DOWNLOAD THE LATEST ISSUE.

Hey. Washington state actually did pretty well.

But... yeah.

I'm sorry if you're in a position that feels unsafe, and I hope that you can be kind to yourself. Just know that you are not alone. WE HAVE US.

That's the message I keep hearing:

WE HAVE US.

Liam, our awesome intern/managing editor/all-around-get-stuff-done guy, had a great idea. He said he wants to give a voice to the unhoused people that don't often get the chance to be heard.

We were already talking to some local distribution and mutual aid groups, and realized that this is a worthwhile project to put a lot of energy toward. So please look out for that, and know that small groups and micro-communities are only getting stronger. We will use what power and privilege we have to take care of each other in the community—and by community, I mean EVERYONE (that wants to be in community with us... I can explain what that means if you want; just message me). Grassroots ftw!
