Yes, unclear if we need that fork anymore, sorry.

GitHub - openstates/people: Curated information on all state legislators & governors. Curated information on all state legislators & governors. - openstates/people

Ah, we should do something about that. We source directly from OpenStates via their API, which is fed by this repo. Their data is sometimes collected via automation so if it's a categorical error, that might need fixing. We do submit small fixes occasionally though. github.com/openstates/p...

Which repo are you looking at? Will point you to a solution once we're talking the same things!

Hi folks I am currently out on SMS, and earlier today Apple Messages was offline for a few hours. In short, I’m seeing traffic in a month that matched my traffic from 2024, and the usage is pushing us up against billing thresholds for various services we need.

The Gender War Is A Forever War, Continued Are you now and were you ever

What Trump/Musk are up to is certainly and squarely targeted at trans people, but the paranoia and inquisitions they demand will hardly stop at us. I wrote about their anti-gender panic and its similarities to the Lavender Scare, a previous purge of thousands queer people from the federal government

Let's see if there's a way to contact the new administration. Sigh.

🚨 THREAD: Trump’s mass deportation plan is more than cruel—it’s a disaster waiting to happen.

It would devastate our economy, tear families apart, and harm every single American.

This petition opposing this nightmare already has 1,130+ signatures. Let’s get it to 2,000!

This is now at 150!!!! It’s full ❤️❤️I’ll make another starter pack when there’s 7 people to add (to start off one, looks like 7-8 minimum required)

Trump expected to select Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead HHS The choice will roil many public health experts after his years of touting debunked claims that vaccines cause autism.

Stock up on n95s and make sure all your vaccines are up to date.

I am dead serious.

Fun fact about me: back in 2016 after RBG died, you might remember texting RBG to a 5 digit number. That was through Resistbot, and I started that petition that ended up with over a million signers. It is the easiest way to contact your elected representatives to tell them how you feel.

Thanks everyone for the outpouring of messages to your elected officials today, and this week! We have to do some live maintenance for a bit though to keep the servers going. If it seems like we've disappeared for a moment, not to worry - we'll be back!

If a white child has reproductive freedom, career freedom and their gender identity is respected, they might:
* choose to partner with a non-white person
* choose not to be a mom
* discover their gender identity, and live as their true self

So racists don't want kids to have any of those choices.

There's a resistbot letter for anyone who doesn't know what to say. I didn't write it, just sharing! bsky.app/profile/adig...
