I'm glad y'all are inspired by Cory Booker's filibuster! It feels great to finally have an elected official stand against carrying on business as usual.

One clear lesson from the 2024 elections is that we can't throw all our resources in the Electoralism bucket.

So many in our communities right now don't. From asylum seekers to disaster victims to our houseless neighbors to the scientists and government workers who just lost their whole careers.
And buying time means we need to prioritize caring for our communities until all the politicians do their jobs.
We keep us safe.
But really, lookup who's helping out in your local community and chip in to them.
(Also, I don't see any reason to donate to a party rather than to specific candidates; I don't give two craps what direction the DCCC/DSCC thinks the party should go in)
