Signal Boost: OTW election reflections

[branchandroot]

starlady has, in addition to writing up her own cogent summaries of why she will be voting the way she will, posted a list of links to other people writing similar reflections.

I strongly encourage anime/manga fans who have any interest in or contact with the OTW to read these, and that goes twice if you're eligible to vote in this election.

You know what really bums me out? That despite having donated, I won't be eligible, because I donated after the 17th. Because I didn't care enough about what was going on with the OTW to donate before the candidates started making their platforms clear via chats and interviews. Meh.

Argh. Yeah, that kind of sucks. *wry* Especially the not caring, because there's so much fuckwittery.

It's really sort of indicative of how deep the problems run: no reason to donate until after it becomes apparent that there's a reason to care, but then it's too late. Bah.
