Universal Basic Income so people can actually afford to work on stuff that is important but underfunded. It would basically be a giant government subsidy for work that needs to be done but doesn't generate revenue in a capitalist system.

Have you ever considered that just because a cat has literally just been fed, and this is her 5th meal of the day, that doesn't mean she isn't Starving?

Hi! There's been lots of doomscrolling lately because many things are awful. However, sleep deprivation makes everything worse. You still deserve time to rest and recover. Try not to stay up too late tonight. Max loves you.

And Erika Evans will be the new city attorney, ousting the GOP city attorney after promising to take the office in a more progressive direction.

Have you seen Silence? It's about Jesuit priests in Edo period Japan during the persecution of Christians, and the question of whether internal faith and conviction matters even if you are outwardly denouncing it.

A giant erupting volcano. An enormous turkey the size of a mountain is emerging from the center. The turkey is holding a fire extinguisher in one wing and a turkey fryer pot in the other. The text reads: The Thanksgiving volcano! Nobody likes The Thanksgiving Volcano. Fry your turkey safely. Follow the directions for your fryer. Only fry a turkey outside and away from your home or other flammable materials. Never use turkey fryers in an enclosed area like the garage or porch. Stand by your turkey!

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets.
no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

A graphic for the next What to Do When Your Union Breaks Your Heart workshop, featuring members of Food and Commercial Workers. The workshop is on Tuesday, Nov. 1, from 7.30 p.m. to 9 p.m. ET. The graphic has an orange and pink color scheme and an illustration of a cartoon Norma Rae holding up a sign with a broken heart, instead of the "Union" sign she holds up in the movie.
