Not my best work. There was hardly any spots for good pics. Nbd if they’re unusable.

Boomer Lake 😂

2018-07-19 20:08:21 UTC  

An unfortunate name now, but the Boomers of the late 1800s were the people who settled Oklahoma.

2018-07-19 20:19:04 UTC  

That’s really cool actually

2018-07-19 20:19:20 UTC  

The name itself is pretty awesome out of the current context

2018-07-19 21:06:30 UTC  

Killer content!

2018-07-19 21:06:46 UTC  

You guys have been active!

2018-07-19 23:31:34 UTC  

So many great photos lately!

2018-07-20 00:51:26 UTC  

I still think that this is a bad idea.

2018-07-20 00:51:48 UTC  

It's not hard for people to predict which books we are going to put them in and just take out the cards before someone finds them.

2018-07-20 00:52:46 UTC  

And no, the same logic doesn't apply to posters. If you put up a poster in a fairly high traffic area, at least a few people will see it before whoever from Twitter find it and takes it down.

2018-07-20 00:53:16 UTC  

😦

2018-07-20 00:53:18 UTC  

With business cards, the idea is that only one person sees it, but, in exchange, it's more targeted to a specific audience.

2018-07-20 01:02:45 UTC  

I see it as a way for us to show where IE members are active. One person may open the book and see the card but tens of thousands will see it on twitter.

2018-07-20 01:11:51 UTC  

That's not really a valid comparison. The majority of those who see it on Twitter already know that IE is a thing and are probably expecting to see it in their feed. Realistically, it's something like one person who find it through a book, while a few new people will see it through Twitter. And most people on Twitter just scroll past it, while finding an IE card in a relevant book is something that would probably make you take a second look. The Twitter account is definitely valuable, however, we shouldn't sacrifice the efficacy of real life activism in favor of Twitter. If that's what we're doing, we might as well just put posters on cork boards at home and take pictures of them.

2018-07-20 01:24:16 UTC  

We can very easily put business cards and book and NOT tell anyone about it

2018-07-20 01:37:49 UTC  

Ya, exactly

2018-07-20 01:37:53 UTC  

That's what I'm saying

2018-07-20 01:39:55 UTC  

I once saw the guy in front of me in a lecture hall looking at Baked Alaska's twitter. Wish I'd had a business card to give him

2018-07-20 04:10:14 UTC  

@TMatthews did you happen too strike up conversation about it?

2018-07-20 04:12:35 UTC  

Business cards in books is certainly useful as the people who might read those books are the types we want to look into us. I think it helps new activists or perhaps prospective types you might meet irl get over any "anxieties" when on their first time out etc.

2018-07-20 05:04:44 UTC  

@Johnny B. Populus Unfortunately, no. My normie friend sat down next to me a minute later

2018-07-20 05:05:48 UTC  

@TMatthews Normies ruin everything..REEEEEE!

2018-07-20 05:15:03 UTC  

He's a decent friend, but he's pretty much apathetic about everything besides sports haha
