T J Miller Allegedly Went On A Transphobic Tirade Against Someone He Once Called His Hero

T.J. Miller, who trained as a comic in Chicago, is being accused of sending a transphobic email to current Chicagoan Danielle Soltzman, who runs the movie review site Solzy at the Movies. In early August, she wrote Miller to politely point out the distasteful term “Tranny Dumpster Sex” embedded in his website’s metadata. Then she found herself at the receiving end of a missive from the self-proclaimed absurdist.

After receiving the email, “That day, if not the next day, [Miller] shared one of my older photos on Facebook saying, ‘This person’s my hero,’” Solzman says.
