What a far-too-late, absolutely bare minimum resolution. Its only concession is that Israel has met the LEGAL threshold for genocide. And as @zsamudzi.bsky.social has asserted, “That genocide is a crime is probably the least important thing about it.”

It’s Labor Day and can’t stop thinking about all the labor you put into us. I treated our relationship like just another job while you wanted it to be a lifelong career. Now I’ll never be able to see you go into labor to have our children. Solidarity for all the work you’ve done on yourself.

When I was an Amazon driver, holidays weren’t really holidays. Nobody gets paid holidays. If the holiday falls on a day that you’re regularly scheduled, you have to make up that day to get your regular weekly hours. Would it kill the company to give everyone real paid holidays? Happy Labor Day.

Oklahoma’s superintendent of schools, Ryan Walters, has a headline-grabbing agenda that is inspiring state Republicans to campaign on education — and against Walters. But don't be fooled. OK Ed Ratings went from 17th in the nation to 49th under GOP. Walters just let it slip 2 more points to 50th.

I guess if you're in a major city in a blue state, you have to start thinking about how you're going to successfully vote with the actual military attempting to prevent you. Because that's why the military is being moved into cities right now. They're being pre-mobilized to prevent voting.

Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
