perpetually running 6 hours behind
i am about to pass out, seriously. and i promised myself i would make an endorsement post. i am really really not going to make any real sense tonight, though, so it's going to have to wait until tomorrow. it's a 48 hour voting period! there's time!
i actually don't know who i'm voting for, anyway. :p well, i sort of do. i'm definitely going to vote for jenny scott-thompson, who i think has a real drive to make things right, and welcoming, and accessible; nikisha sanders, who (despite the characterizations) goes out of her way to listen to people and ask them what they need, want, and hope for the org, and knows how we can get there; and julia beck, who is my oldest non-webmaster friend in the otw, and is committed to diversity and all the myriad voices who wish to speak.
i just don't know if i'll rank anyone beyond those three. i need to re-read and do a bit more research before i decide if i want to add betsy rosenblatt to the mix. i am completely unfamiliar with her; i have never worked with her, and i don't know anyone who has worked with her who i can ask (who isn't attached to the legal committee). i am cautiously optimistic, but despite, you know, transcribing all the damn chats, i haven't had time to read them in a thinky way. er, except for the bits that made me go 0_o, which i think weren't her? but obviously, i need to actually check.
okay, seriously, my eyes won't stay open.
(ps okay, so usually i know who i'm voting for well ahead of time? so this is weird? in govt elections i vote for two, because mattcallow isn't eligible to vote in those, and that means i have extra responsibility to spend my votes wisely or whatever. but not this time. also, last night he said "hmmmm. maybe you should just cast my vote for me." (yeah, he's a member. after saying our household already donated enough of my time or something, then he joined anyway.) anyway, i was all "OMGWTFBBQ NO NO THAT IS WRONG AND BAD IT'S YOUR VOTE DON'T USE IT IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BUT HOW COULD YOU EVEN SUGGEST THAT I WANT A DIVORCE. AND ALSO NEVER SAY THAT AGAIN." anyway i don't remember what happened after that. yesterday? what is yesterday? what is time.)(wow that anecdote was less pointless when i was thinking of including it in this post sixteen hours ago. maybe there was a punchline? idk.)
