Our kitchen is real small otherwise (galley style, not much counter space) but the pantry is really great

LOL the Armadillo Homestead <3 Thank you! I am particularly happy with the pantry. We started using those clear tubs/painters' tape labels about 10 years ago basically copying off our friends who had worked in resto kitchens. It's so easy to find stuff!!

Just to be really explicit about what’s happening here, the cover conflates age, physical disability, and cognitive disability, and goes on to conflate disability with unfitness for office. It’s utter bullshit.

i mentioned this before but the last week or two has fully clarified that the rest of our lives is a drag-out fight against the supreme court that starts with priming the public to enthusiastically support — or at the very least resist decorum-based media calls against — completely rebuilding it

It's the best thing I've ever bought. It was supposed to be a pandemic pool but the building materials shortage nixed that, so the company said do you want a hot tub instead since you paid the deposit already. Saved our ass in the freeze, too - endless unfrozen water to use for flushing!!

it was two years having this hot tub before I realized you can just not heat it in the summer and have a chilly, miniature soaking pool instead

Plus, non-electoral organizing makes election stuff a lot easier. It really helps when you have a bunch of existing networks of like-minded people who are motivated to get involved on a bunch of different stuff!

The nice thing about organizing is that it is about more than just elections. E.g. mutual aid in all its forms, and campaigns to contact your electeds to bully, uh, persuade them. I point this out not to downplay elections; it's just that some people are looking for things to do besides voting.
