re: how can we help? 

@sol @rey

This is a great question and I'm searching for better answers than this: informedimmigrant.com/guides/h

I think at this point it's safe to say hiding migrant families from ICE is absolutely a worthwhile endeavor for those willing and able to face the potential legal consequences.

resources link, ICE raids 

Re, LB: nilc.org/get-involved/communit is a good resource to read if you expect to be confronted by ICE for any reason.

@salameleon@snouts.online Stellar run. Best of luck on sub-2!

capitalist hellscape, some help requested 

I'm poor and also my roommate's only ride during the day (we both are self employed) so it's a real blow to have my engine completely fucked by hyrdolocking. Mechanic asking just under 3k to fix it.

Will be taking commissions and such on stream, but every little bit helps <3

the quiet year (+) 

Bought a fresh copy of The Quiet Year. Discovered the author transitioned since first publishing, and has since been writing follow-up games based on near-future queer romance. 💜

Trans PoC asking for help, Boosts OK 

Hey, so I figured out that I don't need to feel bad about using the internet for its intended purpose: the sharing of information.

So, here's my asks to Trans PoC Masto:

1: How much did it cost you for facial hair removal, and what sort of procedure worked for you? Laser, electro, chemical, or do you just shave constantly?

2: What're your wig recommendations? This is new territory for me and I need more intel.

3: Does anyone have a good resource on reversing or treating going bald? Wigs are a pain in the ass, and not the most comfortable yet for me.

4. Can you share some starter makeup tutorials?

It’s dry enough out that, while watering the backyard, a hummingbird flew down to chase droplets in the air for a drink.

I now feel blessed by the tiny birb. 💜

Promoting an Indie Game: Skate Bird! 🏂🐦 

Hay frens!! A friend of mine is making a really awesome game and just launched the Kickstarter for it! If you like birds and enjoyed Tony Hawk style skateboard games, this one's totally up your alley. ❤️

@isatis@vulpine.club I am heavily biased by the golden age of IRC, which was exactly this. I used Bitlbee with IRSSI for quite awhile to federate back to the “mainstream” chat applications of the era, which later grew to include Jabber, AIM, ICQ, MSN, and later even a Skype and Twitter interface.

A modern equivalent sounds quite nice, honestly.

@kelseyhusky @mawr @Aradia Please enjoy this template that absolutely should not be used for this purpose:

Update: that was a very scary number. 😶

My celebration for paying off the thing was Subway, because somehow, I hadn’t yet had lunch.

pol, cult ideologies primer, birdsite link 

Useful thread on cult ideologies. While its examples are from uspol, this is an accessible read on how cults work, how they structure their dependencies, and how to recognize their recruitment practices:

(This now fits into an entire genre of writings and videos on the subject, but this one is quite good.)

[1/3] Seattle Area PSA: Trans Pride Safety Bulletin (cw: white nationalists) 

There's a Trump rally scheduled at the same time as Seattle Trans Pride, likely intending to disrupt the event.
Here's the info I've found:

• They're likely meeting at 4th and Columbia downtown & will march from there

• The hosting group has connections with known white nationalist movements

• The Gender Justice League is aware of this and is requesting donations for additional private security for Seattle Trans Pride

[2/3] Seattle Area PSA: Trans Pride Safety Bulletin (cw: white nationalists) 

WHAT CAN WE DO?

• DO attend the event with friends and stick together!

• DO NOT engage the fascists (while they're in a group).

• DO NOT call the police to ask for their help. The SPD is NOT an ally of the transgender community and is not welcome at Trans Pride. Instead, the Gender Justice League has asked for donations to cover the costs of additional private security.

* DO donate here:
