ago and hate watching the ineveitable power struggles as well as the way women are just handed out tasks by the dudes, who all seemed to think managing passing work to women counted as enough work, LOL. My local politics is Dem and sectors are too mobbed up to want to be super visible locally anyway.

There is one in SF this weekend but it might be too much for my autistic son, I don't want him to see the hate so I will pass. Have donated money to planned parenthood and to a group helping people vote.
