Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs.

A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP β€” which is about to get cut.

If Bezos can spend $50M on a wedding, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

HHS announced today they will consider Head Start a welfare program, not an education program, and will subject it to new citizenship requirements. This goes against decades of legal precedence that all children in America have a right to education. Announcement here. www.hhs.gov/press-room/p...

There are trans Americans right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist.

Well, I am. We are. We will.

Nicole Chung on Taking It Day By Day

β€œThere has never been a time when you, or I, made art in a society that truly supports or values it, within a state that recognizes our needs and our full humanity … We are still here. We’re still showing up for each other … we have to be curious, and keep nurturing and expanding our imaginations”
