Divesting from the holidays is a powerful ways you can fight back. Between now & New Year's is when this system makes a *solid* percent of the money it takes from us.

Reclaiming these times of community/connection is vital. Travel less, spend local, shop small. Say NO to the status quo.

I'm in, if still in need. I understand the call. And the need. Info@trunkofmycar.org

In nature, growth is cyclical. It moves forward and backward. Resistance to this fact creates collapse. Also known as recession...

Nature is the best business model.

Be a beta reader for my book? You get a free copy of the book electronically before it’s published, read it answer a few questions that’s it.. if you have a few hours to spare next week, give me a shout. It’s is short - only about 15,000 words. :-)

Black background graphic featuring a sepia-toned portrait of Karl Marx sitting in a chair with his hands folded. Below the image is a quote in white serif text: “There must be something rotten in the very core of a social system which increases its wealth without diminishing its misery.” His name appears beneath in gold lettering.

There’s something rotten alright. When the top 1% hoard the wealth while everyone else toils just to survive, that’s a rigged system, and it’s working exactly as designed.

Happy #marxistmonday to those who observe 💜

Cooperatives are a better alternative to capitalism. For many reasons but especially because no matter how much someone contributes, they still have only one vote. Power is equally distributed.

Community-Based Enterprises: Driving Local Impact and Growth Explore community based enterprises: what they are, how they empower communities, and their impact on local economies. Build a sustainable future.

Community-based enterprises generate wealth for communities. Profits are reinvested to create a wealth multiplier effect, allowing for the improvement of essential services like transportation, housing, education, and healthcare for everyone.

This is what inclusive economics looks like.

There is a book club organization out there emailing authors telling them the club will feature their work for a "modest fee" for "branded materials" etc. Do not fall for this nonsense. You should never, as a writer, have to pay for such things.

Ahem... We also were not affected by today's Cloudflare outage. js.

📣 I CAIN'T GET IN THA CLUUUUBBB!!

And we'll be moving off of MailChimp in the coming days. These companies make it hard but also too easy...

The Future of Work Must Belong to Workers ​A call for a new labor Bill of Rights in the age of automation.

We can build a new social contract for the automated age—a Labor Bill of Rights that reclaims the meaning of work and the purpose of progress.

That contract should rest on three pillars: profit sharing, a national transition fund, and public oversight, says @mattwatkinspolicy.bsky.social.

“We must recognize that we can’t solve our problem now until there is a radical redistribution of economic and political power.”

— Martin Luther King Jr.

I know a lot is going on, but I would really appreciate a share. I'm still waiting on a check and I'm wrapping up the rest of my small gigs this week. If you need any art and you like what I do, please consider contacting me. I'd like to think my budget is reasonable, and I put out some good art

"Wait for you" Bonham comes to mind...

I know many new writers worry about how readers will receive their work. That’s a valid concern! That said, two things:

1. This gig is only worth it if you write what YOU want.

2. Some will hate your stuff, but some will like it. Your readers. They’re awesome. Write for them.

Authors, Beware! There's a firm called "ClaimsHero" doing aggressive social media outreach claiming to
"help" you file to get $ in the Anthropic class action. In fact, it's a bait-and-switch, they are luring authors to sign up with them, then OPTING THEM OUT of the class action so they'll get zilch.

Pledge to Hang Up on T-Mobile T-Mobile is siding with the Trump Administration and far-right extremists like Elon Musk. It’s time for people of conscience to find a better phone carrier.

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have just authorized a massive strike.

Union Starbucks baristas voted to authorize the strike by 92%.

Now baristas in over 25 cities could launch an unfair labor practice strike on Thursday, November 13th.

Central to Fanon's humanist development was a decentralised cooperative approach to the economy rather than one based on private property or state-direction, w/a future of human relations w/o the burdens of racism, patriarchy and capitalist exploitation. #marxistmonday
