Speaking personally, not as QCERT, please read this. It captures how it felt to go in just 6 mos from the lonely, dark abyss of the closet to being an openly trans activist. “The world is a beautiful place filled with beautiful people, and the abyss will always be lonely, cold and dark.” 1/4

Thank you so much to our new volunteers from Bluesky! Honestly we are so, so grateful to be here on Bluesky where we have such an active, engaged follower base.

100 followers since Monday! As promised, we’re going to allow one lucky follower to join our team at the signal link below. I’m thinking first come first serve. So get while the gettin is good!

If we don’t have any volunteers, we’re going to select someone at random and send the GOON SQUAD to collect them. Did you know that GOON is one of the key QCERT roles?* *this is a lie

Sorry for the reduced posting rate today. Your humble Bluesky account admin is also on the IT team and she’s been struggling all day with the most annoying environment variable shadowing you could possibly imagine

Pressure works, fam! Particularly on those who comply in advance ;)

Pro tips for hot activists: 1. Always brush your teeth 2. Always change your underwear 3. Always remember to feel bad about all the sleep you're not getting

One thing about being a full time worker and a full time parent and a half-time activist is that it's really easy to skip showers and turn into a disgusting little gremlin

Get to know the roles of QCERT. This afternoon: KEEPER A Keeper is a grassroots individual volunteer pledges to provide housing for LGBT+ refugees. Almost half of homeless youth are LGBT+, so this role is vital in communities where we care for our own

Kings come and kings go, gods build thrones and leave them vacant. We persist, because We Protect Us

What a shame. Teamsters deserve better than this.

💙🫶✊ checkin’ y’all out to volunteer This is so necessary

YOOOOOO THIS! 👇

Resistance is an internal struggle. It’s a struggle to remain true to yourself and to let your love for your people overpower your fear of *them.* Queer people understand this as well as anyone. Stonewall was an expression of us loving ourselves and our community more than we feared our oppressors.

QCERT is looking for volunteers who are ready to say, enough is enough, I’m not waiting for someone else to step in and save me and the people I* care about, I’m fighting for us! *the brave and beatiful human reading this #LGBTQ #TransRights #NoKings #FiftyFiftyOne #WeProtectUs #resist

This is what real grass with deep roots looks like. If all you know is the astroturf you paid for, this is terrifying. You should be terrified. We Protect Us

We are legion!! #nyc #protest #50501movement #WeAreLegion
