Reworked a poem I wrote.
What had happened has forced me into this opportunity to truly assess what I want and need out of life and the figure out steps to get there. I find myself in this loop every few years. Constant change, constant death, constant rebirth, constant fresh start.

When will we learn that idol worship will only ever lead to disappointment?
Give praise where it’s due but remember they are not your savior.
No Gods - No Masters

After my firing, a regular set me up with a job interview at another coffee shop. I entertained the idea because I’m obviously going to eventually need another job and I would love to stay in coffee.. only to discover they are wanting me to rescue + they are definitely MAGA coded.

I have spent the last few weeks mourning the loss of a radical community space. I spent 2 weeks being ridiculed by the public for speaking out. This is probably going to affect how I find a job in this town..

I was fired after speaking out against unsafe work conditions, health code violations, and organizing the workers to confront our boss.. in the middle of a government shutdown down where benefits are canceled.

This strike matters and so do the workers, whether or not the big national media outlets think so!

Liberals, during the year after losing an election: the left is 100% responsible for this, their third party votes brought our ruination
Liberals, at all other times: the left is tiny and insignificant and we don't need them or their votes, they should start their own party and leave us tf alone

I constantly worry about being able to provide for my family and keeping them safe. I’ve been employed steadily for 20+ years and we’ve built a life and it’s still something I know could all go away with a couple bad months. I feel so bad when I see this happening to others.

Ever since leaving meta, I’ve had to endure the duality of a relief and suffering. The weight having been lifted from my mental health but also the feeling of displacement on the internet and feeling quite lonely.

I wish all that money and energy around corporate DEI had been funneled into labor organizing, strike funds, and worker education instead; that’s how you actually change a workplace

Our parks are in chaos. We’ve seen firsthand how Trump’s hiring freeze, the rescinding of hundreds of job offers, and the layoff of 5% of NPS staff have left us overwhelmed and short-handed.
