Re-upping this. Trying to raise $150. $85 is urgently needed to pay off our monthly storage unit by Friday to avoid losing most of our belongings. The rest for groceries. Please boost/give if you are able. We appreciate it! PP: nivcharayahel V: heathmarie31 #MutualAid #HelpFolksLive2025 💕💸
Hoping to raise $150 to pay for our storage unit and buy some groceries/OTC med supplies. We're slowly catching up to where we won't need to ask anymore, but not quite there yet. Please boost/help if you can. V: heathmarie31 PP: nivcharayahel. Thank you! #MutualAid #HelpSky #HelpFolksLive2025
Thanks to the kind person who sent us $150, our need has been met! We appreciate everyone who helped us with this. #MutualAid #HelpFolksLive2025 💕💸

Evening Update: Still stalled at needing $1390 by Christmas Day in order to pay December's rent and avoid another eviction. Winter is not a great time to be facing the possibility of being homeless again, especially where I live. #MutualAidRequest

Steve isn’t here anymore, but he always posted this picture on Hanukkah so I thought we could carry on his tradition and remember him.
Happy Hanukkah to our friends who celebrate. Rachel Posner, a rabbi’s wife in Kiel, Germany, took this photograph in 1931 -- a potent reminder that fascism must be fought in every generation, even if it's wrapped in an American flag and a red hat.

It’s the first night of Hanukkah and the world seems like a very dark place. But we can bring light to the darkness. We can fight for each other and make goodness, love, and community shine through.
Show me your menorahs and let’s light up the timeline!

Hello friends, I recently lost my health insurance + benefits & am currently looking at a bill of over $16,000 for which I cannot pay. This would not necessarily be an issue if I were not visually impaired and currently out of full time work, but I am humbly asking for assistance now. Any bit helps.

one 2025 book i really admire, and haven’t discussed enough, is @kwistent.bsky.social ‘s critical history of modern American orphanhood, THE SUN WON’T COME OUT TOMORROW. This book limns the ideologies of “child rescue” that shaped the development of US foster care and adoption. it pulls no punches.

There is always something to be done, and that something makes a difference.
That is what optimism is: choosing to believe that you can continue to make a difference, and doing so, as much as you can.

You can be optimistic about climate the way that you are optimistic about a hurricane: by knowing what coming, by having a plan, by helping those most vulnerable.

I've also heard (anecdotally) that there's been an increase in middle-aged men who are otherwise healthy/fit having major heart attacks because they are taking T without first checking to see if they actually have low T. It's fucking ridiculous.
Never stops annoying me that we get endless handwringing about how unsafe and untested lething trans people have hormones or puberty blockers while there's a fucking billion dollar industry hocking testosterone supplements and steroid injections to insecure teenage boys without anybody giving a shit
