If it had gone unchecked, the building would have collapse and thousands of people would have died. No one remembers the building collapse that didn't happen though. Like the woman at the start, the people who care about prevention don't get recognized the same way as when people respond to problems

Rebekkah @rebekkaaah.bsky.social · May 19

I was explaining this frustration to my mom one day, who told me a story of a woman in a documentary who caught a major architectural flaw in an office builiding. No one even believed her at first. Eventually the problem was corrected.

Rebekkah @rebekkaaah.bsky.social · May 19

Wearing a mask breaks so many chains of transmission, and prevents so much disability and death that we don't see. Instead of recognition, many of us get pushback, ranging from dirty looks to getting sent on involuntary grippy sock vacations for "covid anxiety."

Rebekkah @rebekkaaah.bsky.social · May 19

I think covid-concious folx think about this a lot. No one will ever say that they can run today because of the person wearing a mask on the bus. Covid-cautious advocates will never get recognized for the absences that didn't happen at work or school.

time sensitive MA need!

my very good friend Erika is under pressure from her landlord after a few months of trouble with timely rent.

she only needs $395 to catch up, otherwise landlords are threatening eviction.

pay links in pic and reply, additionally seeking twin cities tenants rights info! 🫶🖤

Erika Today at 18:43:

Hey, I'm Erika, a transbian who lives in Minneapolis. I work in IT, and I make decent money, but l've been a paycheck behind since I moved into my apartment, so l've struggled to pay rent the whole time.

I currently owe $395.00, and I just got a text from my landlord saying that I have to pay rent by EOD tomorrow or they would give me an eviction notice.

I can accept Google Pay (contact Sinead for details), Venmo (@redriotgrrrl), CashApp ($deathmasque), or PayPal (paypal.me/ erikawhelan).
Any info on tenant unions or other tenants rights groups in the Twin Cities would also be welcome.

New print just dropped! Because we love fucking around and finding out 😎 Riso print in blue and gold. I'm hoping these are the first in a series of prints featuring this 3D model I made.
Oh yeah, and let me know if you want a copy!
