you're going to be okay.

Ríhanna Kelver, a bartender and trans rights advocate in Laramie, has been charged with aggravated assault and possession of a deadly weapon with unlawful intent after a 13 September 2025 confrontation outside the Crowbar & Grill, whereshe worked. Kelver could be sentenced to up to 15 years in prison if convicted on both charges.

Despite Wyoming’s “Stand Your Ground” statute, which allows people to use reasonable force in moments of self defense, Kelver faces up to 15 years in prison for both charges, as well as up to $11,000 in fines, per Cowboy State Daily. Kelver faces an additional year and $1,000 fine for a charge of interference with a peace officer. [...]

Hope you don't mind me adding to this, i live in laramie and ive known ríhanna personally for several years and this incident has been so difficult for her, and additionally the attack exacerbated health issues for her.

a local reporter posted this article this morning that delves into her attacker's affiliation with the fascist patriot front org and the fact that since he moved to laramie in 2023 there has been a significant uptick in hateful activity and propaganda being spread throughout the town. this man was prevented from walking at his high school graduation by his own admission due to his racist, queerphobic, and antisemetic behavior.

one of the things that has been infuriating to me is that her attacker is not the one pressing charges. not the literal man she pulled a gun on, it is the police who are threatening her with 15 years in prison.

Hello everyone! I want to say thanks again to those who helped make my eye exam happen. But unfortunately, the results show that my vision has worsened by a lot, and I desperately need new glasses ASAP. So, my family agreed to drain all our week's funds in order for me to order them, plus my generous girlfriend came to the rescue with the last little bit needed. I deliberately picked a really cheap pair but still, it's a huge loss to try and recover.

I wish I could offer something in return, but where I am still recovering from my recent hysterectomy, I'm not fit to sell art or anything right now; I know I wouldn't be able to commit to it. All I can do is ask that if you have even a little bit to spare, I would really appreciate the assistance. 🙏

I apologize in advance for the fact that I'll likely share this a few times.
