What we say and how we say it can really matter, so our newest zine is on how to talk to friends! (1/2)

Some people find healing in having conversations with abusers or assailants. Scarleteen has resources that help people decide if, and how, they want to do that. This read can also be helpful if you’re supporting someone else who’s going through this.

Scarleteen is raising $40,000 to support the healthcare needs of staff and volunteers who do this vulnerable, crucial, intimate work. 204 people have donated $23k; please join them today and share. www.classy.org/campaign/scarl...

Last night we broke a record for attendance with over 21 furs coming out to socialize and have fun carving pumpkins! Nights like these are what make our special little community feel the most real. 🥰🎃😻🎃

We raised $150 for RTFA and found this one-of-a-kind souvenir a great home thanks to the wonderful donor that won our silent auction! To find out more about RTFA, get involved on telegram, or donate to public education and community safety in the furry fandom: linktr.ee/realtalkfurall

ACFI 2025, our first convention booth for RTFA, was an amazing success! Thank you so much to everyone who stopped by to talk, take zines and resources, and donate for prints! Can't wait to hopefully do it all again in a few months at LSFC!

Our ACFI booth is here! We'll be hanging out resource sheets for San Antonio, San Marcos, and Austin along with our community support zines from 10-6 every day! Find us right across from the board game room.

Tomorrow is the first day of #ACFI2025! We could not be more excited over here. 🥳 Stop by our community support booth for zines, local resource information, and FUN! @furryinvasion.bsky.social

Our local meet last night was so much fun! We folded zines for #ACFI2025 and ate Okonomiyaki together. 💖

This is an amazing guide, #1 is great not just for homeless teens but for anyone that feels powerless and afraid as a queer person in the US and doesn't know where to start.

We want to make sure that you know about -- and share -- some more safe direct help resources available on Scarleteen and elsewhere, as well as some content on our site that might now or soon be particularly relevant to you if you live in the United States. (1/9)

Lot of protests today at capital buildings. For those who can’t do that, calling our representatives seems to be helpful. You can get “5 Calls” app, put in your address, get a list of issues to pick from, then gives you a script to follow. 1 minute calls, super easy. Calls better than email.

In case it helps someone: The phrase “We don’t do / say that here” is immensely useful in managing people who feel emboldened to try to push boundaries and test behaviour norms in your spaces. It’s a bland statement of fact, doesn’t contain an accusation, and can be used by anyone including peers.

Our website is up and we are live! Follow for event announcements, update information, and more! Find out more about who we are, what we believe, and a link to our Telegram at www.realtalkfurs.org
