A new report from the University of California shows that the state's decision to raise the minimum wage for fast food workers to $20/hr didn’t hurt jobs, or raise prices much. Data from over 2,000 restaurants shows that the $20/hr minimum wage didn’t reduce employment. /1

Nothing like a white wine roadie while you destroy the world to make your friends rich

One of the most annoying parts of the Iran war—apart from us even being there to begin with—has to be the annoying and overwhelmingly shitty AI slopaganda from both sides.

We are the single greatest threat to peace in the entire world, with our foreign policy being dictated by the executive boards of the military industrial complex through the fascist meat puppets in DC and Israel.

BREAKING: in lieu of unsafe vaccines the FDA now requires all babies to snort cocaine off a toilet seat

The liberal version of "America First" is when they selfishly argue that everyone should have voted for Kamala Harris, despite her material support for genocide, because the lives of people in the US need to be prioritized over stopping the war crimes we're committing around the world.

Work until you drop dead mid-shift so the billionaires can have more. Bodies are an endlessly renewable resource. Have more babies that we may feed the machine with their flesh and bones! Then will we portion back a fraction of your labor, allowing you only the means to subsist for another workday.

The man who told reporters it’s time to move on from the Epstein files won’t shut up about the 2020 election.

As far as I can tell, Congress’ job is to call what the White House is doing illegal and then rubber stamp its budget

BREAKING: Staggering scenes as brave Iranians stand up to their illegitimate government in Tehran... um, hang on, I'm being told this is actually Minneapolis. Forget I said anything...

ICE killed an unarmed mom and the administration's response was to drag her corpse through the mud by calling her a terrorist

"I didn't know it was being boycotted!" isn't a defence. Whenever I'm encouraged to engage with a piece of media, product, store, etc. that I haven't before: I search "[commodity name] boycott" online, look at the results, assess & act accordingly. It's the easiest thing in the world to do.

Here's the link for the CECOT story that Bari Weiss spiked for those who are interested (NOT recorded off a TV)... archive.org/details/60mi...

Two books EVERY American should read right now...

Americans who saw through the propaganda for war in the middle east but now fully buy into it for regime change in Venezuela are the weirdest. That’s like managing to pull your head out of your ass, taking a deep breath, and then shoving it right back in there.

Hey #EduSky, I have a question for you... Where should I look to find large school grant opportunities? I found something I want to get for my school, but it's five grand... After budget cuts, I am 100% certain our district won't fund it.

I'm not super familiar with Schwarzchild cosmology, so this feels like it's going to be a fascinating neuro-spicy rabbit hole for me 🤯

FBI Director Kash Patel DOES NOT want you to track his luxury jet. But you can. Read more: interc.pt/47H9Dg9 ✍️ @sambiddle.com 📹 @jordanuhl.com

If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media. But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.

@brennanleemulligan.bsky.social I'm a noob to the TTRPG scene. As a special education teacher and nerd, I want to try and use TTRPGs to help develop my middle school student's social and executive functioning skills and was wondering if you had any good recommendations. Big fan of your work 🫡

What if I told you, you can have good Universal Healthcare, Social Housing, good Benefits and Pensions, and all you have to sacrifice is having billionaires that aren't as rich. Much better than endless hate to make billionaires, trillionaires. Isn't it?

Amnesty International USA condemned the strikes as a “murder spree.” “The administration has not even named its victims, nor provided evidence of their alleged crimes. But even if they did, intentionally killing people accused of committing crimes who pose no imminent threat to life is murder.”

Some recent musings about the state of #education... (A thread 🧵) #edusky As we dive head long into the end phase of neoliberalism, we are at a crucial point in our societal and economic (d)evolution where we can either continue down our current path towards techno-feudalism and fossil fascism,

There it is folks, the most American photo ever taken. Truly captures the spirit of this nation. A flag flying at half mask in honor of a racist in front of a McDonald’s outside of a torture facility.

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory? Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

Those of you who have been silent during the 23 month long genocide in Gaza have NO BUSINESS condemning what happened today.

Solidarity! ✊

FACTS.

There is no origin story of the police without the story of the reorganization of human society by the birth, expansion, and dominance of the system of capitalism.

bluesky is dying* *inhospitable to flagrant nazis and fascists who can't get engagement due to being blocked on sight and having no algorithm to artificially spread their stupid bullshit around

Comrade Lenin wants the MEMES!

If you are a special education teacher (or someone interested in disability justice), I URGE you to read this article. It's incredible. 🙌 #EduSky #SpecialEducation #Disability #SocialJustice

Was nerding out earlier by perusing the Open Access titles on the @springernature.com website. There's some AMAZING resources out there! I am eager to critically assess these books/studies to refine my skills and contribute more effectively on a systemic level at my school/in my district. #EduSky

Just my lil' ol' opinion on HQIM as I celebrate one month of my blog MathEdEfficacy.com 💜💜💜🔥🔥🔥 #BlackEduSky #EduSky #iteachmath #grateful

Just started reading this today, and I can already tell this is going to be a whirlwind. I'm especially curious to read about N. Korea, Libya, Syria, and China (Tiananman Square and Xinjiang specifically).

Try explaining to your grandkids that our true descent to fascism by federalizing the Nat'l Guard was bc a DOGE employee named "Big Balls" was beat up by a 15 y/o boy and girl... This move is likely a test for future operations across the US (esp. in bigger lib cities). This timeline is so stupid.

HOW CAN LIBERALS WANT A TWO STATE SOLUTION WHEN THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE PALESTINE'S STATEHOOD?

Autopsies are rare when the goal is general medical insight about the causes of stillbirth and pregnancy loss more generally, but they are seemingly routine when criminal consequences are possible, according to legal scholar who has written a book on pregnancy loss.

Tech bros are insufferable 😒
