for being a part of the solution instead of waiting for someone to lead you, and you need to do it yesterday.

And in the meantime, you will make a huge difference in the lives of people where you live. Don’t wait.

it would take to pull off a general strike here that wouldn’t result in millions getting fired, starving and dying would be the largest organizing effort in human history.

It’s not impossible, but it is a long way off. If you want it, you need to start organizing locally and take responsibility

Every time someone drops into my comments asking about a general strike, I have to remind folks that unlike in Europe we have at will employment here allowing essentially anyone to be fired at any time for any reason, and health insurance tied to employment.

The amount of organizing

This two-parter below is exactly why it's hard to make clothes in the United States.

Let's look at how much it costs to produce a button-up shirt in the US. 🧵
Someone on Twitter replies to me: "meh. buy american or stfu." Two hours later, in a separate thread, the write: "$30 for a single button-up is ridiculous unless it is decent quality silk."

The Trump administration said Americans would fill farm jobs vacated by undocumented workers.

That's not happening, the Department of Labor now admits.
Trump's Labor Department admits that Trump's immigration crackdown is causing a shortage of farm workers
With fewer immigrant workers available on American farms, there is a risk of "supply shock-induced food shortages," the Labor Department says.

The second the IDF withdraws one inch as part of the hostage deal, Hamas re-emerges like rats from the sewers to execute, terrorize and brutalize their own people, promise to never relinquish power, and chant for the massacre of Jews.

A year ago yesterday was a very happy day for me. I had lost my prostate. It was good riddance, as it was riddled with cancer. I’m now cancer-free — and thankful for the tax-funded technology that saved my life.

It's the first time in WNBA Playoffs history a team has made at least 17 free throws and still had an opposing player match that.

It's happened once in WNBA regular season history: Shavonte Zellous made 17 for the Shock compared to the Dream's 17 back on June 26, 2009.

17 made free throws for A'ja Wilson is 2nd in WNBA Finals history behind only Penny Taylor, who went 18-of-18 in Game 5 of the 2007 Finals to clinch the Phoenix Mercury's first championship.
