Becca: At the moment Becca is a carpenter by trade, hoping to start a farm someday full of healing and good communication and veggies of course. She is genderqueer (you can also call her "they") and loves the woods, riding in the house bike gang, and eating mostly vegan food except for the occasional trip to fried chicken. She practices Kajukenbo martial arts to keep her voice and spirit strong and co-counseling to keep her heart tender.

"Two of our community members is moving out, and we're looking to fill their room. Our community is made up of two semi-affiliated neighboring houses in the Cully neighborhood. We are looking for someone(s) who are looking to live with us, sharing food, household chores and projects, child-rearing, and our lives. Here are some reasons you might not want to live with us:

  • You don't like and/or feel uncomfortable around nonmonogamous, queer, and/or genderqueer people.
  • You are not excited about living with children (merely tolerating them is not enough).
  • It is important that you live in a house with a microwave.
  • It is important that you live in a house with a television.
  • You would be uncomfortable living in a house where people raise and slaughter animals, cook them, and serve them for supper.
  • You would be uncomfortable with open and frank conversations about sex at the supper table.
  • You must smoke cigarettes or other tobacco products at or near your home.
  • It is important to you that your front door be kept locked.
  • You would be uncomfortable with occasional groups of 10-15 trusted strangers staying in your home for 3-4 days at a time.
  • You would be uncomfortable with a rotating cast of regular overnight guests, at least 1 or 2 on most any night.
  • Loud voices and laughter bother you or you frequently need a quiet house.
  • It would bother you to come home to find one of your midwife housemates dehydrating a human placenta.

If none of the above are relevant to you, keep reading.

We are (currently) a somewhat ill-defined family group(s?) of 5 adults, 1 toddler, and one fetus, one father and his 2 half-time children (7 and 9), one young monogamish couple, 1 adults with no immediate family in the house, one adolescent cat, one older cat who doesn't come in the main house, and you. The adults are mostly in our mid 20s through early 40s, we enjoy board games (strategy games in particular), cooking for each other, preserving food, gardening, brewing, medicine making, and partner dancing.

It is important to us to live with people who share our values around the treatment of children. We believe children are small humans rather than future humans. This means it is important to treat them with the same respect and dignity we would afford other adults. In a practical sense, this means respecting their boundaries, including them in conversations, allowing them space to make their own mistakes, and directing questions about them to them.

Michael: is 32 and has been in the Bay for 8 years now. He is committed to restorative, diverse community in Oakland. He is a white Jewish queer cis man with roots from Russia and Poland. He is a lover of justice across the board and aspires to be a truth teller in all aspects of life. You might find him on the block getting to know neighbors, playing the guitar, doing anti-racism work, in the classroom, on the streets at a demonstration, or on the basketball court.

Oddly, I might have signed up for this in college, but now can enjoy this humorously.
