Reminder that we have a suggestion post if there’s a topic that you’d like to see discussed but would like to ask the mods to look into. This can be anything from general information, or a how-to-do-a-thing, or something you may want to discuss as a community. Folks are welcome to post directly to the comm as always, but if you’re not comfortable/don’t have spoons, we can help too.

I just want to say that I am very impressed with James Thompson's campaign for the special election in Kansas. I've donated to a number of these special election campaigns, and his is the first to follow up with me and send regular updates.

I also got a hand-written thank you card in the mail this weekend, despite living outside the state.

So if any of you know anyone in Kansas, especially if they live in the 4th -- let them know that the election is coming up on April 11th!

I have to say I love the Resistbot! It's amazingly easy and it helps me get some courage to call. First I Resistbot about something and then I'm feeling strong and able so I call about something else.

I just wanted to say I really appreciate these weekly roundups, especially the poll. I like being able to click the little ticky box - it makes me feel productive. :)
