1. Elon Musk is spending millions pushing Americans to VoteSafe, which bills itself as a voter registration site but is actually a digital surveillance machine.

It's true. Our local county election board always needs poll workers (because most are QUITE old and no one lives forever). You get to meet some of the most public-spirited and upstanding folks in your community AND do something very practical to protect democracy.

I know members of the DeVos family & some are perfectly fine but some are absolutely evil. Nancy DeVos has had it in for public education for eons. You all remember her? You have to ask yourself, why? An educated society has a level playing field in opportunity. Vote Benson Michigan! #Pinks

Double check your voter registration people. The clowns running this show are going to pull every filthy trick they can think of to retain power. Check your voter registration Texas.

Texans check your voter registration, especially those in Dallas, Collin, Denton, and Tarrant counties. From the article: Suspended voter registrations span the whole state, but these Blue/Blue leaning counties are targets: Dallas: +129,000 Collin: 56,000 Denton: 56,000 Tarrant: + 73,000

Greetings, non-Jews in academia! As we start another semester, here's your regularly scheduled reminder that the Jewish High Holy Days are coming up. If you wouldn't schedule an important meeting or exam on Christmas or Easter, don't schedule one on Rosh Hashana or Yom Kippur.

Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people
