Sorry for going dark fora bit; I've been low on energy and a bit burned out. Lots to catch up on. In the meantime, y'all should be following this thread:

This. If you feel the need to post photos are videos, blur all of the faces.
If you go to a protest, don’t post pictures that show people’s faces.

This is not a suprise. This was well known. This is a call to boycott. #austin has a special job to make sure the June launch is a flop.
Bus ads, protest parties, billboards, the works! Not safe!

More than 900 people gathered Saturday morning in Lexington for what was billed as a People’s Town Hall.
Speakers addressed an empty chair on stage next to a sign that said “Reserved for Congressman Andy Barr.”

So, how should theblop handle cancellations? With Schumer postponing his book tour, I marked all those protests as "CANCELLED?: "
Didn't want to just disappear them, but idk if the prefix was the right thing either. Did anyone go to one tonight? How many folks showed up?

To the "not enough protesters" folks:
1. Protests occur simultaneously across our large and sparse nation. It all adds up
2. The US's largest protests haven't exceeded 500k people maybe ever
3. Even 10k+ people requires MONTHS of planning & logistics
It's happening. Slow your roll
