Yes, itâs only July and many primaries are not yet over but if my tiny town has already started weekend door-knocking then itâs likely that somewhere near you is a chance to go online and find your own opportunity to walk around sweating and talking to voters here.

As the great poet and prophet Bruce Springsteen once said, âdonât waste your summer praying in vain for a savior to rise from these streets.â
As the failed prophetess and former poetry major, tumblr user larkandkatydid once said in 2024, I shall not be sharing my rations in the gulag or the Buttigieg militia with those of you who stuck to posting takes instead of taking real world action. But I shall feel bad about that! So donât put me in that position!
If you're in MA or RI and unable to travel outside our Elite Coastal Bubble there's a great campaign to volunteer for locally.
Massachusetts has a lovely, squeaky clean progressive running in our September 1st primary to take down one of the most corrupt Democrats in the House. The district, MA-04, goes from Needham, Newton and Brookline all the way down to Fall River and the Rhode Island border.
I can't overstate the amount, the sheer⌠my, um, chaste, respectful desire for Jason Poulos to succeed in taking down Jake Auchincloss. I can't emphasize enough that someone this good, this smart, this conscientious almost never runs for Congress. And despite that the odds are stacked against Poulos's campaignâJake "Extremely Racist" Auchincloss is sitting on a $7,000,000 war chest (yes, in a safe Democratic district! due to a reason [man's a corporately, lobby-ly beloved icon of pay-to-play]), there's hope.
And you can make it even hopier. VOLUNTEER FOR JASON'S CAMPAIGN! Are you disappointed in Democrats in general? In purportedly progressive Democrats in particular? He's your man.
Poulos for Massachusetts - Jason Poulos for Congress. Fighting for workers, Medicare-for-All, Universal Basic Income, and a more just future
