What it means

A collage contrasts SOPHIE’s statement “God is Trans.” with a Guardian headline announcing her death, followed by a dark four-line exchange: Sophie tells God that God is trans, and God replies that Sophie is dead. The joke is an irreverent, grimly absurd reaction to SOPHIE’s death and the wording of her song title and image caption.
