Just finished negotiating a wage contract as a bargaining team member in my union for the first time. No amount of activism, organizing, or reading compares to the grind and roller coaster of being on the bargaining table. Lots of mixed feelings, learned a lot, and exhausted.

just watched this and it rocked, great telling of one of my favorite little fever dreams of history. took great pains to make reenactments accurate while also embracing anachronism, did a phenomenal job of capturing the atmosphere of the era.

The US is targeting the anarchist collective that hosts the popular Noblogs wordpress platform as terrorists. This is truly batshit (as are their various obvious lies about Rose City Antifa etc).
This is a HUGE attack on basic free speech.
