I’ll be getting my AARP card in less then 3 Presidential elections and have never been represented at the Federal level by anyone my age- the closest was 15 years older than me, and never once by someone of my own gender.
In case it hasn’t been made clear yet by the 78 year old that is about to decide the entire future of our generation-
The “adults” in power are never going to give a fuck about young people until we force them to by voting & running against them to be the actual adults we need
@craighallam84 Something that is shorter - I can only read for about 1/2 an hour-45 min live without losing my voice. Prefer story over poetry, but it’s really also your call as to what you’d like people right now to hear in a Scots voice :) And thank you. Sincerely.
@senrobportman I am a liberal priority. I’m self-employed, dependent on the ACA, and am tired of your corporate attitude. I wish you would quit trying to sell your bill as what it is is unhelpful in every way to people like me. Small business & self-employed account for 49% of jobs. Do better.
@diabolicalplots saw your offer to Levar. I’m a glass artist, my Ren friends & I hit hard by show closures. Would you grant permission (and access) to a short story to be read aloud on my FB live? It’s decidedly commercial :/ as I intro w/ how to access my Patreon & your works.
@GreaseArt @levarburton Deanna- I’ve run into same issue as Levar. I’ve fb live’d public domain books, would advertise your kid book if I had permission to read it aloud as a way to also encourage people to support my “shows-got-cancelled tribe” right now... We all do Ren Faires. We’re kinda screwed.
@neilhimself I’m a glass artist who’s seeing both mine & my artist friends’ careers hurt by this. Would you permit me to read aloud your story “Nicholas Was” on FB live as both a way to plug a story I ♥️, but also to plug & to help raise $ for my friends & myself right now?
@StephenKing Sir- I’m a glass artist. My artist friends (and my own) livelihoods are deeply hurt by this. May I have your permission to read aloud “Strawberry Spring” from Night Shift on FB live as a way to plug both a book I ❤️, my own art, as well as raise $ for my friends?
<3 to hear ideas on #weirdstreamathon from @patreon for "stuff" artists. I sell my stuff at festivals, all cancelled, and galleries... all closed right now. I thought I *was* diversified... but all avenues are closed. Asking for my friends too, cause we're all in this together.
Happy Super Tuesday! If you're still making up your mind, check out the Indivisible Scorecard. Note that Biden is the only candidate past or present to repeatedly refuse to answer our questionnaire. https://t.co/JNuvGaZKch
@DNC HEY... borderline Millenial/GenX here. Just wanted to make sure you knew the best way to hand Herr Gropenführer another 4 yrs in office is to nominate a centrist old white dude. Choose wisely please. I mean, you remember 2016, right?
Hey. You. Yeah. YOU. Phone a friend, or, better yet, hug one today ok? (Several folks in my tribe need huge hugs today and I can't give them one in person.)
