It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

A statistic came out that dystopian book sales are up. And lots of people seem confused bc WHY read something so stressful now of all times. But the reason is probably the same reason women listen to/watch so much true crime. We need to FACE the thing that makes us anxious and prepare ourselves

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

How I feel about releasing WISH UPON A K-STAR 3 years after ONCE UPON A K-PROM. Like, girl, I came up with this idea in 2022...how am I supposed to remember what I wrote?!? #WishUponAKStar #authorproblems #booksky

I know it's hard to write when the fear of book bans & soft censorship looms over all BIPOC & LGBTQ writers. Especially middle grade authors who can't get into schools to promote their books anymore. Book bans are doing exactly what they want-stopping us from writing. DON'T LET THEM! KEEP WRITING!

All, I just saw someone post to bring up one topic per call for staffers. Here's why I've consistently said it's not a good idea based on experience as a constituent affairs director (current staffers, feel free to correct me...! ): If you call too much, you start developing a rep in the office.

Yeah, reminder, you need to register as a Democrat by LATEST February 14. If you're registering (or switching parties) online, you have to do this by February 13. And you can ONLY vote in the Primary if you're a Democrat. Please do. We need to primary Adams, and we need all hands on deck to do so.

For those who have phone anxiety, most senators and reps have a way to email them. I used the contact portal for my senators and just typed out Celeste's script with small adjustments since it was a written contact not a spoken. -->All I had to do was google "NY Senator Contact Page"

Okay, so joy as resistance has been completely removed from its original context, and that’s why what you know of now doesn’t really work. In the Roaring 20s, during the Harlem Renaissance, Zora Neale Hurston found herself at odds not only with conservative whites but also neo-abolitionists
