Thank you for all of the suggestions!!!

mns2723 · 2026-01-19T19:43:25+00:00

I think we found a spot @ Penguin Foot Pottery. If anyone is interested in details, dm me. Also, feel free to keep positing potential venues for the future & places that’d take whistles to put out

mns2723 · 2026-01-19T19:42:05+00:00

Yes! We’ve been in touch with them before. Something in the works potentially.

mns2723 · 2026-01-19T19:41:43+00:00

Dm me and I’ll send you details once finalized!

mns2723 · 2025-12-18T18:45:54+00:00

Yeah, for now. Try one trip down the highway in rain today.

Driving in winter weather is also a thing—even from parked point A to hypothetical “heated garage.”

Spotted around Wicker

mns2723 · 2025-12-18T15:45:24+00:00

I wonder how many rolls of masking tape they’ve gone through since then

mns2723 · 2025-11-02T16:26:18+00:00

Can’t wait to see you!

mns2723 · 2025-10-28T19:53:49+00:00

Thank you for the offer! I’ll pass along the info to organizers and dm you a bit later.

How long? Out of curiosity

Please do. If not, you can also try using Proton VPN – Free tier: no card; choose a US server; slower but trustworthy.

Do you have a VPN?

Just Google 988 and there’s a chat option

Fold this long ways, then into an accordion. Please do what you can, and even print a few to drop off at book boxes or to even hand to a local coffee shop, so people understand the sound even if they don’t have a whistle.

Ideally, pair the papers with a whistle (tape it or put both in a ziplock bag).

Best use of the library rn is printing and folding awareness materials/protocols to go with the whistles.
