Got my free* copy of No Cop City, No Cop World today! *Actually I paid for this as a @haymarketbooks.org book club member, but it’s free right now on their website! www.haymarketbooks.org/blogs/525-fr...

UPDATE: David Huerta was just released from custody!

i recorded this as an example of what all old disney songs sounded like on crummy VHS audio to me as a kid

When protests are happening in southern Ohio (where I grew up), you can be sure they're happening everywhere.

AFSCME is rallying in solidarity with our @seiu.org siblings to demand the immediate release of David Huerta, Vice President of the California Federation of Labor, and President of SEIU California and SEIU-USWW.

We are many, they are few

I know I gotta dig through Labor Notes and that No Shortcuts exists; what other places are there for stories about unions and their strategies for winning campaigns/good contracts? My union is hungry for these kinds of stories, and I have a handful but always need more.

I'm going to hold a training and it's going to be one slide and the slide will read "You Need to Get a Group Chat for All Your Feelings That Don't Need to be Posts, This is Resistance"

i think if you want people to wave an american flag at a protest perhaps you should be the one to do it

they are called centrists because they are going to center themselves in every political conversation. how dare you insinuate that protests have an audience that is not them!!

There's a lot to be said about the protests against ICE, but one thing I really want to say is thank you to the people protesting. You have saved people from being kidnapped. You have kept families together. You may never know how far reaching your actions are, but know that much.

Abolitionists have been talking about abundance for two decades and now no one can use the word anymore, LOLOLOLOL.

The administration has declared war on certain parts of the country directly and they are also intent in murdering their supporters in rural towns. That's what's happening. THAT is the story but there is no mainstream press to cover it. Instead we get stories about college kids being too censorious.

THE ohio state embarrassment

Don't listen to the people bleating on social media that "no one is doing anything." What they are actually saying is that THEY aren't doing anything. The reality is that folks are working in every corner of the world, doing so much to keep themselves and others alive, while building the future.

I keep describing myself in union trainings as “an all tactics bitch” it’s so unfortunate they allow me to speak here

Absolutely thank you to the people standing up to the fascist regime in the streets, in all the places and with all amounts of violence.

I’m at a union retreat this weekend and it’s so good and also tiring to be working diligently with people trying to do good things. Wholly recommend

My employer: we’ve long underinvested in staff. Anyway we’re gonna cut a huge number of you

We have implored many of you to reject the "I'm not a criminal" framing as it does not do the work some of you seem to think it will do.

Comrade card for 6/6/2025.

Toad stayed in the bed, and Frog stayed in the closet. They stayed there for a long time, just feeling very brave together.

I came here to see why New Yorkers got this alert. And I still don't know: "US Coast Guard Safety Zone: Ferry passengers should expect service disruptions on all routes along the East River starting at 6:30 AM tomorrow. Check with service providers and consider alternate routes."

Just got this beautiful comrade card in the mail from @ladyofsardines.bsky.social, in exchange for donating to help free the Mississippi Five! 💜✨️
