If you know of organizations in need of support right now — eg develop messaging to reach those who need services or use technology platforms to clarify or share information — let us know. We're fired up and ready to volunteer the skills we have to lend a hand.

This is so true 😩 Have you seen examples of tone/writing guides that actually get referenced by those you want to use them the most? Maybe a different format altogether?

I'm going to be spending the spring in Munich this year 🌷. Any recommendations — things to do/see? people to meet up with? epic playgrounds to check out?

A painfully accurate description of how it feels to navigate gov services. It's hard to imagine the frictions and confidence required to complete a form, application, etc — when each step feels like you're doing something wrong — *doesn't* result in rationing.

"I just really want this to work out I keep feeling like an idiot trying to do this application process. I'm a really prepared person and I usually feel comfortable around a computer. I just feel like I'm missing something in this process."

One day I want to put together a course on dark arts in Civic Tech. It’ll cover all the reductive norms in government/public interest positions that you can use to prevent disasters or push your ideas forward.
