I was just reminded that in the World of Darkness, the combustion temperature of a vampire is canonically 451 degrees Fahrenheit and that will never not be amusing and apt.

Also two things are true:

It is deeply unfair that so many people who aren't white men lost their jobs and aren't getting them back and that is shameful for the country and us.

And also: they just got humiliated and it is okay to be glad because next time more people will believe we can best them.

Thanks to everyone who came and helped out at our Mutual Aid Sew Along in conjunction with the @saclgbtcenter.bsky.social We finished more than 80 cooling scarves, and have dozens more that will be very easy to finish.

Friends & community!

We are sure you have heard - its the Big Day of Giving.

We are always working hard behind the scenes, even when you dont hear from us for a while. Part of that behind the scenes work is building community partnerships.

My friend needs help staying housed.
Hey everyone! so as I've mentioned, if I don't manage to secure housing by the end of February, I'll be homeless. I have a line on a great studio, and I'm trying to make sure I can not only get in there but have it set up for leeway. Pls donate if you can, and share around! gofund.me/23bbaba3

Spent the day doing a bonus mutual aid street meal. 75 people got a hot meal, water; socks and Narcan.
We take care of us.

Just remember, it is ok to be happy. It is ok to walk on bright sunny days and eat an ice cream and look out at the ocean. We cannot bear the weight of the world if we have no inner strength supporting us. Allow yourself the right to live.

Storytellers never die.
Precisely this.
Until the last second.
Until my very last fucking breath on this earth.

“And I’m not the only one, one of many, unafraid to open eyes or heart or mind.
We ride rootless on heavy medicine,
and we do it all the time.”
If & when all the disasters come to pass, at the last bonfire where the last remaining humans gather, there will be rhythm.

There will be songs and dancing. There will be fashion. There will be ornamentation and storytelling and reenactments and roleplay and drawing in the dirt. We'll never stop.

From the archives - thinking of SoCal folks - there’s another sigil that was created in Los Angeles for combatting fires as well - I’ll post it when I find it: www.patheos.com/blogs/tempes...

It’s been a rough week.
I found out Wednesday that I’d lost another friend. I never met Gavin in person, he lived in Australia, but we connected online about 12 years ago, and chatted everyday for years, about food, books, and mostly about arguing on the internet with strangers.

One of my best friends died early this morning. Rich Ostorero was a gamer, a writer, a witch, a historian, a Navy veteran, a father, and a friend.
I loved him, and I will miss his big heart, and I’m also glad he’s not still standing at the gates.
Hail the traveler.
What is remembered lives.

it’s rare to see larger encampments these days (because of how relentless the sweeps are now) but I just drove past a community of 12-15 tents AND they had decorated so cute, red, green & gold garland on every tent w/little balloon clusters 🥲

So the internet says it is #GivingTuesday, and all sorts of organizations and causes have their hats out looking for funds.

Dandelion Seeds is entirely funded by grassroots community contributions from individuals and other small local organizations.
