HELP FOX LAKE EVACUEES

May 5th, 2023

Due to Wildfire HWF030, 3,700 residents of the remote Northern community of Fox Lake, accessible only by boat, ice road or bush plane, have been evacuated, many with less than half an hour's notice, leaving behind belongings and vehicles. The evacuees are being housed in towns and reserves nearby, and are in need of clothing, food and hygiene items. Yet another of the reserves of Little Red River Cree Nation, Garden River, is also preparing for possible evacuation. My own Father-in-law, who was part of the evacuation effort, has lost everything he owns in the fire.

PLEASE help if you are able!

Canadian residents may send funds by e-transfer to roseann@lrrcn.ab.ca (Ref #15043)

A GoFundMe has been started, and you can find it below

If you are unable to use the above methods, you may send funds to paypal.me/kida and I will forward it to the e-transfer address.

Please share far and wide, and pray for rain.

@ my fellow adults who use tumblr a lot:

can you PLEASE put your age in your about/sidebar and make sure it’s accessible on mobile. imo if you’re an adult esp 20+ it’s a little weird that you wouldn’t have your age readily available on your blog. if you’re reading this now and you don’t have your age listed, please rectify that. i feel like teenagers get lured into talking to adults in fandom/lgbt spaces that they may not have intentionally sought out because they think they’re talking to other teenagers, and this can lead to a lot of other – much more insidious –problems

Can you guys step out of the tumblr “everyone over 20 is inherently predatory and creepy towards children” bubble for once and consider that encouraging people to give up their personal information for the imagined safety of the community is like…not safe?

this advice doesn’t even make sense for multiple reasons; if someone is intent on preying upon minors, all they have to do is follow your advice and lie about their age, being over 20 doesn’t mean you can’t be preyed on yourself, you should never be coerced into giving up your privacy on social media (seriously, did a fed write this?), and promoting the idea that turning 20 means your interactions with younger people should be viewed with suspicion is absolutely harmful, like OP do you have any common sense? At all?

“ignore your own privacy boundaries and discomfort and if you don’t idk 🤔sounds a lil sus 2 me, pedophile” will you guys stop larping as conservative politicians for one second please

think-of-the-children fearmongering is not the same thing as actually protecting minors

You’re talking about - much more insidious - problems while telling people if you don’t do what I tell you, you might be a threat to the safety of our community, like okay Dubya!

Let me tell you about the insidious things that happened when I was young in fandom spaces and older fans became my friends

1. I was taught real sex ed by a midwife, including a lot of pros and cons of various birth control

2. I learned you can just get anything printed into a book and having it in a physical book don’t legitimize something

3. I learned how to enjoy other cultures without making people from those cultures uncomfortable

4. I realized my guardians, while better than my past guardians, were still abusive and what I was experiencing was not healthy, even if distressingly common

5. I learned generosity without ulterior motives actually did exist

6. I learned I don’t have to abandon the things I enjoy as I get older.

7. I was taught ways to treat people differently in deference to their age while still treating them as peers.

(they treated me as an equal, but I was not included in any sexual discussions, for example)

8. I learned that friendships don’t have to be quid pro quo

All of these things super insidious and destructive to the conservative agenda.

Destroying the links between generations is part of how the powerful keep us from forming communities and bettering our lives. Don’t do the masters’ work for them.

good adults around can help warn the kids from the bad adults
like the master and his insidious schemes

nothing like citing bible verses while justifying child abuse

ain't no hate like christian love

curiously the majority of states that allow for corporal punishment in school (read: literal child abuse) are run by Republicans

& this remains the most accurate meme i ever made

I always say that "corporal punishment" didn't make me behave, it made me resentful, angry, distrustful of authority, and fucking sneaky as hell.

In 20 years we’re going to find out that “no kink at pride” discourse was a CIA psyop to reintroduce more traditional forms of homophobia (i.e. the defense of the innocence of children, Gays as sexually predative, etc) to millennial and gen z aged influencers.

Hoooboy did this post age like fine wine. We didn’t even have the groomer panic yet when I originally wrote this.

My God, this is from 2021. It's useful to be reminded that the current high-pitched assault on rights is about three years old, if that.

Things used to be different and we can undo what's been done. We just need to Keep Resisting and Stay Loud.

Move the Overton Window back to the left so we can get the sun in the morning again!

they're being arrested for unloading placards from a delivery van. By the way

angiethewitch

according to the guardian, the protesters asked why they were being arrested, and they didn't get a response. these people were detained without official reason. that is fascism and suppression.

angiethewitch

guardian article. I am appalled and honestly scared.
