Hi all! Life is crazy, this planet is weird and we are all unhinged little gremlins stuck here trying to make sense of it all (at least most of us are- I’m assuming everyone who is a part of this blog is, let’s be real).
As part of this gremlin’s attempt to spread information on how to help each other and genuinely build community, I wanted to start putting out a weekly blog post listing out ways we can help. PLEASE feel free to text me, email me, passenger pigeon me, or Grindr DM me any information that you’re aware of. Topics include:
- Mutual Aid Requests- signal boosting these in any way possible (as well as donating money, obvs) is an easy way to bypass traditional “charitable” organizations that eat a ton in administrative overhead. I may also include traditional donation opportunities if it’s with an organization that isn’t questionable (i.e. does sketchy shit).
- Volunteering Opportunities- If donating money isn’t an option, donating time is just as valuable.
- Organizing Opportunities- This includes any information about protests, strikes, rallies, marches, etc. I may communicate via other channels depending on the circumstances.
- Political Awareness and Activism- If there are upcoming policies which may either harm or help, I’ll post them here. This includes information about campaigns to help spread awareness, including door knocking, phone banks, mailing campaigns, etc. This also includes information on how to connect with your elected officials to voice concerns or support
Again- I am baby, and creating this blog is brand new to me. Please don’t hesitate to share any feedback with me on effective methods to share this information, or if any of the organizations/campaigns I mention here are in fact, questionable.
