HUGE NEWS!!!!

A new poll has me within single digits of leading in my race, ahead of FIVE other career politicians. This is incredible!

I was a "long shot" in March. Now we’re proving that grassroots campaigns can be viable and win — but I can’t do it without your help.
NEW POLL SHOWS KAT WITHIN SINGLE DIGITS OF FIRST PLACE WITH THE MOST ROOM TO GROW HER SUPPORT! Daniel Biss: 17% Kat Abughazaleh: 10% Laura Fine: 8% Mike Simmons: 4% Ram Villavalam: 3% Hoan Huynh: 3% Others: 2% Undecided: 53% WE HAVE THE MOMENTUM! A new polls shows Kat gaining ground in this race, ahead of FIVE career politicians — despite this being her first time running for office!

I am a human being with over 200 videos on my channel teaching Japanese from beginner level to advanced.

Styles range from textbook-style grammar breakdowns to teaching Japanese through anime, songs, and guided manga and light novel translation.

Just sayin'.

If you take anything away from my post, I hope it's this:
I will scream this until my lungs collapse: Trans people aren’t the problem. Immigrants and refugees aren’t the problem. Progressives aren’t the problem. The problem is that the majority of Americans can’t afford a $1000 emergency expense. The problem is that most of our paycheck goes to rent and if we have appendicitis, we call an Uber instead of an ambulance. The problem is that we have leaders who see us, the voters, as abstract concepts and not as individuals with our own lives, families, traumas, passions, and priorities. We are all somebody’s child but when representatives forget that, when they start to only view their district from the window of their Capitol office, we become ants. Our votes become numbers in a game. And our struggles become hindrances to our representative’s job security. Removal from reality is most often an accident. It’s just a common side effect of our political culture. Congress should be a job like any other, but the pomp and circumstance gives our elected officials an excuse to detach. The ones who haven’t fallen into that trap have only managed to do so through purposeful planning and frequent trips home. They treat empathy like a muscle, flexing it as often as possible to ward off apathy. But this should be the norm, not the exception. If not for moral reasons, then for strategic ones.

Here is her GoFundMe. She has not even cracked &2500 yet, not even enough to get one child over the crossing into Egypt. Her goal is $50,000, which seems daunting, but others have managed to raise even more and I'm hoping you'll see her as worthy of that miracle.

Suicide Prevention is a very important cause to me and based on multiple skeets on my skyline:

📞 988 - National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (has text chat, too)

🏳️‍⚧️ Trans Lifeline - 877-565-8860

🏳️‍🌈 Trevor Project - 866-488-7386

Or if you are in immediate danger go to the closest emergency room.
