Its weird that spooning and forking are both generally pleasant experiences as a human, but knifing is a distinctly unpleasant experience
Day 5 no heat in my house and it snowed for the first time this year today and its March 10th. Cool cool cool cool cool
worth remembering, David Lynch directed “fix your hearts or die” specifically at transphobes. it wasn’t a generic “no mean people allowed” statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.
The Solidarity Mural is an invaluable piece of our union’s history. When we sold the building in Chicago, we knew we had to rescue the mural. There were technical difficulties including some pieces that crumbled.
Can we count on you to help us finish preserving this vital piece of UE’s history?

When I saw the news story about the girls school being bombed, one of my first thoughts was about how unlike American physics, Iranian physics is 50% women at the undergrad level and how some of those girls who had been murdered were going to be physicists one day
I remember a bunch of ppl saying how good Carney is in response to my hockey post.
He may be more civil and polite. And yah I don’t think he’s a child abuser or rapist. But he’s constantly on board with violent imperialism. Just politely. Civilly.
Mark Carney is an imperialist.
Israel has closed all the crossings into Gaza and reimposed total siege.

![Minneapolis does have an incredible history of organizing going back to the truck strikes of 1934 and co-op movements [of the 20th century].
I grew up on the West Bank of Minneapolis, which is now where much of the Somali community is, but used to be a super hippie community, and so the places around me were mostly anarchist-owned co-ops. It’s not the neighborhood that most American children grow up in. We have a different idea of what’s possible, because we have a city that kind of works a little differently and has a history of collectivism and taking care of each other.
I think also because of what happened in 2020 [with George Floyd’s police murder setting off protests around the world], and even before that, with Jamar Clark and Philando Castile [who were shot and killed by police in 2015 and 2016], we’re reflexive organizers. It’s easy for us to get together and figure out how we’re going to approach something.
But this has been totally different. Back then, people were putting a lawn sign in their yard that said Black Lives Matter. Now people are driving an immigrant person to work every day.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:tabiejtbwtcxuc2vxmk63uwj/bafkreigt7tkfsv5gn77hgzgbb4nv7mrmzaqh7qga7zj34pmgayllecsx7i)
also really loved hearing from @ziibiing.com about what makes Minneapolis's organizing legacy unique — going back to labor and coop organizing a century ago, to the last decade's racial justice and anti-policing organizing.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”
What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.
