Mobile Mutual Aid with the Auto(nomous) Body Shop

Leave a comment

This week, you’ll hear two segments.

TFSR 10-11-26 | Mobile Mutual Aid with the Auto(nomous) Body Shop (PGH)" alongside a cartoon van dropping tons of harm reduction tools with hearts on the window, driving through a spooky, Halloween background

First up, we spoke with Crystal and Alecia from the Auto(nomous) body shop. From their website:

TheAuto(nomous) Body Shop is a Pittsburgh based mobile mutual aid resource supporting bodily autonomy & community care. We provide free info + supplies + propaganda to support & empower folks to be the go to friend for reproductive health, abortion care, & harm reduction in their community. We also fundraise for repro health to break down barriers to care, conduct workshops, collaborate with & support other mutual aid orgs.

The discussion touches upon the many facets of their organizing in the Pittsburgh region, the climate for reproductive healthcare and gender-affirming care in Pittsburgh and the surrounding area, and their expansion into other regions of the state. The conversation also includes discussion of their coalition-based strategy to broaden the breadth and depth of their efforts and the need for joyful celebration of their values and goals. To that end, we get into the social events and zine publication coming up later this month.

Anti-LGBTQIA+ Repression in Turkey

[ 00:45:55 ]

Then, we share an interview by FrequenzA out of Germany with a guest about recent repression against queer people and organizations across Turkey from September 12-14th, 2026. This crackdown against activists, organizations and spaces was named “My Family Is Safe”, with the reactionary government of Erdogan’s AK Party using the same rubric of upholding cis-hetero nuclear families as the only healthy model against “gender ideology” as you hear from regimes in the US under Trump, Russia and from right wing movements around the world. This interview will also appear in episode 106 of B(A)D News: Angry Voices From Around The World from the A-Radio Network, of which we’re a member.

This week, you’re hearing our recent interview with journalist, author and comic creator Spencer Ackerman about his 2021 book, Reign Of Terror: How The 9/11 Era Destabilized America and Produced Trump . This felt like a fitting chat to record as we approach the 25th anniversary of that event in the dystopian second administration of that reality tv boss Donny J Trump. In the chat we cover some of the topics in the book, like the legalistic and lingustic wrangling of subsequent administrations to expand US exceptionalism to international standards of war and human rights around captured prisoners, expansions of domestic spying and generally how the state of emergency created in 2001 has been used by Democrats and Republicans since to lay the ground work for the naked imperialism abroad and racially eliminationist policies in the US.

I definitely suggest you check out Forever-Wars.com for more of his journalism and find announcements there for the pre-order of his comic book No One Escapes the Dialectic coming out in November and the upcoming pre-order for his book The Disappeared: A Father, A Son and the War On Terror, scheduled to come out in March of 2027.

Anti-Repression Updates from the UK (with NetPol)

This week, we’re sharing a conversation with two anti-repression organizers in the UK who are both associated with NetPol, or the Network for Police Monitoring as well as other defendant support projects. For the chat we speak about the sort of work their orgs are involved in, changes in sentencing amongst protestors, increasingly violent police suppression of antifascists counter-demonstrating (and greatly outnumbering) anti-immigrant crowds, the Filton Palestine Action cases and more. We hope you enjoy and you can find some links in the show notes on where to find more of Maya and Andy’s work.

We recorded this interview several weeks ago, before Palestine Action was proscribed by the US as a Specially Designated Terrorist Entity and has had sanctions applied to it by the US State Department, so it’s notable that we can legally not suggest anyone offer material support to Palestine Action thanks to the Anti-Antifascist US government as they could be punished under US law.

The Situation with NoBlogs (a midweek special featuring Sabot Media and CrimethInc)

Sabot Media and CrimethInc)"

In this mid-week special, you may have noticed a change in our introduction, that we’re listing TFSR.Media as our website (a work in progress, currently pointed at our blog, soon to be pointed at our new web host). This is because we’re moving our website from NoBlogs.org following the August 26, 2026 announcements by the US State Department and Department of Treasury that designated the hosts of NoBlogs, the Italian autonomous tech collective Autistici / Inventati as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist and placed it on the Specially Designated Nationals list under Executive Order 13224. In this conversation you’ll hear a member of the crimethinc ex-workers collective and Sprout from Sabot Media talk about the designation, the intended impacts on anarchist, antifascist and other movements by the US government, and what can come next if we’re up for the fight.

Update: Via their updates page, KeepItAlive.AI, September 6th Autistici/Inventati announced that it would be shutting down. This development saddens us but we can’t fault them after a quarter of a century of amazing work. and it works to underline the critical need for infrastructure for movements for liberation that is somehow defensible from capitalist and authoritarian states, where we can communicate among our movements, across their borders. As they say, Stay Human.

I invite listeners to check out the statement from CrimethInc as well as the public letter still awaiting more signatures and articles available on the subject from sabot.media. There’s also a recent chat by Outlaw podcast with Shayana Kadidal of the Center for Constitutional Rights on the legal elements of this chat, alongside a list of rad servers from Riseup that could be helpful for people looking for new web hosting homes for their projects.
