That’s definitely not true

Trump: "Chinese restaurants in America today outnumber the five largest fast foods in the United States all combined. That's a pretty big statement."

Just discovered this band and their new album. It’s great and this song in particular is just what we need in these times. So happy. So retro. open.spotify.com/track/1IIczk...

Conducting interviews for NC GA endorsements and just learned that there is a progressive caucus in the house and hopefully one forming in the Senate

I’m grateful that I lived in a time before Mapquest and the internet and AI. So that I can use them as tools, but know that I have the capability of thinking without them. I worry for our kids.

Look if you've got a better way to run a country than "putting an illiterate octogenarian bigot on TV every few days to free associate and complain, and then everyone tries to figure out if it means we're about to start a war or not" I'd love to hear it. But the constitution says this is it.

That bird looks appropriately scared

That’s my president! Delivering a 🔥speech www.instagram.com/reel/DX1fWIf...

Made it on Fox!

Reminder that everyone can participate in the No Buy part of May Day tomorrow. Don’t buy anything, but if you absolutely must, avoid big corporations.

We got a letter of support for NC educators from an important union leader in England. So cool that our story has gone global!

Our little rally on Friday now has a special guest! m.youtube.com/watch?v=tHnA...

Last night Forsyth became the 4th (and largest) school district in NC to have a majority of their workers be union members. This is great for the state and I was happy to play a small part in getting them there.

We’re going to get to the point that a banana costs $10 and then RIP to the Lucille Bluth gif

Omg there’s a Northern Exposure rewatch podcast called Northern Disclosure

I think I’m somewhere in this old picture, but I definitely see a lot of familiar faces - people working their tails off to shut down districts for Friday!

I don’t think it’s about Blockbuster, per se. I think it’s about planning a weekend with your friends, hitting up Blockbuster and then actually spending quality time together. Who does that anymore?

This again?

Anyone who is unclear about why a massive expression of discontent over the chronic underfunding of public education in NC is necessary, take a look at exactly what the last 15 years have done to our public schools and, by extension, to our children. notesfromthechalkboard.com/2026/04/25/w...

It’s one thing to hear about the shit this administration is pulling. It’s another thing entirely to try to help your coworkers and slowly start to realize their 1st amendment rights are being violated and there’s probably nothing you can do about it.

This is like porn for liberals apnews.com/video/obama-...

Seems like it was good that I didn’t put much effort into getting to know this year’s Carolina players since they’re all leaving.

On May 1, we rise together. Across every city, every town, every community—we'll pause the machine that feeds injustice. No work. No school. No shopping. Just unity & collective strength. When millions stand still, the powerful feel our movement. Let’s make May Day our day. Share: maydaystrong.org

Starving public schools is not “school choice” That’s putting your hand on the scale so you can make money off education.

I really really hate how quickly AI is taking over and how much it’s already normalized

These are the times silly reality shows were made for. Turn off your brain for a bit.

This would be the first mass march organized by NCAE since May 2018 and May 2019, when many schools closed for the day.

Gas prices are so high that I need to follow 2 weeks of above average driving with a month of social isolation

Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t love the idea of Trump texting journalists

As Carolina fans, how do we want this game to go? I can’t figure it out.

Thought I didn’t have a dog in this fight, but I guess I do. It’s a huskie, cause they beat Duke

*movie trailer guy voice*

We just lost milllllions of dollars of public education funding in NC because of the Republican Supreme Court overturning a previously decided case. All those races lower down on your ballot really matter!

Would be cool if the high price of gas meant landscaping companies wouldn’t mow the same area twice in two days, but apparently not. Bad for environment, bad for noise pollution, bad for living creatures, and now really really bad for your wallet.

He sure does like firing people

Spent the past 2 days talking to public school workers in Forsyth. Turns out that ‘losing’ 35 million dollars has a big impact on workers and students.

6:30 on April 1 and they already got me

North Carolina’s decision not to pass a budget this year is going to have devastating effects on public education. It’s budget season and it’s ugly all over the state. The privatizers and the politicians they bought are purposefully starving the schools.

This helps

So excited that NCAE will be taking to the streets of Raleigh on May Day! The list of reasons why are endless, but for starters: no state budget means no educator got the raise we were entitled to this year. And we’re paying more for health insurance = pay cut.

This is hilarious

Remember that behind every successful protest (that actually creates change) there are hundreds of texts that are like “why did row 273 just get weird?” If you have spreadsheet skills or childcare skills or are good at talking to people, etc, etc, *you* can make a difference.

Hubert Davis beat Duke in K’s last home game and then beat Duke in the Final Four to end K’s career. The other 177 games do not matter.

Hubert gone

Me: What season is it now? 2nd graders: Pollen!!

182 years ago, deep in the Amazon, explorers stumbled upon a new species….

I never wanted to be one of the Fire Hubert fans, but I think they really have no other option

If Trump didn’t keep reminding me, I would have forgotten that Biden was president. Where did those 4 years go? I can’t remember a single thing that happened.
