Anyway I just sent a fax to my senator. faxzero.com/fax_senate.php

Found out that TWENTY emails is considered a lot to politicians on an issue. TWENTY. As in, they call that getting slammed. So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind. TWENTY is a lot.

You have no reason to use AI on your project when so many free resources exist. You just don't.

Just a reminder that you can also fax your Senators for free, if you really wanna annoy them faxzero.com/fax_senate.php

Figure out what you would need if you were called upon to run out the door to help in a crisis, make a plan for it; pet care, childcare, work, etc. What barriers do you have to acting and are any of them things you can change? No one can do all of these things, but most people can do some of them.

Figure out who in your area is already doing the work, and help them do it. If you're new to activism, it's probably not the time to try to reinvent the wheel, it's time to help and learn from the people who have been doing this for years.

Make a go bag. Already done? Offer to help someonemake one. Fascist graffiti in your area? Go cover it up, bring a friend. Find a harm reduction group, get narcan trained. Take a first aid class, a bike repair class, a language class, a self defense class, learn literally any new useful skill.

Join ANY community group you think seems useful. Community garden? Friends of the library? Get in there, build ties, and help shut down fascism as it rises in your area, even if that's just by going "shut up Mark" when some asshole tries to voice their bigotry.

Some things you can do. No one can do all these things, but most people can do at least one: Feed people. There's work for you at Food Not Bombs or whatever you got going on where are. Join a local cop watch, ICE watch, or rapid response group. Who's being targeted in your area? Have their back.

Additional scripts for cis het white men who want to be better allies: “What a weird thing to say” “Do you hear yourself right now?” “You shouldn’t say shit like that to people” “I won’t let you talk to them that way” “That’s a disgusting opinion to have” “Shut the fuck up, dude”

Cis men truly need to understand the power of saying “that’s fucked up bro why would you say that” to another cis man

I used to work for an elected official as the person who answered their emails. I can tell you from personal experience, if even twenty or thirty people all call an official in a day, they start panicking. This stuff does help.

I know you hate this advice. I know you hear it all the time, but for gods sake you need to be calling your congressperson. Now. Today. If you have a GOP representative, you need to call and ask if they approve of stripping congress of its constitutional authority. If they like being powerless.

Some good fucking news in these trying times

Quote is from AOC on instagram

Do not dunk. Do not quote-post. Do not screenshot and repost. They wish to be visibly cruel because it makes them feel big and strong. Block them with the most powerful block button we've had on social media to save yourself the energy, and save others from the garage being spread

Just be prepared. We've all seen that headline going around today that Bluesky is the current #1 app, and X dropped out of the top 25. That means the absolute worst people in the world are going to be coming here trying to turn THIS place into just as much of a shithole. Block them. Don't engage.

I can only recommend to not blindly use blocklists if you care about who you might block. I saw some artists I follow be wrongly put on an A/ artist blocklist, there will always be trolls making these. Check who made it and if you trust them.

Media and digital literacy are key to disrupting disinformation. --clapping back/arguing just helps to amplify bad faith accounts & false material --don't share "funny" disinfo to dunk on it; some will still believe it --BLOCK, REPORT, and tell others to do same *without* sharing disinfo content

It was inevitable, but it’s still good to be aware that this is happening here, now. If you see suspicious account/comment, remember: Don’t engage. Don’t argue. Don’t clap back. Don’t screenshot and share. Just block and move on. today.rtl.lu/news/busines...

white boys three days after downloading duolingo

The famous green owl app Duolingo is going even harder into AI made by stolen content. It's not curated by native speakers so you have no idea if what you're learning is correct. Their algorithm overall tries to hit the happy brain juices instead of helping you learn. So here are some alternatives!

Something we don't talk about often enough in the creation of a "safe space", is that safe spaces aren't conflict free. They are conflict forward, with boundaries that by necessity bar entrance to people who will jeopardize that space. You can't sand the corners off the world, you carve space out.
