INSUBORDINATOR!
PATCO Class of ‘81. I used to talk to airplanes. Then I used to fly them. Now I write about them. Still union strong after all these years.

Unprecedented corruption. Everyone gets a taste.
Here you have Sec Lutnick as Commerce Secretary and his oldest son, Kyle Lutnick, involved in exactly the same AI data center deal. Dad as government official. Son as financial deal maker--earning the family-controlled company millions in fees. Both this summer.

Conde Nast -- great work was being done for you. What you are doing to Teen Vogue and its journalist is despicable. Readers and consumers will not forget.
It’s been a pleasure working with Lex and everyone in the politics vertical at Teen Vogue. I’m heartbroken that my column, Disability Visibility, is gone. Teen Vogue was one of the few places that published disabled journalists regularly. I just spent the last 2 months working on my next column
I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

ICE visited my upscale PNW burb recently. Why? They didn't come here by chance, in their stupid cars and LARPerwear. They disappeared 3 people. I want to know: who are the COLLABORATORS?
All across America, there must be collaborators -- and they're our neighbors. They need to be named and shamed.

Wrote this in The Sirens Call about mass shootings as the darkest, most violent form of extreme trolling and think it likely applies here as well.

A legal permanent resident researching cures for Lyme disease has been detained by immigration officials for over a week.
He has reportedly been denied access to an attorney and his family has not been given a reason for his detention.
We cannot become immune to this cruelty.

Gavin Newsom & Tim Walz -- here's some fresh material for you. Apparently NO ONE ELSE in the Dem Party speaks for us atm.
I have to say that the inability for any Democrat, any comedian, any local clerk, anarchist, community newspaper... the inability of ANYONE to shame Trump out of doing this why he terrorizes our neighbors speaks to a psychic break in our collective mind that demands immediate repair.
🚨New: “Trump Org Keeps Bringing In Foreign Workers To Staff Its Clubs And Winery”
It’s sought to import 1,880 foreign workers since 2008, per Labor Dept. records—including 31 farm workers for its vineyard this year.

In a moment of melancholy, I'm thinking about those I really admire: the family that takes in another who needs help, those volunteering at their church's soup kitchen, the teacher who stays late for the kid who needs it, and so many who really see others and offer dignity & help
