Came here to say this as well.

Take care of yourself! No need to apologize.

Thank you, Marisa. I am not a New Yorker, but I stand with you. I read your piece (and all your work) with reverence and respect. You have a way of articulating the core truth of a matter that most do not. We need your voice.

I just finished Woodworking. Wow. I started following you here when I saw that you write for Yellowjackets (which I love) and I'm so glad I did because it gave me this gift. This story was beautiful, sad, hopeful and so so human. I plan to ensure everyone I know reads it. Thank you for writing it

Spot on.

Thank you @booker.senate.gov!

Exactly

This

His staffers dis not confirm this on the phone just a few mins ago...

Thank you! This is the leadership we want to see.

Yes

@schumer.senate.gov you're wrong.

This MI Saves is different than the 529!

It's true that the two are connected, but Title I funds do not pay for these meals. The data collected to substantiate Title I eligibility is also the same data that is used for school meals. Either individual or community based eligibility.

Not the point, but fwiw the USDA administers school meal and after-school snack programs. Not the department of education.

This.

When you say "through" do you see an end? Actually curious how you are processing the "what's to come" and what your experience tells you.

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social get in touch with @chenoweth.bsky.social. she is an expert on the movement building you're talking about. She runs the Nonviolent Lab at Harvard and studies how to use civil resistance to bring down autocracies.

I was a PMF. It mattered.

How will the regime fall?

Yes. Please keep the messaging clear and full of this reality!

You are wrong here. We are too late for civil. We need strong moral and ethical discourse. We are dealing with the total breakdown of belief in basic human virtue as we know it. Civil discourse is a trap when faced with christofascism.

Also, thank you for trying!

I just saw it. She said that high call volumes may not outright change Republicans' minds (duh) but that the tide is turned when they see how serious and mobilized the pressure is. Rs call more than Ds so it means something when Ds mobilize like this. Keep going!

What did AOC say?

I am just a random person with no tech knowledge who happened upon your work the first day i joined blusky. Thank you for what you're doing and for your bravery. It matters so much and this post is spot on.

But the rule of law doesn't matter if only one side believes it. What happens to our country in the coming weeks depends on people like you, w/networks and knowledge of the inner workings, to be organizing in a new way that matches the nature of the problem. We need you to think bigger. Please.
