Volkswagon is the first of many organizing victories that will come in the wake of the UAW strike. Militancy builds support!

This takes a look at the history of labor militancy on scales smaller than strikes, and advocates for guerilla labor actions as a solid foundation for larger actions like strike.

It's a really good look at practical examples from history of how to make gains at work even when you are between contracts or maybe even don't have a union.

"Through every diplomatic means possible"

I.e. he's gonna ask nicely

 

Turning the global conflict meter and looking back at the audience like a contestant on the price is right

Watching the Biden admin is wild. At one minute he'll be escalating the wars in the Ukraine and Palestine, but the next he'll be funding the NLRB and addressing the housing crisis in a way that improves walk-ability.

It's like, he has two settings: "actually useful moderate" and "KILLKILLKILLKILL"

Unfortunately, this makes him the best US president since carter

Getting people to live in offices is good because it brings people back to walkable, urban cores.

It's too bug-eaten to tell if it's all-white on the inside. I would avoid it because you can't really sight-ID it.

Also the shell around the outside is too thick (should be eggshell thin) imo there's a good chance it's an Earthball (also poisonous, but not destroying angel poisonous).

Get Mike Beuge's dichotomous key, it'll really help you not die.

We're at the stage in humor where instead of telling jokes, we're conditioning ourselves to laugh at an increasingly horrifying reality.
