How can we ask for currency when we have already asked so much so many times?

Why don't we "just get a job"?

We believe firmly and resolutely that the work we are doing to survive will beget the ability to thrive. And in turn, the work we do to thrive will beget the ability to function. And when we have a functioning home, we can build a functioning lab. And with a functioning lab, we can build a functioning gene editing system.

Being forced to move out into an unready school bus two years ago was not just a challenge, it was a hammer blow that could have spelled the end of our efforts. It could have been easy for us to throw in the towel and return to whence we came. But we aren't like that. And freedom of any kind is not what you should just give up on, let alone freedom of form.

Although we have tried on a few occasions to find employment to supplement income and raise funds for more than just the bare minimum, we have repeatedly found that the job market is an uncaring disastrous mess that takes away more than unemployment does, because when you account for commutes, taxes and payroll fuckery, not to mention bureaucracy and sheer low wages, and the instability of gig roles, and of course AI, it becomes far more favourable to use our precious time on improving our situation directly than gamble it on that shitfest.

Do we feel any guilt asking for help with money? Only insomuch as those who are sending it might be putting yourselves into financial problems by doing so (please only send what you can afford to send). Because we know we are using it for the most honest purposes we can, unlike so many other possible places that money could have gone. And one day our work may help you.

And one day maybe we will see the end of capitalism and not need arbitrary tokens of exchange for basic goods and services.

But, for now, we are thousands of dollars behind where The System needs us to be, so if any of you have encountered a windfall of late and wouldn't mind splitting some of it in our direction, or if you have some pocket change amount left over in your Paypal or Cashapp, please feel free to help us along a little more.

Edit: raised $50 so far. Please help us get that other $700 covered ASAP? If you can't cover it all, any part of it you can cover is less still to raise.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but if we can't raise Atha and Inara the $750 to cover immigration bureaucracy within the next week, a cascade of problems will unfold that jeopardizes the future of not only Atha and Inara, but also the entire project of the Vulpibus. Problems including a $500 fine imposed in court, points on the license, more expensive insurance, inability to get paid work in the USA and probably inability to leave the USA for any chosen reason too. Problems also potentially including deportation of Atha back to the UK.

USCIS made a mistake and they are leaving it to us to pick up the pieces, and fast.

Can you help?

Satellite investment sets annual record halfway through 2026

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://spacenews.com/satellite-investment-sets-annual-record-halfway-through-2026/

Vulpine Labs is based in the Vulpibus and is run by LGBTQ+ Otherkin folks!

Let's make Vulpine Labs happen sooner!
Things needed:
Bigger power inverter
Batteries

Grey and black water tanks for environmental safety and hygiene
Materials for sealing the lab and completing the home RV section in the back of the Vulpibus
Car repairs for supply runs (including CV joints, sway bar end links and the windshield)
Satellite Internet so we can be online anywhere
A new phone number
Food and drinks (including tea and coffee!)

And of course, debts to pay off including the car loan and a couple of credit cards maxed out when we were all forced to bundle into the bus in the first place in 2024.

How about if you have some spare monies, you pick an item or two from the list and sponsor it?

Send some love to @Kuniti_shino and Atha

The horrors persist, but so do we.

Someone who lives in a makeshift forest shelter wants to join us in the bus soon.

The Vulpibus now has an air conditioning unit fitted. We have installed a longer 4G antenna.
We almost had somewhere to go and park a while, but the landowner backed out. Again. And the convoy we are trying to form is moving along.

So the bus is still in need of a diesel refueling, and the current prices make that a matter of about $400. Links below.

We would really love to convert this bus to an EV but that is going to need a much more generous level of help than most folks here can provide.

There are also many debts to deal with, including car loan and insurance, and bureaucratic needs that have fees to pay. Capitalism is ruthless the most when it is legally enforced and you still don't have the means.

If you want to help out with any specific thing, please let us know. Otherwise donations are put to the most pressing need.

Tonight @Kuniti_shino needs to raise $20-$30 to cover EV charging so mizu can go get the SNAP/EBT card from an annoyingly distant county office (counties in this area are pooling services in adjacent counties sometimes).
The Vulpibus also needs fuel, around $180 worth.
The most recent money went to groceries, props for the rest of the solar panels, electronics parts cleaner fluid for the bus engine connections and a sillcock key for ease of water access in towns and cities.

