Had a dream I was writing a script for an animated police procedural, except it was Anubis as a coroner-priest solving crimes in ancient Egypt.

Anyway, call me, Hollywood, we’ll talk.

We just want to say, it’s ok to feel sad during the holidays. It’s not selfish, it’s not weakness. It’s grief. It’s ok to grieve. Especially now.

And we’re sending a special hug to all of you who are facing the people who should have loved you best, but chose to hurt you instead. We see you. 💚

Mass deportations don’t protect working people—they weaken labor standards, silence organizing and empower bad employers.

x10 everywhere. tiendas, panaderias, even the restaurants that went with the silly name.
With ICE on our streets, many of our Latino small businesses are seeing noticeably less foot traffic this holiday season.

If you can, show up for our neighbors by shopping local at places like Mercado Central - home to dozens of vibrant mom and pop shops.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.

Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.

The people who need help are not the problem.

It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

This is great! But how about a shout out to folks in hundreds of small towns in red, rural America who risked their livelihoods and maybe even their lives to come out? Everyday heroes and heroines.

We're talking to you, Tellico Plains Tennessee! And dozens more.
