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.

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 nytimes.com/live/2023/01/27/us

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.

The amount of legitimacy the police should have after asking people to turn in those who oppose fascism, white supremacy, and the far-Right to the State is absolute zero.

Listen. My friend
