Decriminalization means nothing if it erases the most criminalized. Sex workers, trans people, immigrants & people with HIV must lead. Liberation demands inclusion & laws rooted in care, not punishment. Watch Decriminalization Without Erasure

Reminder...

Collective care means honesty, patience, and trust.

Change takes time, show up with heart, keep your commitments and your boundaries.

It’s okay to say, “I can’t today.” That’s not failure, it’s care in action.

Release the Epstein files! We stand with survivors demanding truth. When power hides abuse, sex workers are blamed & criminalized. The systems that protect predators punish us for surviving. Accountability isn’t optional. It’s liberation.

Sex workers have always led community care. 33% of grantee investments go to mutual aid; food, housing, safety. If you’re against fascism, you stand with sex workers. There is no liberation without us.

Grassroots & sex worker–led orgs aren’t “too risky," they’re underfunded & undervalued. Bigger, unrestricted grants strengthen impact, not risk. Funders: it’s time to invest beyond the check. static1.squarespace.com/static/5cd5d...

US age-verification requirements are now going far beyond "porn."

Two of the most recent states to enact legislation require face scans or other verification measures for *any* site with *any* amount of "material harmful to minors" — including Amazon, Reddit, Discord, Twitter and Netflix.
Wyoming and South Dakota Age Verification Laws Could Include Huge Parts of the Internet
By omitting the "one-third" provision that most other states with age verification laws have adopted, Wyoming and South Dakota are placing the burden of verifying users' ages on all sorts of websites,...
