    I mean, in the last few months I carpet bombed an executive team with a well-written email and got a response within two days. If I can get the attention of some money-grubbin, tax dodging, narcissistic, wannabe dictator types to give a shit, I am sure we can collectively manage something.

      That’s cool, man. I do write my senators. I was writing them pretty much every other week from 2020-2022. I wrote them extensively when trump needed to be impeached. But I haven’t received anything back other than an auto-response. I shouldn’t be negative about it, nor discourage other people from writing to their representatives. Please do write them, and continue writing them. I’m just personally a little jaded after the last 8 years of political fuckery.

        I won’t ever ask you to not be jaded. In fact, I heavily recommend being wholly pissed. Only just that…the basics should continue. We should write those letters and vote. We should also be doing much more.

        So in a way I’m right there with you.

        Of course they auto-respond. Do you think a senator has the time to write back to everybody who writes to them? That doesn’t mean that they aren’t paying attention.
