Will be interesting to see the turnout to an event where they have to roll up their sleeves and do something compared to the “days off school” for the marches.

Been gluing themselves to everything today. I imagine glue that is strong enough to glue a person to an object is probably pretty toxic to the environment.
Still, good for them I say.
