In the last 3 wks you all knocked another 3% off this campaign. Which means there's only $5126 to close it out.

I had to stop attending births without a car because surge pricing and inclement weather was making it dangerous for all involved. Finishing this campaign can get me back in the game.
👋🏿 I'm Winifred. In 2025 I:

*Survived a MN winter w/o consistent heat/hot water
*Sold an "erotic houseplant horror" story
*Had surgery
*Did births in 3 diff states w/ 4 diff midwifery practices from off grid shacks to urban mansions to tiny apts

I'm exhausted but I'm only 9% away from fully funded.
Donate to Help Make Winifred a Midwife, organized by Aurelius Raines
My desire to leave Norway is perhaps Twitter's best kept secret but the cat is out of the… Aurelius Raines needs your support for Help Make Winifred a Midwife

Flashlights (not candles). Smoke/carbon monoxide alarms. Knowing where the vents to your home are so you can clear them of snow. Do it all. We're being given so much time with this storm.

The weather genre online spans a wide range of sources. Experts say that while weather influencers can help fill an information gap, social media platforms tend to prioritize likes over accuracy. n.pr/4byTNGX
Weather influencers are going viral. How much should we trust them?

As you prepare for the winter storm this weekend, learn your vents! Know which ones need to remain clear to avoid a deadly buildup of carbon monoxide. If you don't know which ones are dangerous, plan to clear them all.

You cannot detain or arrest a baby, you can only kidnap her. These people need to wear a scarlet letter, need to ring a bell to loudly declare their moral bankruptcy. Everyone must be allowed to avoid them until they have made amends.

I came to Congress to do the job: to work for people and protect them.

Now I’m facing 17 years in prison for standing up to this administration and to ICE. But if they think I’ll back down, they are wrong.

seems worth mentioning that Dylan went to one of the top musical theatre schools in the country
So apparently Dylan Mulvaney got cast in a Broadway musical... which resulted in transphobes losing their minds and threatening to "Bud Light" the show... and now the show's Twitter page is locked down. Cool cool.

Lots of good signs here, but I have to confess my favorite is a rebel alliance where they replaced the red insignia with blue and the Minnesota loon.

it's funny when watching US movies or tv shows i used to be like "man, they sure do use food poisoning as a plot device *a lot* in america..."

then i learned their food poisoning statistics and it blew my mind. that's just how they live!

people DIE of food poisoning regularly in the US.

it's MAD.

Carbon monoxide deaths spike in winter. If you're traveling, make sure where you're staying has working carbon monoxide alarms.

what I want trans kids, queer kids, and gender nonconforming kids to know:

you are loved

you are so much more powerful than the ghouls using your healthcare as a political pawn, and you WILL outlive them (they know this, and it is why they're attacking you)
