      This one is near and dear to my heart as a former Section 8 recipient. It took me over 10 years to get to the top of that waiting list, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without it. Losing their vouchers would be devastating, and we can help!

      Literally sitting in the City Council hearing about eviction prevention paying rents while I’m waiting to speak. If you want to help keep 11 immigrant families in public housing from being imminently evicted, I’m trying to raise $2500 for them 💛

      Watching people finally rethink OpenAI this weekend was a slight morale boost that MAYBE, just maybe, our petty, fickle, short-sighted nature will keep us from going over this "inevitable" cliff.
      
      Takes a lot to get to these points (yowza) but so many 180'd hardddd.
      
      Just maybe.
