Good Morning!
I am just checking in - one week until the Postcard Protest! At the moment, I have 25 cards filled out and stamped, and will drop those in the local mailbox for pickup on March 15. I may have another half-dozen or so before the mailing date.
I've spread the word about the protest via Email, here and letters sent via USPS. The response has been overwhelmingly positive.
How are you folks doing? Are you finding that it has it been a cathartic experience writing a salutation on the card? Kinda like screaming, only with a Sharpie?
For me, this has been a good experience (so far). It has been YEARS since I participated in any form of social action. It feels like... an awakening.
I am also not big on Social Media; I was on Twitter for all of a month, but it was just way too toxic. You can read about my thoughts about Meta on why I started this blog in the first place. But with Indivisible, they encouraged me to try out BlueSky. I have to say, I am cautiously, dubiously optimistic about what I am seeing. So far, good dialogs and information. It's still new - we'll see.
I will have limited access this weekend, but please! Post your thoughts on the coming Postcard Protest in the comments! I will get them out there!
Onward!
Rade
