- She/He
Constantly in a juggling act between projects, but MAN am I bad at juggling...
To all my American friends out there:
Did you know Elon's "department of government 'efficiency'" fired thousands of members of the Center for Disease Control?
Did you know they fired thousands of park service employees (the people in charge of protecting our national parks, mayhaps the only land in the US not soiled by capitalism?)
Did you know they fired thousands from the department of agriculture, including those working on the diseases effecting chickens and contributing to the egg shortage?
And thousands more jobs just like this!
If this bothers you, I highly encourage you to try my latest and greatest product: ✨💫Harassing your Government Representatives💫✨
No, but seriously. Not to be a downer by bringing politics into people's feeds, but if any of the shit our new overlords are doing is bothering you, please call this number: (202) 224-3121
It's a national switchboard that will connect you with your local senators or representatives after answering a few questions. And you can leave a message telling them how you feel about these things. I know it doesn't sound like jamming up their phone line will do much, but it genuinely makes a difference. Their careers rely on popularity, so you'll be surprised how quickly they bend to a human voice yelling at them.
If you feel powerless, remember we're not. Call your senators. Call your representatives. Take advantage of your government's checks and balances while it still has them. Please let your voice be heard.
