"Don't waste any time mourning. Organize!"
-Joe Hill
My brother texted the family group chat this quote before he went to work today. I'm not in a good place this morning, but we can't lose ourselves to despair. I know I have a lot of anger right now, but getting into whose fault that is won't help anyone.
Dwelling on the people I will never forgive won't help anyone.
I'm not that optimistic, but hope is a choice we can still make. It's a hard one to make this morning, but I'm still going to do my best. We are where we are, and focusing on yesterday won't change that. We can only move forward, and save as many as we can along the way.
There will be a tomorrow because we're going to make sure there's a tomorrow.
I love the alt text!
I understand the motovation, but half an hour of discussion is truly a wildly short period of time. And I agree that turning everything into a vote instead of letting the discussion run its course isn’t going to end well.
I actually remember when this was an issue with our con as well.
Although we started emphasis on focus rather than calling for a vote every 30. We’ve had our fair share of meetings get a little too carried away with several discussions (So many times I forget), its just to the point where we’re older, we try to reign it in best we can and make sure to keep focus.
Funny thing is, I was in Sarah’s shoes. But never ever took it that far. Brought it up to my friends outside of meetings and during meetings requested that we try to be a bit more organized when it came to discussions.
You may laugh, but you do enough nudging over a long period of time and it takes seed in people’s mind.
Should Sarah stop trying so hard to just get things done instead of talking it out? Or is the act of endless discussion detrimental to con business? I move that we vote on the topic.
Seconded.
they spent 4 weeks debating changing something no one wanted changed so YEA i’m with her on this
One time on the UW-Madison Student Senate I seconded everything.
