Some of the very best people I know have created a camp - it’s a retreat for those of us who do social justice work. Camp Ground is about rest: no work allowed.

If you organize, advocate, etc in ANY capacity (professionally, as a volunteer, in your spare time) this camp is probably for you.

Had the absolute privilege of joining Justice By Design this week to talk SCOTUS, Skrmetti, and sorry-you-can’t-actually-legislate-trans-people-out-of-existence. Thank you to the brilliant @kimberlyeatkins.bsky.social for thinking I’m cool enough to hang out with her. youtu.be/edZ7-XTsJzs?...

It only took me 4 years, but I've officially joined the 21st century/Bluesky. Hello, less-cruel world.
