btw if you live in the midwest (a region where a lot of the states are going to have trigger laws or ban abortion completely it looks like) and if it’s possible that you can leave ur state, get to illinois. Illinois isn’t just a state where abortion is permitted, in illinois abortion is strictly a protected right. illinois’ right to abortion is permanent and isn’t going to be changed anytime soon. in illinois your abortion rights are completely confidential. illinois is one of the easiest states to access abortion in and the process is fairly simple, and it’s going to always be legal to do so even as the right to abortion is overturned in other states. it’s very much a safe haven to anyone who needs to flee their state right now. if anyone can provide any resources and links that would be greatly appreciated.

here is a post detailing how you can get an abortion in chicago.

it’s extremely in depth and shares a lot of very valuable info if coming here is in your best interest.

Just to mention it, as I’m sure others have, as of 6/1/2022 all minors can get an abortion in Illinois without parental consent or parental notification (previously, you had to get a court order to skip the notification). Also, Midwest Access Coalition is a group dedicated to providing funds to those who need to travel here to get an abortion. Please do pass this info on to anyone who may need it.

something like 80% of the chicago abortion fund’s funds were used for people coming in from out of state.

that’s not a bad thing at all, it’s necessary medical work. please do come here. we’d love to have you in.

everyone else: donate to the chicago abortion fund.

The latest estimates are that an additional 20,000-30,000 people will be coming to Illinois to access abortion care from surrounding states now that roe’s been overturned. Every penny going to the organizations the people above mentioned is so, so needed.

Back in 2019 i found a guide to equipment used by protesters in Hong Kong. I think it's useful and a lot of it could be applied to protests happening in the us:

(+ goggles might be good against tear gas as well)

actually disregard what i said about leaving your phone at home. turn off your location, but bring the phone in case you witness police brutality and need to record it

Nice try, officer.

Do not bring your phone.

Turning off the location (or turning your phone off) does not stop it from pinging cell towers, which can get you tracked down.

"Recording police brutality" won't do shit except expose faces of your fellow protesters and serve as potential proof that you were there. Nothing will be done about it if it gets on social media except get people on trouble.

people wanna talk about "don't self diagnose autism" meanwhile the autism test is damn near 3k dollars, a lot of people don't believe women can have autism, and (for black people) doctors don't believe them when they say they have literally anything. so.

Don't forget that an official diagnosis can seriously fuck you over from a legal standpoint.

your friendly reminder that being anti-self dxing is classist and racist and this blog is pro informed self diagnoses
