So, WFM guy here, I crunch call center numbers all day and advise management on performance and staffing requirements. Here are some concrete goals to keep in mind with any sort of calling campaign: 🧵

If you haven't already been, get connected with your local mutual aid groups, local political organizing groups like WFP or PSL or DSA, talk to your neighbors. We're going to need to protect each other, it's only going to keep getting worse.

i feel like i'm gonna be saying this a lot on the book tour, but for any critics who've already read NOCK LOOSE: the 'moral' of the story is that violent resistance against oppressors and oppressive systems isn't only justified, it is necessary -- and cool!

NEXT WEEK: The first rule is Emma and I don't talk about it. The second rule is Emma and I don't talk about it. Come listen to us totally not talk about Fight Club and we'll see if the book or the movie end up beating the shit out of each other over on the podcast Unnatural Selection!

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense
