You can help someone be seen. It's about visibility & getting eyes on them so it reaches someone who can help. You think I repost because I have money? Nope. I gave my small donations none exceeding $25 to who I could help this pay cycle. And I advocated for those who watch my account to help more.
💯I know some folks are a bit reticent because they don't have the spare money to spend. But that effort of helping someone be seen is beyond price.
I know of one instance when one of my shares led to a $300 donation for someone who had felt so invisible. The gratitude was humbling.

When I talk about crowdsourcing bigotry, this is what I mean. The OU case is an anti-trans campaign, full-stop. Confected outrage generated by a well-funded group of elites (far-right GOP) applying pressure to other elites (university admin).
For my newsletter, I wrote about that college essay scandal that's gone viral and what everyone is seeming to miss:
It's about ATTACKING TRANS PEOPLE!!!

That Viral Essay Scandal is (SURPRISE!) Actually About Trans People
A shoddy Oklahoma University essay went viral. Cis people think this is about conservatives whining for better grades. Trans people see a planned attack on a trans academic.

Today is World AIDS Day.
AIDS has killed 44 million people globally.
Over the years, we've learned that silence and stigma are huge contributors.
Yet, the State Department sent an email to employees stating “The US Government will not be commemorating World AIDS Day this year.”

Chatted with a couple of Indigenous elders on the streets of Winnipeg tonight that expect to be displaced tomorrow. Without exaggeration, this is ongoing colonial violence happening in cities across Canada.
And in freezing temperatures, it's among the most overt forms of social murder.
