Friday, January 30th Game Santa Cruz will be closed in support of the nationwide general strike. As a small business, we can't afford to be closed. Financially this is very scary. But so is the reality of what's happening.
Solidarity forever with our friends, families, and community.

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.
As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.
ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

Our warehousing & fulfillment is based in Minnesota. The company is closed today (their employees are getting paid). We fully support them in their struggle against federal occupation of the state.
If you are not in MN, here's a link to some ways you can stand up and take action.

Do you know what MIC stands for? No? You should!
Machine Identification Code
MICs enable tracking a printed piece of paper back to the printer. So - you print something at home and it ends up in the streets at say... a protest. Forensically it can be traced back to your printer and you.

RUNE is so great that when I was playing Hollow Knight, I went "You know what would do this well? RUNE." and so I made a hack inspired heavily by this awesome game. Definitely check it out, because #SHELL-ttrpg is going to have compatibility rules for playing in RUNE Realms.

Reminder to research Shopify's CEO Tobias Lütke.

It's dismaying to me to see how many folks use the platform or advertise it on their podcast etc.
That purple "Shop" button? Each purchase supports his anti-union, anti-diversity, and anti-human rights efforts.

I'm boosting myself to say this:
You're going to see people On Here tell you calling electeds doesn't matter. That's not true.
Some are bots. Some are people who like being contrary to be edgy.
But calling moves the needle, especially against a blatantly illegal act by Trump and Co. ACT.

Candid answer - as someone who handled constituent affairs calls for years - while they’re not checking the phone right now, the urgency of the moment is important.
Show them you care enough to make the weekend call, and be counted that way. Staffers will clock and report this upstream.

Is there actually a benefit to leaving a VM now vs getting a staffer on Monday? Can do both but just curious

Angry? Do something about it. Find & gather into a group of other angry people with the aim to collectively do something about it. Read some literature on What Is To Be Done & arm that anger with knowledge. Remain angry, but don't remain unmoved.
