if you give a shit about lgbtq kids & people of color and live in missouri, honestly, maybe the best thing you could do is run for something—schoolboard, house of reps, state senate. our systems may be broken but there are human consequences to sitting out & letting them fail. runforsomething.net

there are so so many great people in missouri, & so many people are like “sure, it’s a red state—it’s always been fucked. they should leave.” but this is all from 2023. this is happening in real time. even cis straight people, by and large, don’t like this shit. there’s room to stand up.
