Writers — when writing a character with a marginalized identity that you do not share, what do you do? What are your considerations or responsibilities or the way you approach it?
An important thing to remember about the gravy basket, is that when you're feeling most alone, there's some loud, obnoxious pirate directly behind you scooping water out with a tapas plate. An OFMD mutual aid bluesky for those who want to feel a little less at sea.

The amazing artists for the calendar will be posting their month using #AYearOfBelonging. If you don't want to be spoiled, avoid that tag!
(& you can still buy a calendar if you want! yearofbelongingcalendar.bigcartel.com )
A peek behind the curtain from a former mod: people get excited about unorthodox ideas!
As for the rest of it, they don’t have much bearing on your experience—there’s loads of support built in. The important thing is that collaboration with someone else energizes you.
Have fun!
I've seen so many posts today from ppl wondering if they should do the RBB for a variety of reasons (experience level, confidence, language, unorthodox idea) and the answer is YES. An event will be more interesting, fun, and successful w/your unique voice in it! If you have an idea, make it exist!
