續命破曉咖啡館募款活動 目標:募資95,500新台幣(線上或線下均可) 破曉咖啡館是《New Bloom》雜誌的實體空間。五年來,它已成為台灣、亞太地區乃至全球草根行動、進步政治、互助以及LGBTQ+友善的聚所。如今,我們急需​​您的支持。 除了不斷上漲的營運成本,上個月我們還意外收到了一張95,500新台幣(約3000美元)的帳單。我們的資金即將耗盡,難以維持營運。如果沒有新的支持和捐款,我們可能不得不在今年八月關閉咖啡館。

Hong Kong is So Back! The government can't even locate a venue that could accommodate 1,000 ppl to host an owner's corporation meeting which let the owners decide on the future of their rights to private property. Wanna invest in HK? Just make sure you would never be on the wrong side of power.

"Without more flexible, context-sensitive, and sustained support, the vital work of pro-democracy CSOs will remain trapped in a cycle of survival rather than transformation, weakening the social and institutional foundations needed for Myanmar’s future democratic transition" : - Aye Lei Tun

The resistance in Myanmar isn't always easy to donate to directly One place is: www.liberatemyanmar.net There are also orgs doing humanitarian aid work in areas the Junta won't allow aid to get to which also helps! Kachin Relief Fund: kachinrelief.org.uk Karen Women's Organisation: karenwomen.org

Budgeted for LegCo election publicity: 2021- HK$104 million 2025- $177 million $73 million for an extra 1.70% turnout, i.e. it cost $43 million for each 1% increase in turnout. $73 million for a 32,998 decrease in votes, i.e. every extra $2,213 spent meant a decrease in 1 vote

As of 10:30pm: Turnout percentage: 31.43% (2025*) vs 30.20% (2021) Votes: 1,298,261 (2025*) vs 1,350,680 (2021) Despite the higher turnout percentage, it is now unlikely the number of votes cast will be higher than the 2021 LegCo election

"What should human rights activists do when the nation state-led human rights order is eroding?" One tentative answer is that the human right community needs to rely on each other more. Individual wellbeing matters, and we should level our game to collective resilience. #UNRBHR2025

Autocrats love to smear mass protest and discontent as "foreign conspiracy" or "instigated by Western forces." Well Trump doesn't support democracy and USAID is axed, and autocrats are still scapegoating their failure and arrogance to external force

‬Holding companies accountable for wage theft: Over 900 garment workers owed millions

More than 900 Thai workers are owed millions of US dollars by the factory owner of Body Fashion Thailand Limited, and the prominent European and American brands who ordered their clothing manufactured there.
