i feel like there should be a warning that using a class conscious framework to understand depression just might make you more depressed

are people talking about the labor conditions at Taylor Farms yet? like the fact they use enslaved prisoners in their facilities?

are we drawing the connection between worker safety and consumer safety & public health yet?

are people demanding to see the conditions in this place that keeps making us sick? why are the enslaved workers not having the time to use the bathroom or to rest when ill? very few people would shit in front of their coworkers given any choice at all.

the way health orgs keep repeating "wash your produce" in response to a parasite that's only killed by heat... they want us to die for real

Transgender woman faces two felony charges after drawing a firearm during an altercation.

A Wyoming transgender woman is facing two felony charges after drawing a firearm during an altercation she says began with anti-LGBTQ+ and a

Ríhanna Kelver, a bartender and trans rights advocate in Laramie, has been charged with aggravated assault and possession of a deadly weapon with unlawful intent after a 13 September 2025 confrontation outside the Crowbar & Grill, whereshe worked. Kelver could be sentenced to up to 15 years in prison if convicted on both charges.

Kelver says one man in a group of men across the street from her started shouting homophobic and transphobic insults at her before the man allegedly shoved her to the ground in a downtown crosswalk, as reported by The Laramie Reporter.

There's more, as it pertains to Black trans people's right to self-defence:

Despite Wyoming’s “Stand Your Ground” statute, which allows people to use reasonable force in moments of self defense, Kelver faces up to 15 years in prison for both charges, as well as up to $11,000 in fines, per Cowboy State Daily. Kelver faces an additional year and $1,000 fine for a charge of interference with a peace officer. [...]

As pointed out by Slate, self-defense laws are often put into question when people from marginalized communities, especially trans people, use them, including Cece McDonald, a Black trans woman who served time in a men’s prison for defending her friends during a racist and transphobic attack. Ky Peterson, a Black trans man from Georgia, was also arrested and imprisoned for killing his rapist in self-defense.

I wrote a short explanatory piece on how gun control (in the USA, specifically) has always been a tool of oppressors against marginalized folks. You can find it on Tumblr here. Kelver needs assistance with her legal fees fighting these charges. Her crowdfunding sites keep being removed so here's her Venmo:

Please help her.

In September, a man pushed a trans woman to the ground in downtown Laramie. Antifascists identified him as a member of Patriot Front.

When Scott Durham pushed Ríhanna Kelver to the ground, she drew a gun in response. Kelver, a trans woman now facing two felony charges, said

Hope you don't mind me adding to this, i live in laramie and ive known ríhanna personally for several years and this incident has been so difficult for her, and additionally the attack exacerbated health issues for her.

a local reporter posted this article this morning that delves into her attacker's affiliation with the fascist patriot front org and the fact that since he moved to laramie in 2023 there has been a significant uptick in hateful activity and propaganda being spread throughout the town. this man was prevented from walking at his high school graduation by his own admission due to his racist, queerphobic, and antisemetic behavior.

one of the things that has been infuriating to me is that her attacker is not the one pressing charges. not the literal man she pulled a gun on, it is the police who are threatening her with 15 years in prison.

please help ríhanna if you can, she doesn't deserve this and it is depicting the increasing danger for trans women and other queer people in this city and state as a whole.

matter of fact, i remember when sobcommy got blowback for sending people rape threats - something he probably still does, let's be real - and when he got compared to a rabid dog he started crying abt serophobia. as if having HIV was the source of the comparison and not, you know, sending people rape threats. but yeah yeah the personal isn't political or something

happy disability pride month im still trying not to die

essentially i was already very chronically ill and constantly in the hospital for sepsis and then i had a surgery that went very badly and now ive spent my time in the hospital for 2 and a half months and then the last two weeks in a post-acute nursing home waiting for my next surgery.

i have a bowel perforation, have for the last 3 months and they wont do surgery until my nutrition labs are better. problem is, my nursing home wont accommodate my diet so my nutrition levels have actually gone DOWN instead of trending up like they need to. this means ive had to order a lot of delivery and my funds are running out fast. so i could really use some help with that bc this really sucks and i keep getting infections from the bowel leak and my intestines are literally exposed to air through a fistula on my belly rn. would really really appreciate the help bc again this sucks so bad, my quality of life is so poor right now and i just need to improve my nutrition levels so i can get out of this nursing home and back into the actual world please

in the hospital again due to neglect at the nursing facility. going to try to find a different option moving forward but unsure if i will be successful. anyways i still need help with food for when i most likely have to go back. i also will need help with affording a bed with a headboard that raises / reclines for when i move to my mom's. this is necessary for my health but its very expensive for the bedframe and mattress unfortunately :/ i cant sleep in a regular bed anymore, though, so its unfortunately a necessity

[thelastwhimzy]

yeah so the reason why i need a bed with a headboard that reclines/raises is that i can no longer sit unsupported. this means im basically stuck flat on my back or on my side about 24/7, as i cant lay on my belly anymore either. the bed is unfortunately really important. my mom wont let me buy a cheap hospital bed used because she's afraid of potential bedbugs so that isnt an option :/
