Mori: Okay, so, when we came of age, queerwise, there was this idea that trans people and gay people were two very different groups of people. Sure, maybe in those ignorant old days, the two were conflated, but that was wrong and now we are enlightened and know these are two totally different things (and also maybe we should not trust each other or affiliate with each other because trannies will make the gays look bad and cisgays are all privileged dipshits or whatever). This blog shows that history; "queerness" and "trans" are totally different tags because when we started using them, they were TREATED as completely different things.

But as we've been reading our older queer books, we're realizing that this plain isn't true! Gay people were gendering ALL OVER THE PLACE, and homogenizing them into "cis gay" ranges from misleading to outright insulting.

We are still fucking sick, so we're sticking with posting notes from the stuff we've read. Even we can't mess that up too bad!

Mori: me, Rogan, and Sneak are still sick and contagious, but we are gonna mask up and drag our plague-ridden carcass out to vote because fuck the dickwigglers. Let’s see how exhausted that distance makes us!

We have also been sick long enough now that we are getting strategic about our nose blows and are converting our third bandanna into a work of Jackson Pollock art. If I converted the pattern into monochrome and did it over in nice ink, who would know?

Mori: So. Nobody's getting food stamps next month. And I needed to take a day to just... scream into my pillow and rant about the nature of evil, but it's cool! I'm better now! And I'm doing something about it! Maybe I could do something... FOR YOU!

See, we've discovered that we are a really good courier when it comes to getting stuff into free boxes! We've also discovered that we are good at helping people clean out their kitchens (and other rooms, but right now, food is the important thing). We've helped people do this and can give references!

So: is your kitchen full of herbs, spices, teas, drinks, or food that you are never going to get to? (Teas and herbs/spices are SO useful to people, and so often forgotten!) Does looking into your cabinets stress you out? We can help with that! We can help clean out your kitchen, disappear the bad stuff into the compost, and transport the good stuff to local free pantries so that hungry people can eat it! You get cupboard space, your neighbors get fed, I get to prove to myself the government can't break my spirit, and everyone wins!

This is an open offer for the general Boston area, but because we are a pedestrian and stuff like canned goods are heavy, we are most useful in the Arlington, Cambridge, Medford, and Somerville areas. We will be limited in how much we can carry, but we have two VERY sturdy 20 liter backpacks, a tote bag, and a heart filled with determination and spite.

Help us feed our neighbors! Spread the word to anyone around who might find this useful!

(I don't require pay for this. It is free, because I am MAD.)

This was the winner of the fan poll for this month! Images behind cut.
