Union members at ACLU-DC have been fighting for close to 3 years for our first contract. This is unacceptable. We’re united in our demands for work-life balance, fair pay, and worker protections. Hear from our members firsthand on why we need a fair contract now. Union rights are civil rights.
Checking under boxes is beyond the scope of work, to be negotiated in the next contract
Although I will say that my favorite journal article of mine thus far was the recipient of very generous line edits from Sergio Sismondo at SSS. But that's remarkable for its rarity. I was so happy it got an honorable mention for an award named after an editor because Sergio is just the best.
Lord it is so nice to write for a magazine and actually get my prose edited
Got a two factor, it's better than one
Yes
Right the only people who hate that other people work on the computer...also work on the computer
A ground invasion of Iran would make Vietnam look like Grenada
Though as I understand it, war gaming is of course gay now and has been replaced with call of duty streams
So is where I feel the need to remind folks that the selective service system still exists.
But in practice, yeah. Super-lazy back-of-the-envelope, holding all of Iran might require c. 600,000 ground troops. (~3x our max Iraq deployment).

Ding ding ding ding (also New York, SF, Miami, Austin...)
I read it in a sort of Hannibal Lecter voice
Markwayne Mullin is working with working class people insofar as he hunts them for sport on his dad's farm
Dawg if "working with working class people" means "employing them" then that's the whole dang senate. Nancy was working with working class people when she doordashed that dang ice cream

Lasting peace demands a century of American humiliation
I held this post up to the light.
Sort of a slur wave
Salisbury University (Maryland's eastern shore) has a young republicans group that's bringing Jared Taylor, publisher of American Renaissance and one of the more important white supremacists of the 1990s and 2000s, to campus. The org seems to largely be the street team of one influencer.
The YouTube channel Milestones: A Miles Davis Archive does exactly what it says on the bottle btw. Now playing a 1966 concert with herbie et al at the oriental theater in Portland
Today I Will Look The Burrito Man In The Eye and other stories of manifesting success
Im moderately hopeful the generation after the zoomers will check out of it all. My daughter likes Pokémon or whatever but mocks us whenever she sees us on our phones "oh are you getting likes? How many likes are you getting?" Humiliating.
Oh much worse: where they watch other people read posts about the news
They're not even AFL members!
Algorithmic filter bubble???
Hey this is like the most serious oil guy i know and this is worse than i expected
I don't think it's what they set out to do but I think this is one way of reading Farrell and Newman's book. Laura DeNardis and friends also have a cool new collection called Geopolitics at the Internet's Core
