The forecast for tomorrow night, a slight chance of thunderstorms.
There’s been a bit of worry in our group lately. Consensus-building is hard. Activism is hard. Doing this without support is very hard. People disagree. Strongly. Everything is a test. What are we doing… this is not working… can we survive.
And what progress can we claim, after all? I’ll tell you how many letters in support of a bed bug task force we’ve collected. Ready?
50.
Fifty. At this rate… Actually, I don’t want to think about that.
What I can’t help thinking about is that we’ve only been around for a short time and already city agencies won’t return our calls. So, just a heads up, among other things, we’ll have to rely on real reporters to sort out our bed bug math this year. The end of the fiscal year is at hand! New 311 bed bug complaint numbers to come! Eventually.
But, alas, probably not from us.
Still, we’re coming to Williamsburg tomorrow.
We’ll be on the sidewalk, handing out leaflets. Something or other about a bed bug task force. They may get wet.
If you’re around, do stop to say hello.
If you're in NYC, check out our bed bug task force campaign and the latest city-wide statistics. This is our RSS feed. We hope you don't have bed bugs (anymore, ever).
