Okay, I guess since I'm a refugee from #twitter, I'll focus on my Twitter accomplishments first?
Joined twitter as [at] ominousrabbit in 2011-ish.
Came because someone told me I had to; stayed because of the puns.
General of the Feisty Army. Hydrate, dear and fight fascism. I make things for antifascist cats and other creatures.
I played OminousRabbit on the Tweeters as well.
Benjamin Wittes also stopped thinking I was a stalker and asked me to rebrand @lawfare. Those designs are mine!
If you wake up in a potential pre-tyranny landscape and get to create the branding for #lawfare
I feel like you've bowled a strike for democracy.
I've rarely been as proud, and never let it be said that you can't throw yourself at total strangers and effect change.
And kudos to Ben for taking a chance on that total stranger.
I raised a lot! More than I could imagine! It was amazing! And weird! And magical!
Meanwhile over on Instagram I was running a different sort of fundraising campaign: namely creating radical swag for people to wear during Trumpistan. Revolution Art Shop started smol and by the time we shuttered it this year we had 20k+ followers and had raised 35k for all kinds of good causes.
Didn't really use it until 2016, when disaster in the form of Cheetolini struck.
Then I was deep in all the natsec/political/crazy "republic if you can keep it" Russiagate scandals.
All the way in.
Fell in love with a #BabyCannon. Nagged @benjaminwittes about selling Baby Cannon swag (which I had already brainstormed) to raise money for natsec/democratic orgs.
He only briefly discounted me as a crazed lunatic.

It's like the wild west out here. Just liking random people on whims.
