I have mirin and a bamboo mat and nori and a fierce desire to start making my own sushi. Unfortunately I do not have the knowledge to make my own sushi. I'm sure the internet does, though. And books. Books are useful. If anyone wants to rec a title or a website that would be lovely, otherwise I will trundle over to either the library or the bookstore and occupy a bench for a short while. Or I might actually attempt to read that Japanese cookbook I have. It's in German.

Go on, picture the catastrophe that could ensue. I'll wait. And giggle.

Oof. Pleased, rather, that I've got help on the link roundups, although I could use one or two more hardy souls. I'm really disappointed in, oh, everyone. This isn't the country I signed up for. On the plus side, we're slowly becoming a decently organized team as far as getting information goes. On the other hand, if we were to add budget fuckery in general and How The Middle Class Is Getting Screwed to the list, we'd need at least double the news crew. And possibly a dedicated journal. The idea is actually kind of appealing in that I should never ever do this way.

I could also use another filthy assistant at least. The procedure is pretty simple and right now it's me, Anna, and two others. Spend about 30 minutes on this in a 24 hour period, much more and we might all go nuts. Take three states from the unclaimed list (it's in the gdoc). Collect somewhere between 2-4 links, toss them into the g-doc in their state, alphabetized, and add a 1-3 sentence summary. What kind of summary? Think, the opening paragraph of a news article. Action taken, agent of action, recipient of action, location. And then you're done. I'll be collecting it all and posting it around 10pm EST when it looks like it's gotten big enough, and aiming for 3x per week. It may end up being more depending on how much fuckery is going on. We're aiming for collective bargaining rights fuckery, although we'll accept turning a state into a dictatorship fuckery. Michigan, I'm looking at you. You can PM me or poke me via comment or email if you have my email (or the LJ email works too), or talk to [personal profile] lireavue.

Also, I'm Yelena. This pleases me. Even if I did sleep with Spider Jerusalem.