Please send funds to:
PAYPAL https://paypal.me/inaraclocks
or KO-FI https://ko-fi.com/inamruzui as these put the money in the right place for use with EVGo and connected charging networks like Chargepoint.
If you want to donate via other means, please ask, we do have other options.

We have now banded together with other vehicle dwellers to begin to construct our first convoy. It's happening, with your help!

Sovereign demand and institutional capital reshape space economy

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://spacenews.com/sovereign-demand-and-institutional-capital-reshape-space-economy/

It's a tea-saster! A catastroph-tea! Atha, whose vessel origin is British, is left without a working electric kettle after the Vulpibus kettle was damaged by fire, by chemicals and by falling. Seriously, that kettle has seen some things.

Can we get a new one? The cheap plastic ones start from like $14, a metal one that might last longer is probably a bit pricier.

And maybe a pizza? It's been months since the Vulpibus folks enjoyed one.

In better news though, all the solar panels are up on the Vulpibus now! Yay!

College-Affiliated #PublicMedia Stand to Lose Big Under Cuts

The Trump administration’s cuts to #PublicRadio and television may create #NewsDeserts and limit experiential learning opportunities for students.

By Ashley Mowreader, July 23, 2025

"Recent federal cuts are hacking at an additional piece of college and university budgets and operations: on-campus broadcast and radio stations.

"On July 18, Congress voted to rescind $1.1 billion in federal funds for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (#CPB), which gives money to #NPR, #PBS and their member stations. The move hurts #LocalStations across the country, particularly in #rural regions, as well as dozens of broadcast hubs located at or affiliated with #colleges.

"More than half of NPR’s 1,000 member stations are licensed to or affiliated with colleges or #universities, according to NPR’s website. A 2019 PBS article listed 49 university and college public television licensees, a majority of which belong to public institutions—many of them flagship or public #LandGrant universities, but some community and technical #colleges as well.

"Data analysis by Alex Curley, a former NPR staffer and author of the blog Semipublic, found that university licensees were far more dependent than non-college affiliated stations on 'non-operating revenue,' which includes #CPBFunding and other money allocated by their parent organization to cover losses. Out of the 173 public stations Curley analyzed, 129 university licensees relied on nonoperating revenue for about 41 percent of their total revenue, compared to the 21 percent it covered for non-college–affiliated stations.

" 'For stations that lose federal funding, especially those who are losing a lot in relation to total revenue, that’s going to put a huge burden on their parent organization [the college or university] because they’re the only ones who can cover that deficit,' Curley said.

"On average, CPB funding makes up 12 percent of independently owned and operated public radio stations’ budgets, according to Northwestern University’s Medill School 2023 State of Local News Report. Curley’s analysis found that 15 percent of all stations relied on federal funding for 50 percent or more of their total revenue intake.

"An Inside Higher Ed analysis of Curley’s data found that cuts to CPB and other relevant federal funding could decimate university-based stations’ expected revenue.

Methodology

"To compile his database, Adopt a Station, Curley drew on two types of financial reports by public broadcast statements to identify where they sourced their revenue and how much federal funding they received. Based on these reports, Curley estimated how a lack of CPB dollars and other relevant grants would impact total revenue sources. [See the full database at link below.]

"#HowardUniversity’s TV station, #WHUT — which was recently awarded two Emmys for its work—lost as much as 21 percent, based on 2023 numbers from the station’s financial reports of revenue from federal sources.

"#KISU, the local station for #IdahoStateUniversity students and community members—which produces the athletics broadcast for Division 1 sports—is also poised to take a hit; 30 percent of the station’s funding comes from student fees, but an additional 30 percent comes from CPB.

"Some institutions host both radio and TV stations that saw budgets slashed. At #VincennesUniversity in #Indiana, TV station #WVUT is projected to lose 39 percent of its usual revenue from CPB dollars, while radio station #WVUB could lose 27 percent, according to Curley’s data, which would place greater pressure on the institution to fill the gap.

"In #WashingtonState, #SkagitValleyCommunityCollege’s radio station, #KSVR—which provides bilingual reporting to the Mount Vernon community, hosted by staff, local and student volunteers—is projected to lose 20 percent of its revenue.

"The cuts will also likely reduce opportunities on many campuses for students to gain hands-on experience working in a newsroom or alongside professionals. When cuts took place at public media stations in the past, those affiliated with a college or university were less likely to see reductions in force, Curley said—in part because the university could cover the losses they incurred.

"Now, in an environment where colleges and universities are facing deficits across revenue sources, college-based media stations have less of a safety net.

