Dear Texas, Kolache actually is the plural for "koláč" (you can just call it a kolach) and it's really just the open faced donuty pastry m-ok. If it has sausage it's not a kolach it's a klobásník but it's yummy and all is forgiven.

Paid political leadership is the single most bureaucratizing tendency any left organization. It inexorably leads to a self-perpetuating body that has no real accountability except to informal unelected factional cliques. That kind of rooted rot is far worse than a paid staff.

It tends to fall into the memory hole of the US Left but I’ve been ruminating on the immigrant mass movement of 2006-2007. Huge marches, rallies and even wildcats at meatpacking plants driven by Spanish language media, churches, local orgs. 1/2 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_Un...

This is about as succinct a snapshot of US political disconnect as one can get. Polls and studies should all be taken with ageism of salt before you read cross tabs, methodology etc.

Facts on the ground about the DCA crash: - staffing levels at National's control tower have been below adequate for years. - DCA has had only fully certified controllers as of the end of 2023. The FAA and the union have said that 30 is the level it should be staffed. 1/3

Our biggest duty as the Left in the next few months is to stay stead, triage, and be bulldog tenacious.

The first Trump term the strategy was essentially shock and awe. Demoralize, confuse, distract and suppress with sheer volume of noise. The task for the US Left is to roll slow and smooth. To rid the distractions from our own lost far left and focus on a concentrated fight.

Goodbye TikTok, we hardly knew ye. If I only had a dollar for every DSA member who told me that we had to go hard on you, I could buy you many cases of consolation beer.
