If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.
If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.
If you're under 28, the number is 100%.
Happy Labor Day.

I'm looking for contact details for Kirsten Grothe, who did her MSc Zooarchaeology at York. She examined the animal bones from a site of a PhD student and we'd like to include her in a publication. Other avenues to contact her have failed. Does anyone know her and can pass this on???

If you're a white dude with some flexibility in your life, get a group of your like-minded bros together & go to these events to act as counterbalance to these "private security forces." Get in their way. Occupy space. Ask for their IDs. Outnumber them. Make their fascism difficult.

Now I’m not a lawyer but this feels like premeditated malicious intent, or perhaps some legal term that means the same thing.
A remarkable piece of journalism (Oct 2024) from ProPublica, which had uncovered this video from Russell Vought, now OMB director. "We want to put them in trauma," he said, of the federal workers he planned to villainize. www.propublica.org/article/vide...
“Put Them in Trauma”: Inside a Key MAGA Leader’s Plans for a New Trump Agenda
Private videos reveal Trump adviser Russ Vought’s “shadow” plans for using the military on protesters, defunding the EPA and villainizing civil servants.

I am once again asking you to think of an indie bookstore while Barnes and Noble has their preorder sale. I have ~50 books out this year 25% off through February 7th.
We also have no customers in store because of the snow.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

Paying women less is a ploy to ensure it's the woman that has to give up her job when she has a child. Not the better paid man.
