Got back to Burning Man yesterday for another year of work and play with Gate, Perimeter, and Exodus. Now that I’m reacclimatized, I’m ready to step off Bluesky for a minute. Don’t door, reset yourself if you need to in your own way like I’m doing, and then we will fight and we will win!

These people are legit heroes. They gave up their jobs and left their families for this. Critics should STFU and work harder to defeat fascism and punch nazis.
This got the ball moving on multiple Dem states to attempt gerrymanders of their own, they were not ever going to win this fight, the entire point of it was to draw attention and delay to give others time to respond, and it succeeded.
