As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Housing First approaches to homelessness, that prioritize getting a stable roof over people's heads before addressing trauma from the streets & other issues, prove to lead to long term stability. Rounding every homeless person up for forced mental health care which is incarceration is not the way!

All hope drawn from politicians is ultimately false hope. The only true hope in this world is the hope we create together Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

if you're going to a protest today I wish you luck. The only specific thing I will beg of you is this: don't use milk to wash out tear gas or mace. if you see a street medic with milk, yell at them until they throw it out. do not continue to spread lies about emergency medicine.

you fucked around and now the Episcopalians are doing memes. are you happy now. are you

Find you a man who looks at you the way I look at my babe's elbows.

really enjoying all the people trying to explain the bible to the pope today

imagine flying halfway around the world for a meeting that could’ve been an email and some guy with a hangover is just shouting at you that it’s against the rules to be fat or gay

Oh the plus side, Disney being a bunch of spineless cowards means I don't have to make the hard choice of what streaming service to cut. Which means more money for PBS and books.

Halloween stuff is in full swing at the pet store. Did Beans need a new scratch pad house? No. Did she get one anyway? Obviously.

Hey, it's my favorite day of the month. New book day from @akpress.org This month is Zaragoza Bound, A Chronicle of the Durruti Column. According to AK Press "A historical account of militant working-class resistance against fascism"

Oh History, you tease

It’s very a serious endeavor, this tile archive.

Yeah and like the US burned off almost literally its entire stockpile in 2020, they were firing stuff older than a lot of the protesters by the end because they were just running out of all of their stockpiles Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

as usual, Margaret eloquently summarizes the thoughts that have been drifting around in my head this week. @margaret.bsky.social

Hey, good news, they can be stopped, they will be stopped, and you're going to help stop them. (This post is not about voting or calling your congressperson.)

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

bruh John Yoo drafted the memos to give the Bush administration legal cover for torturing people John Yoo said the Geneva Convention doesn't apply to "terrorists" and even he is like 'yikes Trump is crossing a line'

Go birds fuck ice free Palestine go birds fuck ICE free palestine

I think "rest in p*ss" is rude. but when he's buried, we get another gender-neutral bathroom. because that's what wannabe genocidaires deserve.

It's been a gift to see all of the white people who are publicly defending that man. A true gift. They are offering you an opportunity to clearly identify your antagonists.

Oh. Uhhh... Unexpected but okay. Cool.

Bless these brave women!

the funniest possible day for it to happen is 9/11

Being shitty about/to unhoused people is such a hardline dealbreaker. It means you’re nakedly motivated by your disgust for a group of people in your community and not at all curious about the material conditions that got them there.

It's the best day of the month again! New book day!! This month's book from AK Press is Hope Without Hope Rojava and the Revolutionary commitment. I've only recently started reading about Rojava but cannot wait to get deeper into this book.

I reported on famine in South Sudan in 2017, traveling to rebel-held territory in Unity state where tens of thousands of people were judged to be in "IPC5", which is to say, totally without food and on the verge of death. In Gaza 244,000 people are now in that stage

The four horsemen of CEO fear:

I realized that I haven't seen a single one of these, only people calling them out God I love my mute lists

God I hate the 4th. My neighbors are shooting off big boy fireworks along with the little ones. They're all somewhere in between reminding me of cops shooting 'less lethal' or the someone banging on my door or window. PTSD bingo tonight

Fireworks have stressed me out ever since 2020 because they're just too auditorily reminiscent of the munitions cops used on us during the Floyd uprising, and isn't that just a perfectly-packaged bit of symbolism right there

Big fan of democracy but we'll have to admit it's an L of historic proportions to get subverted and destroyed not by some strategic genius but by possibly the dumbest man on earth

you are capable & you will survive this. i’m not sharing news like this to send folks into despair. we have to prepare, but we are going to make it & we are going to win.

Good morning Bluesky !

New book day? New book day x3! My library order, new Friends of @akpress.org subscription, and my Kickstarter rewards from @margaret.bsky.social all came on the same day. Good problems.

Sharing to bookmark this for my future self. This is the third time I've seen this book mentioned and only seen praise for its writing.

Lord, I've seen what you've done for other cities

Andrew Cuomo gets publicly humiliated. Bill Clinton learns his endorsement is worth less than dogshit. What a great time to be a hater. A golden age.

Bread and roses and hormones too

The most important part of republican fascism is the demand you must be nice to them.

Wow: ICE Has Deported at Least 70 U.S. Citizens

God I love a garage sale, almost as much as I love a side-of-the-road free box. I was born to scavenge

Let’s remember that Rolando literally came into our comments to post his public Instagram profile & the then that he’s a city employee. He wanted it, we gave it. It’s always the tough guys who cry loudest when there’s consequences. Maybe now he’ll learn his lesson. 11/

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds. He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings. He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights. This is political intimidation.
