a typo, he's Elliot Page

I'm not sure I understand. Please explain?

I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're well intentioned lol. His name used to be Ellen Page but he has come out as a trans gender man, so now his name is Elliot Page. They're the same person

OH! Oh okay - I'm new to this. I didn't understand what was happening. Thank you for explaining. I thought it was some new meme that I missed out on.

In that case, I'm going to join everyone else and say that I am very happy for Elliot Page. I've always been a huge fan of his.

I thought Umbrella Academy would be the obvious comparison due to the fact Elliot plays him

Oh yeah it definitely is. I just didn't recall how the coming out scene happened in UA, whereas the Discovery coming out scene really stuck in my brain.
