Quality leather goods, especially if taken care of, will last a long time and there’s no good reason that they can’t be properly cleaned, conditioned, and re-distributed should they fall out of personal favour.
This event is a chance for pleasure seekers, sex educators, and toy designers + sellers to come together- and share what we are coming for/with.

Ideally these policies would be alive, informed by robust science, and clear enough in structure to provide ample safety and compassion for all involved in the process.
When I was 19 I moved to Halifax. Right on Barrington, across from the diner I worked in the kitchen, was and still is Venus Envy. That store changed my life, without question. It was where I bought my first, and second dildo, as well as where I first ever learned that transmasculine people existed…
Now that the child has started kindergarten, I am finding my way back to the other things that I used to balance my time with. I never have a shortage of ideas for projects I would like to see happen, or things I want to help out with, but the challenge is often about how…

This is an opportunity to acknowledge, respect and appreciate the wisdom and leadership of queer, trans, sex worker and drug user communities when it comes to public health, testing, harm reduction, and health advocacy.
Much of the content I originally compiled for the Resilience Building for Trans Folks and Our Allies course has become a bit stale dated over the past 4 years. In effort to make some of the content available so as to support my contribution to Trans Awareness Week, I have made a Notion board that…
