Do you guys remember when these were the only crumbs we had of what #Lucanis sounded like? Now we’re out here telling @willynilly123.bsky.social to “sit down” and giving him heart palpitations. What a long way we’ve come. 🤣

In the 2024 presidential election, nearly 90 million eligible Americans chose not to vote. We should be doing everything we can to engage people and build their faith in this institution that we call American democracy, not adding barriers that make it harder to vote.
