.... oh that's *nice*. *takes deep breaths*

The other afternoon I saw a dragon in the sky at sunset, but only had my phone with me to catch it.

Meanwhile Ted Cruz, of all people, is calling on Illinois Republicans to vote Democrat in November, because the Republican candidate is a literal Nazi: twitter.com/tedcruz/status/101 :birdsite:

a siren went down the road and a bunch of coyotes went off in response! yay we have coyotes again! :D I've missed them...

I think the squeaky mouse toy I'm using to play with the kitten is alarming some birds outside--they're twittering in exactly the same key and rate as the mouse. XD

Does anyone know any organizations that directly materially aid sex workers in Seattle? The main one I found seems to be awareness-boosting-only.

The Ones Who Retweet Vehement Condemnations of Omelas

CWs are super great to encourage political action because:

- you can mention where it's happening, so you don't have to read it if you can't do anything about it, (or forward it on in case others might be able to act on it)

- you can say 'hey, here's something that you can do about it' and people can think 'oh wow, that's great, I'll take a look at this when I'm up for it'

(ie. giving context and action statements prevents apathy and makes political action messages focused instead of chaotic)

Once I have the medical assessment need met, I will have my disability confirmed, which gives me a solid monthly income to springboard other efforts off of.

...and Lincoln Financial Group owes me large sums of money once I can prove my disability, too.

PDX, counter-protest 

Apparently the alt-right man-baby squad The Proud Boys are rallying in Portland this Saturday (30th July) and there's gonna be some counter-protest. I don't have any reliable links to give however.

They're even more violence-prone than normal though, so be careful and be sure you wanna get involved.

financial need, immediate, please signal boost 

I need $3,500 to pay for justice.
I need $1,700 to pay for a medical assessment.
I need $20,000 to pay for the medical "care" I was forced into against my consent.

I need to pay for food and medications.
