We're on Bluesky! 🦋 @karadahouse.bsky.social 🦋

Yes, we're still on Instagram, but if we got banned tomorrow it wouldn't be a surprise.

👉🏼 We have a Telegram Group, plus our events are on Fetlife.

And a special Hi! to all our new subscribers here and new followers on Bluesky.

Check it out of the month is:

Beyond Bricks & Bars, a trans community-led decarceration project, “that provides direct support to trans and gender diverse people in prison, at risk of incarceration and those returning to their communities from prison.”

Happening right now: the Queer Intimacies conference. Here's Oya's poem, Kweering the Script from the workshop, Queering the Script.

📻 And song of the month — on high rotation — is The Muslims: Fuck these Fucking Fascists.

Like always: we create more joy together. Solidarity and Supporter tickets bring more of us into the room.

Online and at our place, we love seeing you.

🌀 Badass Fat Bitches 🌀

THICK HITCHES is a 3-day in-person rope conference with the emphasis on people and bodies who identify as fat.

This is a space where fat is the norm, we celebrate our super powers, and agitate for the change we want in rope communities.
