Actionable items: pick one or two and work on offices and events within walking and commuting distance.

When we grow food at home and in neighborhoods, we peel the Profiteers' fingers off our necks.

If we remove prison slavery and replace it with gentle custody, we save ourselves and spite slavers.

If we make hospitable policy for newcomers, we spite racists.

If we fix zoning we spite landlords and fix the invented housing crisis.

If we write or call or visit to our elected reps every day, they won't have time to cheat with lobbiests.

Sociology/communications/history of the internet folks:

I'm looking for articles on millennials and the early social web, focusing on how they (we) adapted to being the first native web generation to use it for that purpose, and how it changed how society approaches communication in general.

I haven't had much luck turning anything up.

Just throwing it out there, but if you ever need help finding resources (books, videos, articles, etc) to help you study social theory, witchcraft, occultism, or folklore (I have diverse interests lol), please feel free to reach out! Depending on how familiar I am with the topic and the source, I might even be able to help answer some questions, if you have them, too! I'm always happy to help folks find what they need to learn!

Nearly three months since graduation, and I've decided to scour through my undergraduate class papers. I'm hoping there's something here that can be turned into something greater.

Many upperclassmen and faculty members have encouraged me to try and explore the world of journals. I'll use my downtime to not just read but also learn about getting published.
