In just 48 hours, over 170,000 people have signed on to push world leaders to condemn a horrifying new Russian law that will make it illegal to speak publicly about being gay, lesbian, bi, or transgender. Thank you so much for your incredible support, we couldn’t have gotten here without you. 

Our friends in St. Petersburg just told us about a protest they held in front of City Council this morning — and about being followed and dispersed by police. But we won’t back down, and Russia has taken notice: a vote on the law has been postponed until next week, November 30th.

This is a minor victory, but the fight is hardly over. There is a very real chance that this bill might pass, so we only have a small window to mount even more global pressure on Russian authorities to drop it. Here’s a video report from Polina, straight from St. Petersburg. Will you share her message to ask friends and family from all over the world to sign with you?

Dear followers,

I know I haven’t been there a lot, but… you can now find all the “fangirl” content (reblog and original posts of series) of this tumblr here : knowthatdarkisright and my melancholy tumblr here : shelterinthewoods.

 Sorry about that, I wanted to have them separated and couldn’t decide what to do with hyperborean-lives.

I hope I’ll see some of you !

Yes, I’ve been trying to teach myself to draw from picture, as quickly as possible, with just black and red pencils. The result is not beautiful, but I hope one day I’ll be able to draw properly from real things, quickly, … so training.
