Friendly reminder that Congress had enough phone calls coming in last February that it was actively causing the phone system to crash and they had to progressively work to upgrade it over several nights to ensure it could handle the call volume.
If enough people call, it disrupts the system.

I'm seeing a lot of posts to call your reps but little on actually how. 5calls.org is a great site where you can put in your zip code and get numbers for your house representative and two senators. You also can get a script if you're like me and stumble over your thoughts.
5 Calls
Spend 5 minutes. Make 5 calls. Make your voice heard.

![A Canva-mocked up call script re: calling electeds Trump Administration's actions in Venezuela
YOU: Hi, my name is [NAME]. I’m calling from [ZIP CODE].
YOU: I’m calling [MOC] to demand they condemn the U.S.’s actions in Venezuela tonight. The Trump administration has carried out an illegal attack and capture of Maduro that is a clear violation of international sovereignty and will impact relationships will alienate international allies, and [ELECTED] must speak out about this.
YOU: I am also calling on [MOC] to:
1. Speak plainly about this to their constituents. They can acknowledge the Maduro regime’s abuses AND recognize this as an unlawful extraterritorial detention,
2. Demand a legal written justification from the Administration,
3. Hold IMMEDIATE House/Senate Foreign Affairs hearings on the the decision-making, legality, and diplomatic risks of the Maduro operation,
4. Demand an immediate classified briefing for the Gang of Eight.
YOU: What happened tonight will have ramifications across the world in the days, weeks and months to come, and we need answers and action taken.
YOU: [OPTIONAL COMMENTS - DEMAND A RESPONSE]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vdabazxnghujbebpi2ektqgi/bafkreiekz6akttflsgwcc74eyuq6m6e2lrbgxzouhdmvi5lds4qm6x4fou@jpeg)

You can find your US reps and senators here: reps.fyi
If you call now, you'll get an answering machine and you can leave a message. A great thing to do if you're nervous about talking to someone. Just give your name, your zip code, and demand they impeach Trump for illegally invading Venezuela.

I really hope the momentum i had to work on stuff back in october comes back now that the holidays are over. I always have a hard time in winter, this year might be more trying, but i'm hopeful that i'll be able to pull a few things out.

Saw that Games Workshop is hiring illustrators, and I'd apply to the position but it sounds like they want someone in England.
Might still apply anyway. Could be fun to officially draw space marines even though my work isn't exactly in G-Dub's wheelhouse.

ARTISTS ARE ESSENTIAL WORKERS. IF YOU DOUBT THAT, TRY GOING WITHOUT BOOKS, ART, MUSIC, TV, MOVIES, OR ANY OF THE THINGS THAT SHAPE HOW WE COMMUNICATE, RELAX, AND UNDERSTAND THE WORLD. ALL OF WHICH EXIST ONLY BECAUSE OF CREATIVE CRAFTSPERSONSHIP.
LET US BEGIN THE AIRING OF GRIEVANCES. HAPPY FESTIVUS TO ALL!

We spoke to a dozen professional concept artists who are currently or have previously worked in game development about whether generative AI image tools have made their jobs any easier.
Zero said it did. Most said it made things harder.

Concept Artists Say Generative AI References Only Make Their Jobs Harder
“The ‘early ideation stages’, when worlds are being fleshed out by writers and artists, are literally crucial to the development of a game’s vision,” said one artist.
