I mean Lemmy is also a bit of a cesspool at times, but it's home now at least.
I heard there used to be raves out there 15 years ago.
CCL is another good one that gets a lot done on not a huge budget. Let's just say the fossil fuel lobbyists are way better funded than us. (Donations here, though donating time arguably helps even more, and CCL will train you how to lobby Congress)

But now you can't receive useful alerts like "gry Toyt" (was a real alert that went out).
Is this due to root rot? Temps? Or something else? Leaves have been curling down due a few weeks, and now they are starting to droop and dieback quickly over the last few days. There is some new growth still though. Do I need to uproot it and check / cut roots?
Yeah not a fan of it for all of the reasons you stated.

WTF, that entire work environment seems so messed up and sexist.
It is good and reasonable to be continually skeptical of the people and organizations we get involved with, and I appreciate your warning and looking out for bad organizations.
On the other hand, my experience in politics leads me to believe that if you sit around waiting for the perfect allies, you will usually be waiting alone for a very long time.
Looking at this group, it looks like in my state (Utah) they have been key support for a couple of well respected local nonprofits that have done great work on RCV and anti gerrymandering. That doesn't sound like such a bad thing to me.
I think it's a mistake generally to view Republicans as the enemy. Even if they are in a leadership role like in the RNC. For example, in Utah, nothing gets done without Republican approval. So saying "I won't work with you because you're Republican" here is a losing strategy to make changes. And we now have the beginnings of progress on RCV.
So I think we should continue to be vigilant and watch out for the first signs that people are acting in bad faith. But if we want our ideas to be popular, we are going to need to learn to (without compromising our own values) build a bigger tent.
