Want to take action? We want that too!
Our least favorite thing political parties do is ask for money that working folks don't have, then insist that you register to vote (for them), then ignore you. So, we want to offer some way more important things you can do to make your voice heard on the 364 days there isn't an election. The list below is a VERY brief smattering of options.
Have any other ideas? Feel free to submit them in the comment form below this page.
Who knows, if you've got compelling ideas we might reach out to ask you to contribute content to the website, or even to run for office! If that's something you'd want; no pressure.
Simple Stewardship
We're all about the little things you can do to feel like you're making a positive impact for our planet. To that end, check out this video from a Sheridan nonprofit (Science Kids) and Wyoming PBS on making habitats for bees. So easy children can do it!
Be sure to check our blog for more content on Simple Stewardship. We'll have lots to say!
And please share your own suggestions for ways we can contribute individually, socially, and governmentally to stewarding our planet and this beautiful patch of it we call Wyoming.
Loving Your Neighbor
There is overwhelming scientific evidence of the value of smiling for fighting all the maladies of modernity. We're all grappling with ennui (google it, great word), malaise, aimlessness, and a million DSM labelled conditions. So, the best thing you can do, especially when you're in a good mood, is take a walk — in your neighborhood, downtown, or even along a trail — and smile at those around you.
If that feels too hippie-hippie or intangible, another great option is to volunteer some time at a local food pantry or donate food to one. Better yet, host a meal for some of your friends, family, neighbors, and even strangers! You' be surprised how simple it is to post up in a park and invite those around you over for some free food.
Wyomingites haven't fallen fully into the trap of distrust that plagues our cities. Breaking bread with each other is how we maintain our communal feeling.
Fun Fact: Christians used to hold "love feasts," and some sects still carry on the practice.
Contributing to Local Journalism
Wyoming is blessed to still have several strong local newspapers and online journalism outlets, all of whom desperately need readers, subscribers, and content contributors. Local news is also the best way to stay informed about the issues that actually affect Wyoming, rather than getting swept up in the national narratives. So, we highly encourage you to subscribe to at least one local newspaper.
Even if you barely read it, you're contributing to the best check on government power there is; a robust press.
If you have something to say but aren't sure how to say it, want help with writing, or even just want to share your thoughts more privately, feel free to contact us directly at dinowyo@gmail.com or with the form on the bottom of this page.
By the way, criticizing the bias of traditional media is itself a worthwhile thing to say.
Not only can we help, but we can also connect you with several organizations around the state (on all ends of the political spectrum) who can help you write strong articles that will be printed by local outlets.
No matter what you have to say, even if it's to say that you think the DINOs are terrible, you should be saying it in your local newspaper.
Typical Politics - Money and Voting
Eventually, we'll have all that money stuff worked out and be in a better spot to accept donations (probably with a PAC or whatever new scheme the parties have mandated by then). But, if you do feel so inclined as to support us financially (or with donations of supplies like the wonderful PA system someone gave us) feel free to email us directly at dinowyo@gmail.com and we can coordinate. We're also always open to volunteers!
Meanwhile, please do register to vote, ideally as a Democrat so you can support us and our candidates in the primary elections and ensure that Wyoming has a better range of options in the next general election. But, even if you are an unbreakable Red Loyalist, we still want you to register and make your choice for elected representatives known! Just don't forget that there's work to be done outside of Election Day too!
It's best to register before July 1st, 2025, as well-intentioned but horribly-designed new rules will make it much harder for anyone to vote (especially young folks and renters). But, if you want help before or after that deadline, just let us know and we can at the very least point you in the right direction.
