Then I interviewed our former mayor, a woman again, who said if we wanted to change the system, we must be inside the system. Compare that to the boss who "suggested" resignation to those asking for fair compensation.

My first superintendent, a woman, didn't want us to do overtime. Part of it might be economic - she was very prudent when it came to the use of government funds. But I will always remember her for saying we're not in this job for the good of the country, but for the sake of our family. I miss her.

JFK's "Ask not what your country for you, ask what you can do for your country" is a beautiful quote used to justify unpaid overtime.

Don't pray—learn as much as you can and act. Don't send thoughts—reach out and help directly. Don't have faith—be responsible for yourself. Don't hope—take action and make things happen. Fortune favors those who don't rely on absurd beliefs and try to outsource their destiny.

Each and every person who normalized the idea that this is a "public square" and therefore all people have an open invitation to be an ass in the replies of strangers clearly never learned how to respect anyone but themselves.

Please understand me when I say that you cannot talk yourself out of criminal charges. You can, however, talk yourself into them. "I invoke my rights to silence and counsel and will not answer questions without my attorney present" is the ONLY thing you should EVER say to a police officer, EVER.

Oh no. In the book I’m reading, the mother drops her daughter off at JFK to fly to see her dad. Then when the daughter leaves, the mother immediately books a Lyft from LaGuardia to the West Village. How’d she suddenly switch airports? This kind of missed detail really throws me. 📚💙

as a society I feel we have focused way too much on Dolly Parton singing 'Jolene' and not nearly enough on '9 to 5' (socfemme anthem) and 'why'd u come in here looking like that' (horny anthem)

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

History: “Eventually the incompetent fascists invariably lose power and then society recovers in a new and stronger way” Me: “Oh, cool, so what has to happen for the spell to be broken??” History: “mmmm…well, that part is less encouraging.”

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.
