Per last repost, I do think that in the US a lot of people, like a LOT of people, do not realize that if a birth certificate is no longer proof of citizenship then most of us have no proof of citizenship. At all.

This is Penny. She came up with her own trick. Really hopes you like it, and will repeat it as many times as necessary until you acknowledge that you do. 14/10 (IG: pennycorgipoo)

Anyway it's definitely probably not about me because I've never been to a democratic event and I fundraise for organizations I trust to help people on the ground. The fact that I don't consider the DNC part of that does feel like a THEM problem, though.

I'm part of this round table about positivity and negativity in SFF criticism!
