DISTRO SISTERS: Success!

Despite the failure of Sista Surge Media to meet its goal by the deadline, Distro Sisters is going strong, and is projected to launch by the end of the month! We could not have done this without you! We still, however, urgently need your support in our Florida launch, and further expansion!

▪︎ [FUND US]: https://donorbox.org/distrosisters ▪︎ [DONATE]: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ls/ref=mw_dp_wl_v?&lid=2O442WOIL51HB&ty=wishlist ▪︎ [JOIN US]: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeP87HnK5cfkfOlozKvemFai0oqpmV2wYPIvqkcfFX93tcA1w/viewform?usp=send_form

We have branches planned for the Atlanta, Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Tampa areas. In the coming months, we will be reworking Sista Surge Media to pitch to investors and large donors, so that we can continue operations without relying on financial contributions from our supporters. We realize that there are many causes our sisters support, many of varying urgencies and demands—so we want to be able to support those too!

We were able to get food, medicine, menstrual hygiene products, and personal hygiene products thanks to the help we’ve received from all of you! We thank you for that, and appreciate your efforts! Now, all we need is funding for a small warehouse bay which will function as our base of operations, shelving units, first aid kits, and a refrigerator to store the perishables. We have our sister Natalie who is providing us with uniforms, and Yaya Por Vida who provides us with NAXALONE and contraceptives, so thank you to our precious allies!

We also understand that some sisters would be more willing to send contributions when they are tax-deductible, so we’re currently working on a non-profit to help us collect contributions efficiently, and to help fund other efforts that are close to all our hearts. Sista Surge Media will be the foundations of these operations. It will provide our sisters with jobs, and supply a large portion of funding to our other initiatives, like the International Womyn’s Army, ReproFight, and Distro Sisters.

If you are still willing and able to contribute in its current form, you can do so at: https://donorbox.org/sistasurgemedia

Thank you, deeply, to everyone who is involved, or has been involved at some point! You are deeply appreciated!

In strength, sisterhood, and solidarity

Some devastating facts about abortion rights in Europe:

Polish abortion laws lay out that the rights of a foetus are more important than those of pregnant persons.

In Malta, women are sent to prison if they get an abortion.

In Austria, abortion is written into criminal code - this means it is considered a crime if it is not carried out as by the law. Doctors in Austria use papayas to learn how to perform an abortion.

Women in Hungary are forced by the law to listen to “the foetal heartbeat” before they can have an abortion.

The current law governing abortions in Germany was accepted during the Nazi regime. It is still referred to as “the Nazi law” by some movements.

In Italy, 80% of doctors refuse to perform an abortion. Plus, the government is financing movements that enter abortion clinics and harrass women who want to get an abortion.

Abortion rights in Europe are fragile. Sign our initiative to make abortion safe and accessible to everyone in the EU.

With us living in a time where men are literally yelling “your body, my choice”, I’d like to share a few links to things I highly suggest looking into getting especially if you rave and travel alone.

This is the NightCap scrunchie, which provides cover for your beverages. You can find cheaper, disposable ones here if you want to bring some to share: https://a.co/d/grcCLTD

These are roofie check wristbands. Each wristband has the ability to test 8 times, and they come in packs of 2, 12, 24 or 100. You can find similar tests in a portable strip or even wallet card form if the bracelet cramps your style, the wallet cards can be found here: https://a.co/d/ekHTSzi

These are discrete emergency whistles. They come in 2 or 4 packs, and in silver or gold.

4: https://a.co/d/an1k7qF

This is a small personal alarm created by women, for women. It does not have a button, but rather has a pin mechanism. The alarm’s battery lasts up to 40 minutes, and because it is not considered a “w3@p0n” like pepper spray, you can take it anywhere, including on planes.

This one is a mini, rechargeable stun gun.

Not everyone has time and money to take self defense classes - but if you were to purchase all of these items, your total would be less than $100. Your life is priceless. Please take care of yourselves, and please feel free to share this with your friends and copy/paste to your pages. Stay weird yall!

White supremacy and colonization really forced that male/female binary forced onto so many communities, lands, and cultures, huh?

hate how women being gnc is just her being normal and natural and human like not shaving hair, no makeup etc. but when a man is “gnc” he actually chooses to conform to another societal standard (wearing makeup, painting nails, etc)

Free Palestinian women. Free Kurdish women. Free Afghan women. Free Syrian women. Free Sudanese women. Free Congolese women. Free Somali women. Free Yemeni women. Free Indigenous women. Free Rohingya women. Free Uyghur women. Free Haitian women.

None of us are free until all of us are.

i hate the way makeup and beauty ads pitch their products. there’s this angle that’s like: ‘the frustration you feel with an insane beauty practice that only women are expected to engage with is solely because you’re using the wrong product.’

hate wearing foundation? you’re using the wrong one. try this. try that. try our new skin-healthy paste that comes in seven million colors, just like women do! watch them twirl and smile in this tiktok ad, now with 75% more body diversity! tired of breakable ineffective razors and ingrown hairs? try hair removal cream. try our luxury waterproof trimmer. try our special diverse queer razor that makes you feminist and empowered! look at this real life cool girl removing her real life body hair — that could be you, if you buy our subscription box! aren’t we so progressive? you too can be progressive and individual while staying smooth and sexy and inhuman and consumable!

like no you know what? if you hate wearing foundation, stop wearing it. if you’re tired of razors and razor burn, stop fucking shaving. if you want to get the fuck out of this capitalist patriarchal hellhole, stop buying product after product to make yourself acceptable to men. it’s really not that hard.
