Attention is cheap. Alignment is rare. We don't need permission to change how power looks, fucking do it anyway.
To anyone making a living off their image: you don’t owe the world constant perfection. The work still counts when you’re resting, healing, or rebuilding.

Under capitalism, survival becomes contingent on selling labor—and sex work is one of the few markets where marginalized people can exert some degree of control over that transaction.

When it feels like the darkness is winning, remind yourself: Empires have fallen. Tyrants have crumbled.
What they don’t tell you is that movements are made of ordinary people. The arc of history bends because people like you do not give up. Keep bending it.

This is why sex workers should be embraced by the left. No other group has learned to survive this far outside established systems of support — banking, funding, social media, legacy media, law enforcement.
They're the first person you want on a quest.

So the far right had to build out an alternate media strategy. Along came the internet and social media. And they were largely cut out of the latter as well.
But the structure of the internet is inherently decentralized, as much as we are used to thinking of some companies dominating it.

Hit me with your thoughts. What words capture this? What phrases come to mind when you think about learning how to actually show up for each other in meaningful ways?
It'd be great if it was a snappy name that made folks feel like the heros they are and more inclined to join.

“Mutual aid” is often just monetary resource-sharing, but this is about the people behind it—how we take care of each other, how we stop being so disconnected, and how we make community care an actual practice, not just a nice idea. Because care should be reciprocal!

Basically, all the ways we can actually be useful to each other in the world we live in now.
So here’s my question: What do we call this? “Ally” feels too one-directional, like it’s about helping “others” rather than building a network of care for all of us. Advocates? Avengers?

Because once the aid is given, people are still often alone—and we want to change that.
This includes soft skills for the fight ahead—holding space, conflict resolution, de-escalation, being helpful in a crisis, skill-sharing, dismantling racism, first aid training, research, organizing, etc.

This is about learning how to show up for each other—both for people who share your experiences and for those who don’t. It’s about mutual aid that goes beyond just $$ resources and actually cultivating stronger relationships, deeper understanding, and real community support that goes both ways.

A lot of “allyship” programs focus on how to support people who *aren’t* like you, but that’s not quite the vibe.
I want to help people find their commonalities. Things have become so divisive and people retreat to their own corners.

Hey friends, I need your collective brains on this.
We’re launching a new programming initiative focused on building real, tangible skills for collective care, and I’m struggling with what to call it.

We encourage you to follow suit, to build community where you are, because we need this in EVERY corner of our country.

We create a ripple effect of resilience, empowerment, and hope—because when one of us thrives, we all do.
At The Autonomy Project, we don’t just talk about change; we create the conditions for it. This is a space that doesn’t just exist—it actively resists.

When we say that building community is political, we mean it. Every event, workshop, and support group is an act of resistance. Every connection made here strengthens the bonds that help people weather the storms of discrimination and inequality.

Legislation targeting queer identities, sex workers, minorities, and women is on the rise. Social safety nets are eroding, leaving vulnerable populations at greater risk. In this climate, having a space that educates, empowers, and uplifts is a lifeline.

No one else is doing what we do in Ohio—because no one else brings these diverse groups together under one roof to build something stronger than fear: community.
The political and social stakes couldn’t be higher right now.

What sets us apart is how deeply we serve at the intersection of marginalized identities: queer, trans, BIPOC, sex workers, creatives, and allies. This isn’t just a collection of individuals; it’s a coalition of people working together to dismantle oppression and imagine new possibilities.

queer-centered celebrations, mutual aid for those in crisis, or advocacy town halls to mobilize action, we foster spaces that are unapologetically inclusive, fiercely protective, and radically empowering.

it’s a sanctuary where people can come as they are, free from judgment, stigma, or fear.
When we gather, we create more than just joyful moments—we create safety, solidarity, and power. Our community is a direct response to the forces that seek to divide and silence us. Whether it's through

We burned this effigy tree for the solstice, which was covered with art, writings, memorials, and heavy feelings from our community. It's simple rituals like this that have great power when we do them together.
