A space for LGBTQIA+ people to express themselves.


RULES

  1. Familiarize yourself with the site-wide Code of Conduct

  2. Be nice to each other, no bigotry of any kind
    Bigotry includes transphobia, homophobia, aphobia, sexism, racism, ableism, etc. Hold each other accountable. If you see something, say something.

  3. Don't link to transphobia
    Please don't link to transphobia (or other bigotry), even if your personal intent is to challenge the bigotry in some way. Provide a content warning label in the title of your post where applicable.

  4. Be dank; don't be not-dank
    No liberalism, capitalist apologia, imperialism, etc.

  5. Harassment
    Cyber-stalking, harassment, and all other forms of threatening another comrade will result in removal.
    Threatening, inciting violence, and promoting harm to another comrade shall result in removal.

  6. No sexually explicit content
    As badly as some of us want to get saucy here, do not post sexually-explicit content that could reveal your personal or confidential information. Until there is a way this could be safely executed, all sexually-explicit posts will be removed to keep our comrades safe.

  7. Do not post NSFL Content
    It will be removed.

  8. We are not a crisis service
    We can't guarantee an immediate response. This does not mean no one cares. If you need to talk to someone at once, you may want to take a look at this directory of Hotline Numbers.
    If you need help but don’t feel comfortable making a post for any reason, please message the moderators. We will be glad to talk with you privately, or help in any other way that we can.

Hi! Jamie Berrout made a really intentional decision to drop off the internet. I think its important to respect her wishes and not spread her work too widely. Me and @[email protected] have had some conversations about it in the past. Interested in hearing your thoughts.

I say this as a total hypocrite who spent years looking for 'Otros Valles' too @.@

I think it'd be better to have it available to anyone that wants it now that it's unavailable commercially afaik, but I'll take the link down for now.

She never really had it available commercially. It's tough trying to pick the right thing to do here. It feels important to me to advocate for her self-deletion, but I'm not going to begrudge you for coming to a different conclusion.
