When I worked as a uni cleaner we had a union and were entitled to sick pay. I claimed it when I became chronically unwell. Over time, hospitality workers at the same uni have had their rights and entitlements eroded. Really good to see this win for them.

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.

Lost Science :(
Today my @nytimes.com colleagues and I are launching a new series called Lost Science. We interview US scientists who can no longer discover something new about our world, thanks to this year‘s cuts. Here is my first interview with a scientist who studied bees and fires. Gift link: nyti.ms/3IWXbiE

This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.
I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

I’m horrified to hear that two people were kidnapped by ICE in Evanston this morning.
There’s a protest at Home Depot shortly. We’ll be delivering water and supplies to protesters — I hope you’ll join us in standing with our community.

Blessed be the doughnut-bearing bunnies
Another reason for hate turned at light hearted protest: they want you on your couch, having your brain being turned into soup while you are comatose watching THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BUMBLEFUCK or HARRY POTTER XXV. They resent a rabbit or a frog going “we make our own entertainment here!”
Really sweet resistance scene outside ICE in Portland of coffee, donuts and morning.

There's an excellent exhibit in the @nationalgalleryirl.bsky.social of words and phrases in Irish for fauna, Tails from the Archive. I think Manchán would have appreciated it.
