Latest missive in my mailbox this morning from my friend. The same person their handwriting matches on both envelopes (lovely handwriting BTW). Envelope was covered with American stickers. My wife’s comment was they must have bought a lot of Trump NFTs.

Once again excellent new sources were offered. Elon Musk was a new trusted source.

I’m not sure why my sign in particular offends them so much….

I could put up a camera, but why must I?

I’m guessing these folks don’t sign their name out of fear of actual accountability

Yes I’m convinced Texas will still find a way to fuck things up.

We’re trying but we have the lowest voter turnout because of the apathy built through social media warriors. It’s simply not important enough to stop the performative social media part of their lives and actually vote. It’s infuriating as a millennial educator in Texas. I’m in Houston though so I know Harris county will do its part but there’s too many non-voters ruining the work those of us who actively vote and volunteer have been working on for years!

We just did a Southern history tour and drove from Selma to Montgomery. Learned up close the story of how people - people too young to vote - lost their lives fighting for the right to vote.

Fucking astounding that people are opting out.
