Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract.

Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

Of all the days we need to value is Remembrance Day. History of lived experience and not winning propaganda are lessons that we seem to be forgetting.

Money influence in government has led to extractive business models that are the curse of this age. www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/7cadca4...
Can we go back to the optimism of the 1990s, before the extraction economy took over?
Our economic system benefits only those at the very top – but it’s not too late for change

Read about WHY Ketanji Brown Jackson stayed the SNAP order. Her move is probably the best solution for getting SNAP benefits approved quickly. open.substack.com/pub/stevevla...

A very quick explainer on what (and why) Justice Jackson issued an "administrative stay" in the SNAP case late on Friday night, and on what's likely to happen next

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

📌 Keep sharing videos, everyone, because they’re evidence.

Never take seriously those who ridicule low income people for having a smartphone or laptop.

“If they’re so poor how did they buy an iPhone???”

Because they’re trying to escape poverty, not the 1700s, genius. If you think basic tech access is luxury, survive a month without it.

All our cultural items like the internet, music, movies etc would disappear tomorrow due to an IT crisis. Yet we can still see the work of some dude who used his finger to create art on a cave wall 4,000 years ago. I don't think we've come as far as we think we have.

Kudos to Albertans who showed up to speak up for our valuable environment that gives us life when its preserved. If you haven’t heard about this cause in the limited news cycle - check out their newsletter.

Numerous basins in Alberta are experiencing water shortage advisories, which can affect lots more than just drinking water. A lack of sustainable water sources can cause farmers to lose crops, or livestock/wild animals going without.

What is even more horrifying is seeing all the people walking by and ignoring the cries of a woman instead of collectively shaming and questioning the men.
I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

Patriarchy provides a selection of life paths to CHOOSE FROM.

The matriarchal system provides space and guidance as you CREATE YOUR OWN.

I think I am still running on adrenaline. It has been a whirlwind of a 90 day campaign.
But it is you, Albertans, who shined.

Yes, we received nearly half a million signatures, but we also built a #ForeverCanadian movement, a community.

Thank you!
