The anniversary of the inauguration was marked by a government shutdown and a second Women's March.
What else has been happening this week?
Actions
Help get the one more Republican senator needed to restore net neutrality
Help Hope not Hate produce a documentary about the alt-right
Housekeeping (the usual stuff)
Reminder that we now have a Friending Meme and a (locked) post where you can connect with others with live in the same area. We hope you find both of these posts useful!
We also 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.
As we don't always get the time to pull things out of the suggestions post into their own separate posts, it may be worth checking every week (or tracking the post) to see if there's any new information you're interested in.
Also if you need help with tags, PM
redbird, who is our tag guru. Both
tassosss and I are very grateful for the help.
So, what have you all been up to in the last week or are planning to get involved in next week?
