i really cannot express how little real activism looks like people's stereotypes of activism. i need help with a ton of things and none of it involves being out on the street marching and/or risking arrest, knocking on people's doors, donating money, and arguing on social media
there was one (1) very specific banner-making request that went unfulfilled this week for lack of capacity (RIP the "free portland free dc" sign for the spirit-thorns home opener tonight) but that's it for standard activism tasks
key activist skills i need: project management skills, ability and willingness to show up to places on time and with things you promised to show up with, artistic abilities, event planning abilities, training and mentorship abilities

@shauna Around here the joke is that 75% of activism is just trying to find someone to give a ride to all of the activists who don't own cars 🙃

lmao so true. i have encylopedic knowledge of which of my local activist friends own cars and who doesn't and whenever someone asks me if i need a ride i'm always asking "hey can you bring T and S and Z too" because they're neighbors of mine I know also don't drive

@stefano If you want to force yourself to go to bed at a certain time, just install a physical button on your nightstand so the house’s main power doesn’t shut off 😆

@justine @stefano that has been me since forever.
My mother would be out with me as a baby in a stroller wandering around the neighbourhood past midnight because I was too bored to sleep and needed mental stimulation

@stefano you need to eat more for dessert then. If you're not in a food coma you're not even trying :P

I've seen me go to bed and try sleeping then my head starts chirping "What if you tried this? You know it might just work." and I then have to get up and try before I forget. 🤣

@stefano I have got the impression that especially when doing stuff with FreeBSD, it’s like go other people working on a model railway. It’s very time consuming, not always really productive and most people don’t understand why you invest so much lifetime in stuff that at the first glance has no deeper sense.
