September 2025 Updates

Welcome back! I hope you had a great September! My updates for this month are below.

• I worked more on that piece I mentioned last time that stars adoptee characters. It’s been fun delving into how each character handles their differing situations.

• This is going to sound really random, but I’ve recently been very much enjoying blumineck’s shorts on medieval weapons and history. They’re all so entertaining!

That’s all for September! Feel free to share your adoptee writing updates and random YouTube recs in the comments. This month, I encourage you to support AIDESEP, an organization in Peru that supports the rights of Indigenous peoples along the Amazon. It appears that you need a Peruvian identification number to support them financially through their website, but you can follow their social media accounts for more information about their actions. I also encourage you to support On the Rise, a Massachusetts community and Safe Haven for women, transgender, and nonbinary people moving through homelessness, and to follow Refugees in Niger, which brings attention to the Black African refugees protesting the neglect and human rights abuses they are facing in Agadiz.
