Colleagues, an important resource to help us do our work. Please share widely.

"This workbook was created by front line library workers to support our colleagues as they stand up for their communities. As staff work through the guide, they will complete a safety plan for their program and work together as a team to help keep the event as safe as possible."
Somebody asked me what does a milliner make, but I couldn't think of anything off the top of my head.
@malwarejake I'm going to try that later, and if it works, I will owe you my eternal gratitude

With all the recent tech layoffs, I am reminded of this idea:
Workers feel they have no need to organize in prosperous times when work is abundant and wages are fair.
Workers feel they have no Ability to organize in lean times, when layoffs are abundant and wages are contracting.
In both cases, we are wrong. The best time to start organizing was years ago, but the next best time is now.
I don't care what industry you're in, or how comfortable your job is.
The people, united, will never be defeated.

Remember kids, wear a mask to not catch COVID, have soup for your family, take no pictures, and leave your phones somewhere else.

@linebyline @futurebird A regular person who hasn't had their head filled with nonsense for 40 years can see through it, but the billionaire owners of the media have been preparing for this one for a long time. I'm already hearing acquaintances on Facebook say "the job creators will stimulate the economy and the wealth will trickle down." Unless we can deprogram these automatons, we will be outnumbered.

Elon Musk personally banned Chad Loder from Twitter. Reported first by WaPo, now Bloomberg has confirmed with the screenshots. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-01-27/elon-musk-s-twitter-trust-safety-head-ella-irwin-breaks-rules-for-him?leadSource=uverify%20wall

Horrific newly released bodycam video shows brutality of hammer attack on Nancy Pelosi's husband Paul, which professional liars and bigots like #TuckerCarlson and #ElonMusk tried to suggest was a lover's quarrel. #USpol #politics https://www.nytimes.com/live/2023/01/27/us/pelosi-attack-body-cam-video
@willallen They don't care as long as he hates the same people they do.
@AliceMarshall If true, that will likely make him more popular with the GQP base, not less.
@froomkin They have a pay wall, and I'm not giving the #NYT my email address.
If the #NewYorkTimes can't be a competent enough of a member of the #FourthEstate to even protect our democracy, then I there is no way they can be competent enough to protect my email.

RT @ElieNYC
This Memphis video of the lynching of Tyre Nichols must be awful. Basically everybody who has seen it is like "Please don't riot when you see this like you probably should." I've never seen a reaction like that.

This brings to mind a number of people I know--who are NOT billionaires, but surely have given it their best shot with the same technique.
I shamelessly stole this from an email someone sent me. Have no idea of the source, but wish I did so I could properly credit.

Some people believe there's no purpose to "liking" something on Mastodon since it doesn't affect any algorithm.
Not the case.
It does something incredibly valuable: it acknowledges people.
Which is incredibly powerful, and is all the more important *because* it's not connected to gaming any algorithm.
By liking something on Mastodon, you are doing it honestly -- without any agenda at play other than that you like it.
So go ahead. Click that like button for its own sake.
