OH SERIOUSLY! C’mon US federal government! The solution to a caregiver crisis in the US is Ai????? Good gosh this is utterly ridiculous. Hey federal government, I have an idea how to spend that money to help with the crisis of not having enough caregivers. I betcha that 2 million $ prize could be spent, I don’t know here, just spitballing it—on giving the caregivers a living wage and maybe benefits!!!

Oh I am so pissed. What a stupid idea. I guess anything to NOT pay a competitive wage though. Yikes.

Storytelling is one of the most powerful ways to create and sustain community. Mutual aid thrives on storytelling from individuals and communities about the harmful systems that impact them. Mutual aid storytelling can only be told from non-hierarchical, anti-capitalist and outside of the system mutual aid networks. Any story that you read or hear from a nonprofit or institution can only be described as trauma porn. Stay connected to your mutual aid group and listen to their stories.

This is how you fight capitalism and create alternative systems! Mutual aid is the answer.

Sharing stories are the best way to teach each other lessons of mutual aid!

We need to build relationships during this time, not just collect and distribute stuff.
