Let's have our #transcrowdfund #MutualAidRequest for the #Vulpibus really take off please.

We need to raise $2000 for immediate bills and needs. So far we are on about $90.

The plan is to make a home, #lab, #hackerspace and #rescue vehicle all in one.

Then there is a Nissan Leaf as runabout.

Every #donation makes a difference.
I have seen their progress.

Obligatory reminder that Beyond the Plus will be at Cal Anderson park this sunday (in 3 days!) from 11AM - 3PM! This is a great opportunity for people who are on the fence about signing up to ask us questions about the org. It's also a good opportunity for current members to stop by and say hi, and for anyone interested in our org to grab some free pride buttons. You might have seen the pics, we're going all out with the buttons this time!

Hope to see you there! We look forward to seeing people come by, whether familiar faces, or curious strangers.

When people talk about patriarchy, they usually describe how it harms women. But my life as a #queer man in the Balochistan province of #Pakistan has taught me that #patriarchy also suffocates men, especially those of us who dare to dream differently.

Ready to level up your play? Learn the sexiest skill of all: asking for what you really want.

I'm teaching Consent & Negotiations 101 at Pride in Gloucestershire this Saturday 13th Sept.

I'll be at the Weredog K&F Stage teaching a 45-minute workshop packed with consent, safety, and negotiation tips - helping you and your partners connect, play safer, and have more fun.

Today I heard about the concept of "queer time" for the first time. It's basically this: some queer people may not live their authentic selves in their childhood and teenage years, some common live events may be delayed or not happen at all (jobs, relationships, marriage, children ...) and there may be other differences in the lives of queer folks, especially compared to their cis het peers.

Trying to put on at least a bit of makeup every day, got a lot of catching up to do to make it feel 'normal'.

Doing mascara every day, a bit of lipstick and/or lip gloss if I'm not going to eat anything for a while. Eye shadow sometimes. I still feel like a beginner, but it's all skills; I just need the practice.
