I pay my dues for the DSA, have done the occasional protest, and have done some mutual aid a while back.
A lot of days I think I would like too or should do more but there's just never enough hours in the day and I do still need some me time between work and parenting.
If it’s a struggle to get out to do something, 5-10 minutes of textbanking or data entry are very helpful roles for a lot of chapters, especially during election seasons but also just for petitioning for priority campaigns. Just something to consider if you ever have downtime.
My mistake was saying yes to too many irl things and now I’m constantly getting texts about shifts and I panic, but this is much more manageable and still helpful for the cause.
