#DoOneThing $: spend money at the farmer's market time: excuse yourself from something you don't want to do. prep: expand your comfort zone by doing something that pushes your boundaries a little. Get comfortable with bucking social censure; fascists use it to keep you in line. #ThreeThings

#DoOneThing today

$: spend money at the farmer's market today

time: excuse yourself from something you don't want to do. If you can say no entirely, do that. If it has to be done, pick a time and plan a reward afterwards.

prep: expand your comfort zone by doing something that makes you uncomfortable. Pick something that pushes *your* boundaries just a little. Get comfortable with bucking social censure, because fascists use it to keep you in line.

#DoOneThing $: donate to Tuesday's Promise www.tuesdayspromise.org time: watch "American Jedi: the Salman Hamdani Story" on YouTube (38 min). It's a balanced documentary about a Muslim American hero who became an FBI suspect prep: take the next step for emergency preparedness plan. #ThreeThings

#DoOneThing to make the memory of those who died on 9/11 a blessing

$: donate to Tuesday's Promise, formerly Tuesday's Children, to support the families of those affected by 9/11 https://www.tuesdayspromise.org

time: watch "American Jedi: the Salman Hamdani Story" on YouTube (38 min). If you're too young to remember 9/11 it will help you understand. If you're older and idealizing post 9/11 solidarity, it's an important counterpoint as Islamophobia rises again. Salman was a patriotic Muslim American who died saving lives, then was investigated as a suspect by the FBI for months.

#DoOneThing $: #DoOneThing $: Buy tickets to local arts. time: Democracy is an average of who shows up. Join @fieldteam6.org for proven results, or @seedthevote.bsky.social to build power that lasts. prep: missing protest energy? Get out there with a costume and election info! #ThreeThings

#DoOneThing before the weekend ends

$: Buy tickets to local art, music, theater...treat a friend if you can! Artists fuel the resistance, and joy is essential.

time: Democracy is an average of who shows up. Most years more people sit out than vote for either party. Help change that. We recommend FieldTeam6.org if you're all about elections. They have a proven track record of flipping close elections. Or consider SeedTheVote.org whose organizing model is designed build power that outlasts the election, win or lose.

prep: missing protest energy? All the big organizers are focused on the midterms, but you could create a character and advertise electoral deadlines. Or promote an obscure local race that matters to you. People forget those -- give them some attention!

time: if you're still floundering, or you've lost steam, it might be time to evaluate your "lane" as an activist. This involves 1) what you'll work on and 2) how you'll tackle it. For example "voter registration by door knocking" or "mutual aid through organizing" Start by identifying your values. https://simpleresistance.us/find-your-lane/

#DoOneThing $: find local or specialty thrift stores and donate things you don't use time: check your voter registration @votedotorg.bsky.social prep: our temporary budget ends DEC11. Our new Congress will be seated JAN03. Complete federal tasks now, in case of gridlock/shutdown. #ThreeThings

#DoOneThing if you haven't lately

$: research better resale/thrift store options and donate anything you aren't using. https://simpleresistance.us/thrift-better/

time: check your voter registration at vote.org The administration is engaged in purges and other suppression, so don't assume you're in good standing even if you voted recently.

prep: Congress pushed the budget battle until after the midterms with (another!) continuing resolution. This next round, on DEC11, may be contentious. Many elements of the "Big Beautiful Bill" kick in *after* midterms and while we hope Democrats will have won, they won't get seated until January. Odds of a shutdown through year-end seem pretty high, so take care of any federal business NOW. From passport renewal to end of year tax paperwork...do it early if you can.

#DoOneThing

time: Democrats in Congress are collecting reports of ICE abuses. If they win control of both houses in the midterms, they plan to hold Oversight hearings into the agency, so report cases you have knowledge of. https://oversightdemocrats.house.gov/immigration-dashboard

prep: fascism wants you to conform, so don't! Do something that makes you a little uncomfortable. Dress in full clown regalia to pick up milk, or wear mis-matched socks—it's all about stretching your own comfort zone a bit.
