The union campaign at Garner’s RDU1 warehouse lost by a wide margin earlier this year. Organizers say they faced retaliation and a massive “union-busting” effort. ncnewsline.com/2025/05/10/n... @kingdollar.bsky.social #ncpol #nc #Amazon #RDU1

Color for dinner tonight, mostly from leftover veggies in the fridge. (We otherwise cleaned house, did yardwork, unexpectedly helped unlock keys from a car, and acquired birdseed and groceries. It's been a day!)

Let it sink in that a student with a legal visa was detained for six weeks just for writing an editorial. In America.

I realize I’m just shouting into the wind here, but: please, please, please stop posting screenshots without links, or summarizing breaking news events without links. There’s a serious problem with unsourced assertions all over the world right now, don’t be part of the problem.

It feels like life right now is just a daily barrage of being forced to make one terrible decision vs another. Both personally and professionally. So I always feel like the worst person even if I am adopting a "least harm" approach. *sigh*

Honestly, Elmo's post just makes me think of all the great EPA folks who are moving on. What a loss of talent and knowledge.

I actually tried the cat-specific calming music this morning for BuddhaCat while he was being an idjit and trying to tear down my workboard, and it worked! He conked out in about 2 minutes. Right on the work desk, of course. *sigh*

This is how I would like all of my social media to read, honestly.

This account is both apoplectic with eco-anxiety and cozy cat/dog/nature photos. There is no middle.

Every environmental policy decision in 2025 is like “is it good for the environment? No. But is it at least good for the economy? Also no”

As someone who lost his mom in the last year, this "Call Your Mom" ad AT&T is running during NHL games is a nice little dagger out of nowhere. But, damn, they're right. Call your mom. Call your dad too if you still can. Some of us can't.

Currently listening to a Know Your Rights training hosted by NCEJN and one of the presenters just stated that, *as of today*, deportations under Trump are lower than for the same time period under Biden. Also despite the process challenges, most immigrants are safe to carry out daily activities.

There are seven evictions every minute in the United States. I'm not joking. In the time it took me to write this post, seven families will be made homeless. Demographically, four will be Black and two will be otherwise racialized. Two or three will be queer and likely trans.

I really think RFK Jr. hates himself. His entire rhetoric means people like him shouldn't exist

Honestly, this has given me the best laugh of the night. I am now convinced we jumped to an alternative absurdist timeline sometime around Y2K.
