Let's Do This

Welp, we're turning the electricity back on in Salon Sassy.  As you may recall, this blog was started in 2008 so that me and my friends had a place to pour out all of our excitement and anxiety around the Obama v McCain presidential election.  Remember the halcyon days of mocking silly Sarah Palin? The excruciating joy that was election night in Grant Park?  The last 8 years have been great fun and we have seen America expand in such beautiful ways: gay marriage, universal health care, two women added to the supreme court, the Paris agreement, and Hamilton!

Unfortunately, the times have changed and this blog is now meant to serve a much different purpose. We will be meeting here to transmute our anger and fear into action and change and love and peace, in particular to be allies for those most vulnerable to what is coming, to what is already here.

Roll up your sleeves, folks. Post volunteer opportunities, share organizations that need donations, analyze smart reporting on our new world, and bring your own new and crazy ideas and insights and inspiration.

I'll meet you in the arena.
