hi please support us we are trying our best to use our training to care for our community!
right now there is no one currently doing what we are trying to do in olympia + nearby areas. there are very select few abortion clinics and MANY pro-life / anti-choice protesters making it safe n sometimes scary to even walk into a clinic to receive vital information.
the fact that many people will lose their insurance is even SCARIER and makes it so much harder to acquire abortions, especially for those who are undocumented. people are still going to keep getting abortions but the access to that IS being threatened.
this is a really fucked up time and this is how i am choosing to invest my energy and organizing. im sending love and strength out to anyone else who is trying their hardest rn to keep their community work going while still trying to preserve themselves.
thank you for reading and supporting.
*DO U WANNA HELP SPONSOR BRZD??* Donation options @ bottom of this post
👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽
It’s an important goal to have BRZD be present at events that center marginalized experiences. I am hoping to table at NAH FAIR at the end of Feburary, but cannot afford it, so i am reaching out for help! LA ONDA presents NAH FAIR, they are an LA-based crew that actively works against capital and it’s outcomes; a screamingly obvious and immediately pressing outcome of capitalism in LA is harmful af rapid gentrification. It’s vital to be critical of how creatives–artists,&writers are complacent of and contribute to gentrification and displacement, and how white artists co-opt and straight up steal from black and brown artists.
So here’s a call out for ~FUNDRAISING HELP TO SPONSOR Brown Recluse Zine Distro can be able to attend NAH FAIR in LA, February 24&25th. Fund$ are to support airfare & the cost of a full table, as well as reordering from artists and printing materials.
Just like Brown Recluse, NAH Fair doesn’t do any work for profit, we do this for our communities. all $ gets funneled back into our projects. SUPPORT QTPOC REPRESENTATION ! ! !
((ALL of the distro’s sales goes directly to support artists directly and reprinting material by hand, with any left over profit being donated–so this is a specific sponsorship fundraising callout ! ))
i try to not put any emotional labor or output for free on the internet anymore, especially because of the gross fetishization of queers of color and everything from our cultural rituals to our clothes to our facial features are consumed and spat out as a poor replications for capital and giving a “like” is a lazy form of “ally” support and im perpetually eye rolling at yts anyway and no surprise but in no way are radical spaces ever actually trying to center queer and trans people of color ((((except for when we lead and create these spaces for ourselves lmao)))) - - - but here’s a hell yeah to the Journey of Self Discovery and Unlearning and loving yrself completely in all yr gender performances and body flux

This young Black man is awesome. He looks very cute and professional and I can feel his hunger for success. I definitely advise everyone here to watch more videos of Chicken Connoisseur and I hope he will achieve his goals. I just love THIS KID!
