The future is mutual aid. ✨ 💪

Trying to build community at the intersections of art and justice movements, sometimes organizing mutual aid fundraisers and distributing zines. 🕎 for a free 🇵🇸.

What I made today for the community fridge/pantry: trail mix!

The version without M&Ms is non-dairy, as my favorite chocolate chips from Trader Joe's happen to be dairy-free.
A bunch of plastic baggies full of trail mix with labels that say the date and ingredients Two metal bowls of trail mix. One has peanuts, raisins, and chocolate chips. The other has all of those ingredients plus M&Ms.

Burrito bowls made! Will label them and deliver them to the community fridge later this afternoon/evening. 🌯❤️

I also bagged up some shredded Mexican cheese to go with each container.

Cooked a black foods-themed dinner with two friends, and gave some of the extra to a community fridge! It was all delicious. 🖤

Just tried a little and it was SO good! Here's a close-up sexy pic, lol:

OnlyBus: like OnlyFans, except it's pictures of naked buses.
A bus lane in a road, painted red with the words "only bus" in white. It's meant to be read from the bottom up, so it would be read as "bus only"

"So what am I doing about it today?"

This what I ask myself too.

Over the past few days, I've donated both to a food bank and directly to people who are losing SNAP.

I also picked up a bunch of groceries, including frozen meals, for a local community fridge.
