It’s a little loud on Sam Furr Road at Statesville Road in Huntersville, NC, just north of Charlotte. This is @indivisiblelkn.bsky.social and friends.

These are good points. I won’t blame anyone for continuing to stay out of Target even if the demands are met, but I also won’t hold it against anyone who chooses to go back.

The experience of sudden unemployment in THIS economy is a specific kind of terror. While I look for work and wait for my unemployment claim to be processed, I only have limited capacity to glance at the news. Lifelong anxiety has one benefit: I listen when my body tells me I’m too stressed.

So far I see plenty of jobs for people to TRAIN fucking AI to do my job, but not as many openings for me in my line of work.

I was just laid off, and I haven’t needed to look for a job in more than 20 years. I’m so scared I can hardly move.

RIP, Val Kilmer. Too bad there’s no mention of “Real Genius,” one of my favorite movies of his.

Before I was a writer I was an artist, but I drifted away from my daily drawing habit many years ago. I’ve done a little sketching once in a while. The urge to draw is growing, but I don’t have a desk, so I ordered a drawing board. I’ve got pencils and a bunch of paper. I’m excited!

If there was ever a symbol of why we need to get big money out of politics, reform campaign financing, stop conflicts of interest, and tax great wealth, Elon Musk is it. Kudos to Susan Crawford on this big victory for democracy, labor rights, and reproductive freedom in Wisconsin.

Cory Booker as he breaks Strom Thurmond's speaking record: "I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here despite his speech. I'm here because as powerful as he was, the people are more powerful."

With this emotional and important filibuster, Cory Booker is actually delaying a vote on that thumb-looking sumbitch, Matthew Whitaker, for Ambassador to NATO. And even if it's just "theater," theater is a necessary component of successful political movements.

The most important tool that Democrats have right now, in the minority, is communications. The microphone and platforms are just sitting there, and they're up for grabs. Booker showed he's in the 10% of Democrats who seem to understand that.

Btw, the Senate was supposed to confirm a Trump lackey as NATO Ambassador this morning, but now they're not doing that bc of Booker's filibuster. He's not just talking, he's disrupting. (And drawing media attention, and YOUR attention, during a time when attention is the whole damn ball game.)

We’d be so much better off with @booker.senate.gov as the Senate Minority Leader instead of Sen. Chuck Schumer.

Dear media, It’s not: “President Trump Discusses Possible Third Term.” It’s: “Kleptocratic Wannabe Dictator Says He Can Serve ‘Third Term’ In Blatant Disregard Of The Constitution He ‘Swore’ An Oath To Defend.” You’re welcome.

If you think Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race doesn’t affect you just because you don’t live there—think again. If Musk pulls this off, it’s one step closer to him buying an election near you. Got friends, family, or even followers in Wisconsin? Tell them to get out and vote the right way. 📢

Maybe now we can start having a mainstream conversation about how prisons are a continuation of slavery.
