If I die in some news-making fashion, I do not want any of my blood relatives involved. Don’t ask them for quotes, they don’t know me. None of them have talked to me in over a decade. Anything they have to say will be wrong.

I think, every so often, about how the student protesters in South Korea figured out there was a finite supply of tear gas, and then staged retreating marches that caused police to burn off most of it, before the big "bring your auntie and kids" marches that ultimately toppled the dictatorship.

Check out The Flytrap's own @nicolefroio.bsky.social in @conversationalist.org, writing about a UBI program for artists in Ireland! Funding the arts is good, actually.
Painting a More Hopeful Future
Why Ireland’s Basic Income for the Arts program is just the first step in better supporting the country’s artists.

I can’t fix the world, but I can try to make my corner of it a little bit brighter. Yesterday I spent awhile working on tiny trans and rainbow colored ice cream charms for @romancingthevote.com that I will probably turn into keychains or earrings or something.

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK
I’m eating lunch, I’m having a panic attack, I’m charging my phone, and then I’m going back out to try and keep my neighborhood safe.

So just found out that Audible have silently removed six audiobooks from my library. Because I noticed, and complained, they gave six credits to buy them back again. They did this because the publishers updated the books and Audible just deleted the old versions.

There is a difference between maintaining an awareness of the bad stuff and tormenting yourself by watching people dying. The former is an important part of civic responsibility. The latter is not. Don't watch it if you don't want to. /End

1. Good news for trans people in Vermont.

A bill was just filed that would fund private trans youth care clinics across the state.

It would be a major shield from Trump funding threats which have caused hospitals to shut their doors.

But it has to pass first.

Vermont Bill Would Create State Trust Fund For Private Trans Youth Care Clinics As Trump Threatens Hospital Funding
The bill would establish the Affirming Health Care Trust Fund, administered by the State Treasurer, to support clinics and providers outside the reach of federal funding threats.

Organizers in Twin Cities making rare plea for folks to share broadly:
ICE ops have changed & escalated this week. They've moved to a 'flood-the-zone' strategy, nabbing anyone they can from bus stops, the sidewalk, cars, or homes. This means indiscriminate abductions and obviously no warrants.

Second this! Also a bunch of us with crafty skills are gearing up for the next round of @romancingthevote.com which is a great way to DO SOMETHING if you’re feeling helpless.

If you’re lacking resources, I know a discord full of folks who have craft hoards to destash, lol.
I cannot emphasize enough the importance of finding one constructive real world offline thing you can do to use your particular skills in service of fighting fascism as a psychological defense against the constant drumbeat of fuckery
my hot take is that I don't think it's this website specifically that's toxic. the Circumstances are toxic and nobody really knows what to do about it so they come online and scream. and if I may offer an alternative: actually going outside and screaming feels better.

If you're using AI to generate fanfiction you're a loser. We write fanfiction for the love of the game, the characters, the need to fix a horrible ending. You use the wrong punctuation not because you're stupid machine, but because you graduated high school over a decade ago and forgot grammar.

Sites are picking and choosing what legal adult content is "ok" and paypros are largely behind it.

We really need fans to pick up the calls to stripe, visa and Mastercard asap. This stuff is only getting worse and we must fight back in any way possible.
