I was on staff at an agency that called us all “freelancers” though we had W2s and didn’t make our own hours so they could get away with not providing any benefits 🙃

There is more courage in these three paragraphs written by a 14-year-old Palestinian girl than what, like, 98% of American politicans have been able to muster thenation.com/article/world/…

There is a great article, somewhere, about how Ruffner was so scared someone would grab his film before he could develop it that he hid it in the hubcap of a car that was driving away from campus

Lost my favorite pair of sunglasses and found out they don’t make them anymore. Can’t hold onto anything too tightly lest grief ruin you….

You might recall Cal Poly Humboldt from a LA Times story last year about how students couldn’t afford housing so they were living in their cars and the administration called them a safety threat, issued citations, and evicted them from all the parking lots.

Fun fact about the woman who argued at SCOTUS today that cities should be able to basically outlaw being homeless: 'Ms. Evangelis was also appointed recently by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors to the Los Angeles County Blue Ribbon Commission on Homelessness.'

Thinking about the Supreme Court hearing on homelessness and encampments makes me think about this Angela Davis quote - I was reminded it existed when Joshua Turek posted it on his IG story

Nobody uses their blinker anymore and every water bottle I have seems to leak when it’s placed on its side. Those are my complaints for the day.

Here's the thing. I was trying to explain the difference last night between what the law allows and what justice is. The law allows powerful people to use it against less powerful people, usually. The law is not a neutral object. It's humans doing things to other humans.

On my hardest days on the WGA strike line, I reminded myself that people were watching, and I wanted to prove what was possible.

It’s amazing to see what people can do. Congrats to the Volkswagen Workers on your historic victory!!
