My attitude on this is that I'm not calling them because I think I can change their minds. I'm calling them because it is unthinkable to let them do this without hearing how evil and awful they are. My spite powers me. If I can get just 500 people a day to join me, we could fuck up their day.

I call Tommy Tuberville every fucking week, multiple times a week, because he can be evil but I don't have to let him do it without pushback. So I don't need to hear excuses. I call the dumbest senator in the country. 😂

I would also like to point out my messages to Tuberville are just ridiculous. I just ended this one "Anyway, please mark me down as hating all of this and wishing you had a spine. Thanks!"

I don't read the scripts because I'm not calling to convince them, and also I'm terrified of phones and vaguely queasy when I have to make phone calls anyway. I just call before I can stop myself and blurt out my strong objections in whatever words fall from my mouth. It can be that easy!

I am blocking people who reply to argue about making calls pretty liberally. I block liberally in general. Not because I think people who disagree with me are wrong, but because fighting with strangers about what they should be doing on the internet is not my path. bsky.app/profile/most...

I will admit that I have reached a point where I'm blocking anyone who is even mildly annoying to me re: politics. Not because they're bad, or they shouldn't be doing what they're doing (god knows plenty of productive things annoy me for various reasons) but b/c we're on different paths & that's ok!

Someone replied to me explaining to me across multiple posts that making calls was wasting time I should have been using to do direct action. 1) hilarious you think I can't do both 2) my call took less time than your posts. go do direct action instead? Anyway. Be chill. Or be gone.

Every one of my calls to Ogles ends with telling him he was not elected to be some rollover beta cuck, because that is the language that ambulatory bag of farts uses. Calling red reps can be very cathartic!
