![CW: COVID, death
Alright y’all,
here is the real: in February a community and member died suddenly related to post-COVID complications. Honestly we are really fucked up about it. Individually and Collectively we are all processing in our own ways. We all had unfinished something. As always is the case with sudden death. We are all trying to figure out what it looks like to be, to be together and to continue. We are grieving. We are exhausted.
Before this we were grieving and exhausted.
We will not be responsive to messages here on Instagram or Facebook for… a while? And while the Discord spaces are always open , we will not be holding group space or checking emails to let folks into Discord space until we can extend some care internally and heal.
We are always accepting support, aid, and co-conspirators. So if that is you feel free to send it or reach out. We just do not have capacity to take on any requests right now.
Tone is genuine, loving and informative
Warmly,
Tender Fruits Collective
