i spent Saturday afternoon canvassing and petitioning for trans rights and there is a hunger for direction from people to whom we spoke. My small group got more sign ups than rejections and the next day our campaign was told that we got 500 people to send letters.

Nenookaasi Coalition's press release about the encampment fires on January 6, 2025. Thank you to everyone who has been showing up to support! Visit nenookaasi.com to view the full press release with contact info and links to additional sources.

What it was like to be at @supplydepotmpls.bsky.social yesterday, managing fire response: Cars pulling into the parking lot constantly, with neighbors bringing food, warm coats, hats, and gloves. (Short 🧵)

Additional pro-tip: Unlike with N95s for infection control, you cannot re-use them in rotation or over several days. You wanna throw them away when they get dirty, which will happen fast (same dayish) with smoke and particulates. Plus, they’ll stink. Guarantee it.

I talked with my friends @prisonculture.bsky.social, @deanspade.bsky.social, @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social, and @shaneburley.bsky.social about activism and organizing in 2025 and how we should move into the next phase of struggle.

This is also a good time of year for coloring books and supplies, people are trying to stay in their tents as much as possible to avoid freezing

2 minutes from opening the doors to distro, ALL of this will go out the door and into the hands of someone who needs it TODAY

Fuck it. Trans folks need MATERIAL SUPPORT. @distributeaid.org is launching an HRT Harm Reduction Toolkit that provides 1 year of medical supplies needed to take injection-based HRT. We were planning to go live in January, but I'm not waiting. Fund the kits here: distributeaid.org/hrt-harm-red...

If you have warm clothes (especially shoes!), hand warmers, or anything else that might be useful for 50+ people the Red Cross gave 5 tents, total, to after the fire, drop off spots are below:

While the "holiday" this was written for has come and gone, there's lots of solid stuff here for the whole "holiday season"/all year round:

If you're going to gather with family or friends this week, please chip in to this fund to make sure local Native families have abundant access to food: givebutter.com/FOODSUPPORT

I’m running a coat drive for Supply Depot and GMCC!!! We are hoping to distribute 350 coats, primarily to unhoused residents and new arrivals/refugees. You can drop off coats at Arbeiter Brewing or Duck Duck Coffee, or DM me to arrange another option!
