I’m doing research for a project and found out about the “don’t buy where you can’t work” movement during the depression, where Black people boycotted and picketed places that wouldn’t hire us. Shout out to everyone who’s not going back to Target!

<p>“Don’t Buy Where You Can’t Work” campaigns of the 1930s used effective direct-action tactics, such as boycotts and picketing. </p>

Like so many others in the fed space, I'm currently looking for new opportunities. My goal is to find a place to land full time, but until then I'm open to short term contracts. Got a CMS project you need architected? A gnarly multi-site content inventory and analysis gig? Give a holler.

@jessliese.bsky.social I noticed we didn’t have departure times in this week’s episode. Do you have any idea why they would do that?

Y’all think you’re old, there were no video games the year I was born. Like the entire concept of a video game was still ten years away.
If you see this, quote skeet with a screenshot from a video game that released the year you were born.

A presidential address about political violence would have made sense in June following the assassination of Rep. Melissa Hortman, the former Minnesota House speaker.
But, she wasn't a Republican.
Instead, tonight, we got this.
It's all so horrifying, and I don't really know what else to say.

The gleeful doxing of someone cheating in public is bad even if they are a CEO and even if they are a Coldplay fan. It's bad because this kind of thing is happening to random people on TikTok for such crimes as "sitting silently on a plane" or "being attractive"

This is 100% true, just as the press spent ZERO time on the attempted mass assassination of the entirety of democratic leadership through pipe bombs just a few years ago. It’s literally never even discussed! A MAGA terrorist tried to kill all of the leading dems!
I can't tell if it's because I'm too NYC focused but does it feel like the news cycle spent more time crashing out on the fact that NYC picked a brown Muslim dude as is primary candidate then it did on a right wing extremist who shot 2 Minnesota legislators killing one, her husband and dog?
