Please help. People's needs always increase this time of year but this year is even greater than usual, and when we run out of tents people are sleeping unsheltered. Finances are tight for everyone but how far are any of us from homelessness?

Weeknight drop-ins have tripled we are tired and out of money. Please donate via the links in our bio so we can continue to support unhoused people.

We cannot keep up with the demand caused by current situations in both Minneapolis and St. Paul, we need financial support.

$18K would allow us to give out additional $0.10 weekly (tent tarp sleeping bag hygiene kit undies) per week through February.

I think cis people do not understand that when we say “this will harm trans people” it’s because we are in communities that is constantly doing collective suicide watch for each other, and most of us know multiple people that did not make it. if we say “this will harm kids” we mean “kids will die”

I was expressing frustration to a neighbor last night, about the long-term nature of some of the projects I’m organizing. She reminded me of the simplicity of handing a warm meal to someone that’s hungry. Community Kitchen has been quietly doing this for years. They always need money & helpers.

no it's not a fucking secret trans girl essence. many trans girls as children are incredibly obviously trans. the people abusing them may not know that's what's going on they may not have a word for it but they can see something is going on.

I think an example that came up a few years ago and comes up every so often ever since is that thing where a lot of trans women say that someone tried to drown them as children. I feel like that's pretty distinct.

This is what has happened with Labour in the UK. Most people don't believe that Labour could be transphobic - they aren't the Tories or Reform after all - and refuse to see it, and they are the most transphobic government of my life. So much harder to fight against, so much more damage done.

Cis people do not understand how much trans people's rights have regressed in just 5 years. 5 years ago, there were none of these restrictions. 19 states banned legal recognition 21 states have bathroom bans 8 states ban gender marker changes on DLs 25 ban gender affirming care for trans youth

There’s such an easy answer to this “gotcha” question and it’s “Sports are inherently unsafe and unfair and it’s ridiculous to single out trans athletes when we allow 150 pound linebackers to go up against 260 pound linemen in freshman football on a daily basis. Let kids play with their friends.”

the city of minneapolis had to pay the star tribune $31,500 to settle public records lawsuits already this year... what a waste of taxpayer dollars and they're apparently risking even more by continuing to refuse to hand over data www.startribune.com/minneapolis-...

Every Saturday! Some folks saddle up on their bikes, tote a wagon & do harm-reduction distribution in Whittier, Wedge, Uptown, & Phillips. A lot of what they have is sourced from South Side Harm Reduction, but a lot also comes out of their own pocket. Any help is rad & goes right into inventory.
