Does anyone have knowledge of an instance that is focused on Minnesota? I have a friend who's mounting an outsider Senate run in MN, and I'd like to find her an instance that has a strong MN presence to help move her campaign. She's a member of DSA, trans woman, with a history in public service. DMs are fine as responses, as well as open answers.

PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION!

If you are a Canadian citizen or resident, please sign this petition to the federal government.

It requests that gender affirming care be guaranteed for trans youth. This petition can save lives. Please sign it.

https://www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Petition/Sign/e-7005

Spread it as much as you can on your social media. Let's get this baby flying. I want them to get even more signatures than I did for my trans asylum petition three years ago. Please make sure you tell people that all residents of Canada are eligible to sign, but you must have a Canadian address to sign. If you are unhoused, ask somewhere local to you for an address you can use to sign it.

You will have to give an email address to it, which you must use to confirm you signed, or your signature will be invalid.

-=-=-

Boosts not only invited, but crucial to the success of this very, very important social action. I'd love to see a million people sign it. You have my explicit permission to screenshot this post and spread it anywhere you want, on any social media platform you think will have Canadian residents to spread it to.

-=-=-

The most that a petition before has gotten has been about 300,000. I want us to blow right past that, and roll that one up for tokes.

Canadians! Please join your trans neighbours in helping provide relief to trans youth. Speaking as a former trans youth, this would have changed my life completely. We can still do that for our neighbours' children.

Please help make it happen.

We've all heard the tale of how to own a Nazi bar, i'm fairly sure. I was drumming up interest in a local board game group i really enjoy, on my local queer Discord server. I got some interest. Someone on the board games group's server asked "why did you make a point about us being queer friendly?" Not rudely, just curious. "Because a lot of community groups are invisibly closed to us. We daren't reveal ourselves because of antipathy to queer folk. This place doesn't do that, at all. So i tell people it's safe, and they feel more comfy coming along." Someone said, "Oh, so it's like the Nazi bar story, only good." I thought for a moment, and they're right. Sort of. Because unlike Nazis, queer folk aren't an invasive species. We don't push people out. Assholes just self-select choosing not to be associated with a bar that's queer-friendly. Which is fine, system working as designed. So...how do we tell the tale of the Queer-friendly bar, and the positive feedback loop that can occur when a business is explicitly friendly to queer folk? Cause I think that could be a simple, true, and effective point about the great difference between choosing to be nice to Nazis instead of queer folk. Or vice versa, being nice to queers and bum-rushing the Nazis. The Nazi Bar story is one we all know. Anyone got a proposal for how to do a good tale of how the bar got so lively? "Oh, I bought a drink for this gay fella once, and soon there were loads. But they're great guys, and if ya tell them no, they stop bugging ya, which is giving me weird feelings about how I treat women. And we get a lot fewer assholes, too." Someone? Got a seed for the good story lurking here? I wanna make us some rippin' good properganda.

One of the things I often say when I help someone is, "pay it forward when you can." And I want to just open that tin up a little, and have a peek inside, because I think it's more sneaky good than people think it is. So, for those who haven't encountered it before, the idea is that if I help you, but there's nothing I need from you in return, then you feel a debt. Pay it forward says "Your debt is to our shared community." And it means you can pay off that debt whenever you have the means, *even if the original favour came from someone no longer around.* In this way, this behaviour sneaks in community building in a long-term way. Because while I'm only one elder among a few here, doing my best to be a help to as many as need me, the odds that any of these people I'm helping will be in a position to help with something I need is rather slim. For one thing, the odds are good that my remaining best-before time is about 30 years. In the scheme of things, when many of my friends are in their 20s and 30s, this means I may well be gone when they are in a place to help the way I have. And I won't need the help anyway. But if they all remember to pay it forward...then they in turn create a generation that owes them a debt of gratitude. Which makes them want to give back. And slowly, a community grows, that supports one another the way they were supported earlier. So when I say that, I'm not just tossing a slogan at you without thought. I'm telling you my piece of how we make a community for our people. Take that piece, and use it when you build something for our community. And so on. Y'all are my people. Just as I am your people. And if we work together, we can only get stronger as a group, a bouquet of identities, and as a community.
