β€œBut what deeply troubles me now is that for all the steps we've taken toward integration, I've come to believe that we are integrating into a burning house."Β 

Dr. King said this famous quote on March 27th, 1968, mere days before his murder. But the context around the quote is interesting...

This is gonna make me take the x220 off the shelf. I held off for a long time before moving to a Framework. It's nice, but it does not "spark joy" in the same way, as they say.

Boston
In 1894, Boston students became some of the first in the country to be fed in school. This was the work of the New England Kitchen: a laboratory open to the public. Started in 1890, the Kitchen used and promoted the latest technology and scientific knowledge of nutrition in preparing lunches and takeout dinners for immigrant workers. The Boston public school system hired the Kitchen, with its centralized space for food preparation, to make lunches for several poor schools.
Within a year, the Kitchen was serving 5,000 students each day. In 1907, the Women's Educational and Industrial Union took over the work of serving lunch for 15 schools, offering meals such as black bean soup, creamed celery and toast, and lettuce sandwiches to Boston's learners.

I need to learn more about the New England Kitchen!

If the developers are to be believed that this community benefit agreement was their final offer, I am curious what the "No" voters would have liked to see happen next. I haven't been able to see where the city had the leverage, and the benefits agreement is honestly better than I expected it to be.

A pie chart shows the results of an opinion poll question.

The question: "Do you agree with the Lancaster City Council's 6-1 vote to approve the community benefits agreement with the owners of two proposed data centers?"

The results:
10.0% Yes
40.0% No
50.0% Not sure

It looks like you inspired a few to vote!

Navigation does not need to share an interface with climate controls.

I would think that limited options for audio and communication would be a feature, not a limitation, to many who like this post.

Well, in this case people who know what they’re doing with computers were able to identify a bad fake made by others who knew less about what they were doing. No one has seen anything other than the single circulated screenshot. Don’t take the bait.

Teen Vogue's Closure and the Quiet Defunding of Worker Consciousness Teen Vogue’s shutdown marks more than a media loss. This is a warning about how profit-driven consolidation quietly dismantles worker awareness and voice.

β€œSince 2018, labor columnist Kim Kelly brought the labor beat to teenage readers through her β€œNo Class” column, covering everything from wildcat strikes to general strikes, the Gilded Age labor organizer Mother Jones to contemporary Amazon warehouse conditions.” πŸ’” thisislaborwise.com/teen-vogues-...

Kodak Quietly Begins Directly Selling Kodak Gold and Ultramax Film Again Kodak appears to be taking back control over the distribution of its film.

this is very cool: Kodak quietly relisted Kodak Gold and Ultramax on its website and confirmed to me it is selling the films directly to photography stores again. this is a big deal because for the last decade, Kodak has not controlled distribution of its own film

The need for food is especially dire, as Pennsylvania’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits are expected to run dry this Saturday. As of September, 55,000 people in Lancaster County, or about 1 in 10 residents, were enrolled in the SNAP program.

Inside the Clunky Elections to Control Pennsylvania's Supreme Court - Bolts The GOP is making an expensive push to end Democrats’ majority on a court at the center of election lawsuits, sparking a fledging campaign season with little precedent or template.

If Dems win the Supreme Court races in Pennsylvania in 9 days, it’s extremely likely the GOP can’t get a majority on that court until 2029.

The GOP really wants to have this majority during the 2028 presidential race.

Can’t put the stakes any more clearly than that. boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

Caterpillar paid for it, but they’re using Volvo’s to demolish it. Not even getting any product placement out of it. Bad deal.

Saw parks in both Philly and NYC this summer with sections blocked off. Both cases it was some string and an informational sign about giving the grass a break. This doesn’t feel like that.
