Aspiring writer looking to amplify COVID-conscious stories
Hello! I’m in the process of pitching an article about CC folks whose relationships ended due to differences in precautions. Would anyone who has had this experience be willing to be interviewed? You could be anonymous if desired. #covidconscious #covidaware #yallmasking #saltingthevibes #covid19 #maskup
With #hantavirus in five U.S. states and counting, we need to codify people’s right to wear masks to protect themselves from this and other airborne viruses! Please consider taking 2 minutes to mark yourself as a proponent of SB3340, the IL Right to Mask Bill.
As #Hantavirus spreads, we need to enshrine into law people’s right to wear masks and other PPE to protect themselves from airborne viruses! Please mark yourself as a proponent of the bill- you don’t have to be an IL resident to do so!
What article about the social impact of COVID on CC folks should I write next?
#Hantavirus has made the IL Right to Mask Bill (SB3340) all the more urgent as folks seek to protect themselves from multiple concurrent disease outbreaks. Would you take 2 minutes to fill out this witness slip and mark yourself as a proponent of the bill? You can select “Record of Appearance Only” at the bottom to avoid providing testimony #humanrights #mask #N95 #covid19 #AndesVirus
@irene@discuss.systems hope this isn’t AI generated because I like this meme
3-minute advocacy opportunity for abolitionists: Help incarcerated folks in Illinois get parole faster! Sometimes, when people get convictions, they face separation from their families for years. There’s a new bill that aims to create a system for reviewing people for parole so they won't languish in jail for as long. Only 5 hours left to mark yourself as a proponent by creating a witness slip! Due at 5 pm TODAY. You don’t have to be an IL resident to fill out a slip!
AMAZING news from the #abolitionist group Midwest Immigration Bond Fund: thanks to recent changes in the 6th circuit—hundreds of people are newly eligible for bond.
“We have gotten over $200k in requests just since Monday from folks held in Kentucky from all over the midwest, and anticipate many more coming. While we are THRILLED to be able to bond people out, we also need your help to ensure we can meet the need as it rolls in.”

Does anyone in my network have connections with experience launching or working at a worker-owned cooperative?
@00Aaron@social.coop ik you just bought a computer, but for others considering switching Linux mint operating system is pretty easy to use on PC! And then you don’t have to deal with Apple’s planned obsolescence
