Jack Lawrence (MTMTE/Lost Light Artist) Is Compiling A List Of People Providing Safe Spaces At The Upcoming

Jack Lawrence (MTMTE/Lost Light Artist) is compiling a list of people providing safe spaces at the upcoming TFCon in Orlando, Florida, due to the current political and social climate against LGBTQIA+ people in the state.

A lot of people invest in conventions and not everyone can afford to cancel, so this is a hugely important thing and it's awesome that he's doing it, which is why I'm sharing it here.

If anyone might be attending TFCon in Orlando, please be extremely cautious and use Jack's list to know who you can go to and where you can go at the event if you feel like you might need a safe place.

I'm hoping TFCon won't be holding any events in Florida next year (or ideally ever again), but this year things were arranged well in advance before things dropped off a cliff legislatively in FL, so everyone involved got screwed this time around.

I'm from Florida myself, unfortunately, and I don't advise ANYONE to travel there for any reasons whatsoever. It is extremely dangerous, and it was never a good place to begin with. It is a hellhole.

For those who don't have a choice, for example those who financially need to attend to make back merch/print costs etc., I truly do feel for you. Please, please be safe. <3

TFCon Orlando is also offering refunds to any LGBTQIA+ ticket holders who do not feel safe attending due to the location.

This is extremely cool of them to do, and if anyone planned to attend but no longer feels safe doing so, please contact them (details at the link above) and get a refund sorted out.

I want everyone to be safe, and don't feel bad if you either have to get a refund or if you feel like you have to attend. Either way, just be safe, and make the safest decision for you. <3
