I know it's hard and it's scary right now but please remember it's nearly impossible to make people change their minds. The hateful and the bigots will be louder, but please remember that's all it is—noise. For every normal person in the world, nothing has changed. Remember you're still loved.

Next week will be kicking off with a lot (including the return of TCUV and REDACTED) and this week I get to play in a one shot that combines two of my favorite things: The Phantom of the Opera and professional wrestling.🤘

So fun times. My insurance has ended coverage for my inpatient physical therapy, and I'm now having to scramble for accessible housing while my body is still recovering. I'm pretty allergic to asking for help, but my savings are pretty much gone after the last like six months of medical issues.

Brand Manager getting ready for Pride Month
8 panel comic

Panel 1: Yellow guy is working on a laptop in the background. In the foreground is a Brand Manager.
Yellow Guy: “Sir, shall I put up our rainbow profile picture?”

Panel 2: Brand Manger snaps his head round and hisses “Cool your jets, Eugene. I’m checking the Profitometer”

Panel 3: Gonna do my best to explain this. We see The Profitometer. A huge machine that whirs and ticks. A digital display at the top of the machine reads “Supporting Pride equals”Beneath this display is a huge gauge with “Max Loss” on the left and “Max profit” on the right. There is a needle that is pointing exactly half way between the two extremes.

Panel 4: Close up on Brand Manager’s face. His teeth are gritted. Sweat trickles down his brow.

Panel 5: Close up on gauge. The needle remains exactly central

Panel 6: Close up on Brand Manager’s eyes. They are concentrating intensely. Also, more sweat.

Panel 7: Close up on the gauge. The needle clicks ONE DEGREE towards profit

Panel 8: Brand Manager screams like a football coach “GO GAY EUGENE”

You matter.
To everyone,

We're going to keep this short because nothing ever changed because some content creators released a statement, however—we are blessed with a community made up of all types of amazing, kind people whose very existence is being threatened every single day that has passed since the beginning of January, and even coming up on five years since the inception of LFTA we still refuse to shut up about the same shit we've had to say over and over again, because it still needs to be said. There's a soapbox section on our Twitch channel and in our Discord, where we acknowledge that charity is the Band-Aid that allows capitalism to get away with murder, that in a perfect world we wouldn't need nonprofits or aid organizations or GoFundMe campaigns for surgeries and legal fees and rent. But as we have been continually reminded, this world is not that one. Not yet.So allow us to state a few simple facts. You and all of your truths exist, simultaneously and uncompromisingly. They will continue to try to tell you they don't, because that's what weak people do in the face of conflict: they cover their ears and close their eyes and hope that it will all go away. But we have all been doing this long enough to know that doesn't work: that just because they won't see us or won't acknowledge us or will try to make us all disappear, they will always *always* ***always*** fail. And we will move on without them; we will find joy and love and celebrate one another and they will die alone and miserable and irrelevant. No matter what comes next, no matter who they try to punish and no matter how ugly they become, please never forget that you are everything good in this world. Every single day you become more the person you want to be as you learn and grow and change and we are all better off for you being here. They will try to exhaust us, to show us so many horrors and seeming defeats that we give up and go to sleep. They want our fear, we will not give it to them. They want our rage, we will use it to change the things we can. They want our surrender, but every moment of our existence is fighting back. If you are trans, queer, a person of color, if they tell you that you crossed an imaginary border and that makes you illegal, if they tell you that your brain is wrong, if they tell you that your body is wrong, if they tell you that who you love is wrong, remember that they are lying to you. Here, we promise, at the very least you are exactly, perfectly right. 

We'll keep working. When we're tired, we'll rest. And when it all feels like too much, we hope that we can make you laugh and feel joy and maybe even cry the good tears for a change, while shining a light on the small things we can all do to help. We aren't important, not in the grand scheme of things, but we are made of important parts. All of you. 

With love and rage,
Live From The Apocalypse
