I’m doing two personal fundraisers and this is the other one. If you can help, please do.
My family is still fundraising to keep a roof over our heads. So many have already helped us so much. Saving us in November, then again this month. We're moving towards stability, but still need help. Thank you for those who have and those who will donate.

I was on the board of Fenway and I warned the then CEO in 2023 that this would happen. This was cowardly capitulation sacrificing trans youth.
1. In a major capitulation to Trump, Fenway Health, a center ostensibly dedicated to LGBTQ+ healthcare, has ended its trans care program under 19.
It could have fought for its patients. It chose instead to roll over.
Community members are devastated.

The workers stayed on the roof and agents drove away in a Border Patrol SUV on four flat tires, which had been slashed

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.”
Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment.
No questions asked.
No proof required.

It reveals that vaccinations didn’t JUST protect against illness.

a problem i have with attending protests:
what's the follow up?
if there's follow up to the protest with actions and plans, great.
if you go home and do sweet FA afterwards, using it as an excuse to say you "did something good" that day, find literally anything else to do with your time.

1. My newest Anti-Trans Legal Risk Map is here.
Risk has increased sharply for youth in many states as clinics shutter under Trump and state AGs refuse to enforce civil rights laws.
For adults, some increases in risk.
Nationwide risk remains extreme.
