Sooo yeah, uh hi bluesy. I am here because of, well, probably the same reasons you're here.

Life is hard for everybody, I'm here for your pets (like to see and giggle at), my fellow nerds/geeks of all kinds, and uh books?

I don't expect anyone to care, just wanted a proper intro post out there.

This is not how I'll announce I'm running for an office, buuuut if someone can identify an office I should run for, that'd be great
100000000% THIS

Remember Mitch McConnell's strategy was to use unchallenged seats on school boards, city councils, etc to build a foundation of extreme right-wing power. Progressives need to do the same.

This is why I donate to @runforsomething.net monthly. If you're willing, they'll help you run.
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.
