Teachers should quit en masse.

Meh, happened with the boomers. This whole country is designed at every level to stifle progress in left wing thought.

I spent my 9/11 learning that insurance aint covering the surgery I need on my tailbone and the only surgeon that will do it will only do it two days before I was supposed to fly to my family for thanksgiving vacation and recovery involves no sitting. So no thxgiving this year, no seeing family, all PTO is going towards recovery, and I'm paying out of pocket (putting in on credit, there's nothing in the pocket). Oh an no refunds on the flight ticket even with medical emergency. Happy 9/11!

5 years ago, Trump privitized pork inspection. This is the result of letting the industry regulate itself.

His insights are sooooo boilerplate yet he absolutely insists on being some outsider thinker. He literally just sounds like teenaged me after watching a season of Penn & Teller Bullshit.

He writes very beautifully; I wish he did novels.

My workplace, a library in a red state, might seriously be going on strike soon. The board has been invaded by rightoids and they're floating the idea of introducing a content rating system for the books (its rightoids going after libraries like you've seen) that obviously is in bad faith and will be used to ban LGBT content, left wing theory, etc. We have multiple librarians threatening to quit, and at our morning meeting our director starting talking about a work stoppage. The (open to the public) board meeting is tomorrow night, and if things go bad, its probably strike time. The old lady librarians have actually had enough of right wing bullshit and are ready to risk their incomes, it's actually happening folks.

I'm just looking for general advice on doing this stuff. Like what should I prepare, who if anybody should I contact (for support)? We are not union.

 

Totally normal! honk honk