" 'I have no idea what’s going to happen,' Curley said. 'It’s almost new territory for many university licensees.'

"#ElizabethCityStateUniversity’s on-campus station, #WRVS, has five employees and a gaggle of student interns, work-study students and community volunteers who keep the station up and running. But under the latest federal cuts, WRVS’s expected revenue will be slashed an estimated 71 percent.

"Not every university-affiliated station has the same reliance on federal dollars; the University of Georgia’s WUGA, for instance, reported that just 1 percent of total revenue came from federal funds in 2023. The University of Florida’s WUFT-FM received about 5 percent of total revenue from the government, thanks in part to #fundraising efforts and in part to the success of the station in its local area, Curley said.

"A 2023 survey of 215 public radio stations found that, on average, colleges contribute less than 15 percent of funding to affiliated radio stations, and 80 percent of stations thought it was unlikely that they would receive additional financial support from their institution.

"In some parts of the country, student publications, radio and TV stations are the singular source of news for communities. But a lack of funding and support for current operations remains a primary barrier to getting more students involved in public media, according to a 2023 survey by the University of Vermont.

"The move to cut funding for CPB is generally unpopular with Americans. A Harris Poll on behalf of NPR published in July found that two-thirds of nearly 2,100 Americans surveyed support federal funding for public radio, with a similar number calling it a good value for taxpayer dollars. A 2025 survey found that 47 percent of viewers say PBS’s value for public dollars is excellent and an additional 29 percent said it’s good."

#DOGE terminates grant for #Maine #FilmArchive in #Bucksport

April 14, 2025

BUCKSPORT, Maine (WABI) - "A Hancock County non-profit says the Trump Administration abruptly terminated a six-figure federal grant this month.

"Northeast Historic Film in Bucksport has been dedicated to preserving Maine history for four decades.

"Executive Director David Weiss says he received a letter from the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, around 1:00 a.m. on April 2nd. That’s how they learned a $341,000 grant from the National Endowment for the #Humanities was canceled.

"The money was funding a project to catalog, digitize, and publish material NHF has collected from Maine television stations over the last 35 years. Weiss says they’re now looking at a $104,000 budget deficit and the paychecks of all seven archives staff members are taking a hit.

" 'The only good thing about it is that I don’t feel singled out, you know? I feel like this is just a broad thing that happened, and we got caught up in it. It’s not like they said, ‘You are bad.’ It’s just like, ‘Well, you’re all bad.’ So, safety in numbers, maybe that’s the best I can say,' Weiss said.

"While Weiss says an appeal wouldn’t do any good, there is the potential for them to be involved in a lawsuit to hopefully get some of the funding back.

"In the meantime, they’ve launched a #fundraising push to try to cover some of the losses. It’s raised $15,000 in just two days.

"If you’d like to contribute, visit oldfilm.org and click on 'GIVE.' "

Шестерых анархистов из России уже год удерживают в СИЗО по надуманному обвинению в создании «террористического сообщества». Суммарно по предъявленным статьям по российским законам нашим товарищам грозит от 5 до 15 лет заключения, а за организацию или руководство «террористическим сообществом» — от 15 до 30 лет или пожизненное заключение. Основное доказательство вины— это признательные показания данные под пытками.

Испокон веков главным инструментов репрессий является закон. Безумно то, насколько нагло государство может использовать свои бесхитростные схемы для избавления общества от «идеологически неудобных» людей. Для российских анархист_ок очевидно, что это дело — это расправа над либертариями, в которых путинский режим видит угрозу. Мы знаем, что все наши товарищи негативно относились к режиму, но это не даёт режиму право лишать их долгих лет жизни.

So random question... What are some fun fundraising ideas you all have? I am part of Zonta in my local community (it's an international organization about women's empowerment) and we are trying to come up with new fundraising ideas.

Some ideas we have are a virtual wine tasting, trivia night, a virtual 5k... We already do a stamp and scrap and a support your community raffle.

We are in rural northern Michigan. In person and virtual events are both an option.

I was invited to take part in the Florence biannual. I am honored and would love to take part. Looking into the cost it would cost me just to display my work up to $5000 plus the cost of travel, hotel, and food. Artist peeps how did you go about raising funds for your art fairs? Thanks #ArtFair #FlorenceBiannual2023 #Fundraising #grands #grandwriting #fundingart #artist #IrisRichardsonArtist #ArtFairs #FediArt #ArtBusiness #ArtCollectors
