Please read this thread. This program really is important to ensure QTBIPOC folks are safe and have a space to play at PAX events. Read, it, share it, and email PAX with your support. Direct action is needed.

With the nightmares for QTBIPOC in the United States right now, it is so so telling that @officialpax.bsky.social has decided that 2026 is the year to cut support and funding for The PAX Intersection & its PTI programs that made a PAX safer & life changing event for devs & attendees of color alike.

This whole thread makes me angry (not at the poster, at Pax). We need to make noise about this. @officialpax.bsky.social is there a reason you are cutting a space so many value? Would love to hear the reasoning.

Exhibiting at the PTI booth at PAX East has been an invaluable experience, and the organizers did a great job. It's incredibly disheartening to see this program at risk of getting cut from PAX West and Unplugged, as institutions cede ground. Please read, signal boost, and save the intersection.

Friend, the PAX Intersection is such a needed space at these conventions. This has always been a space for people to gather, find community, support one another, and enjoy the con in a way that's comfortable and safe. Losing this space would an incredible loss for everyone. See the thread below:

I highly encourage you all to email PAX, hop in their DMs, their comment section, and share your experiences of your times in the Intersection Library and it's PTI programs. This is fucking egregious. I'm asking for my community to email them ASAP paxquestions@reedexpo.com

Listen good, and listen well. If you care about spaces rooted in community and care, then please reach out to PAX and tell them how deeply important The PAX Intersection and PTI programs are. Please read this thread, share it, and #SaveTheIntersection EMAIL THEM here: paxquestions@reedexpo.com

Also Just to make it clear, The PAX Intersection is the ONLY place that requires and trains on safety tools. We are the space where trans people come after they are misgendered in a game and enforcers did nothing. Where Black folks get support when the mental health room doesn't understand racism.

As a Black, Queer, Disabled person in a country that tries to destroy people like me, I can't be silent. It's clear that this may be the only way to get @officialpax.bsky.social to continue supporting inclusivity. I want folks to keep having a safer space where they can exist. #SaveTheIntersection

The PTI is how I got my start exhibiting at conventions. The work Cassie does with the PTI is so important. Please share and listen to everything Cassie has to say here.

Pls come support this incredible story full of laughs, love, and community! twitch.tv/baddiebards Check out this clip from their last ep w/@howdylovedarlin.bsky.social & @madamavacouture.bsky.social 💜 (2/4)

I cannot stress enough how much getting involved in organizing and activism in your community will help you feel better about the state of the world. The stress and helplessness don't disappear, but the work shows you that you *can* affect change and that others *do* care. It helps a lot!

Anna 🌿👁️@annacwebs.bsky.social · last mo.

Action allows your nervous system to regulate: it allows the adrenaline/norepinephrine to be discharged, which allows the body to relax (polyvagal style). So if you're sick and tired of feeling scared and afraid: consider organizing or getting involved in mutual aid. It doesn't just help others.
