On #MayDay2025, we honor WV’s coal miners. Early 20th-century miners faced poverty, scrip pay, and deadly conditions. Organizing with UMWA led to violent clashes like Paint Creek-Cabin Creek (1912-13) & Blair Mountain (1921). Their fight for rights mirrors May Day’s origins. #wvcoalminer #wvcoalwars

The mayor of my home town condoned the lynching of homeless people. His response to rumors of the homeless in the city starting fires was “you got the tree I got the rope”. These fascists are not only in federal and state government - they are in our hometowns.

Joe Rigney is a joke. A narcissist disguised as a theologian. I have met many people like him in the past but he might win the prize for biggest jackass. Empathy is not a sin.

First Flashes Post This is Penny. She was the first street cat we saved. We recently found out she had a rare form of cancer and had to have emergency surgery to remove one of her hind legs. She has made it through surgery and is home recovering. So we now have 2 three legged cats in our home.

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons: -We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S. -The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous. 🧵⬇️

I have work to do but I'm distracted by watching US scientific progress & leadership being irreversibly undermined because a few unelected malcontents are penalizing researchers for following legal requirements set out by congressional orders to augment basic research with benefits to society.

I found this on a Substack I’ve been reading lately (I’ll put the link in this thread). It’s an Executive Summary of how America’s critical infrastructure has been captured by neo-reactionaries. It’s pretty detailed and gives a good breakdown of what Musk is doing. america2.news/content/file...

Does anyone else feel overwhelmed? Like everyday there is some form of new stupidity or diatribe the takes place. It’s all happening so fast you can’t keep track and you’re losing the ability to check on the folks you know are being affected because every other hour a new attack is launched.

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)
