In 2025, BINADW made a deliberate choice to step back from social media, platforms that throttle queer voices, reward outrage over nuance, and can disappear years of work overnight. Independent media survives differently: through newsletters, print, patronage, and communities who show up directly. When you subscribe, shop, or partner with us, you help sustain butch-centred storytelling on our own terms, beyond algorithms, beyond censorship, and built to last.
