So happy to be down in San Antonio today for the 2025 @texasaflcio.bsky.social Constitutional Convention.
I see workers here waking up to the idea that something better is possible — that unions can make a difference in their lives. It’s time to build a labor movement as big as Texas!

Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.
But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.
See you soon, NYC.

So Starship Ship 36 just detonated *before* the static fire test - fueled and waiting for the test. Looks like the top tank lets go and sets off the whole stack. It would be bad enough if it let go during the static fire test, but it just blew up. And it's cooking off the fuel tanks on the pad.

CDC data is still only dripping out. High level covid, flu, and RSV was released as scheduled today but the weekly not deeper dive into flu (also known as Fluveiw) or ILI (general count of cough and fever). Also still no bird flu MMWRs.
This sure doesn’t seem like freedom to me.

Scenes from day one of the ILA strike, Port of Houston. A few observations:
-ILA locals from along the Texas coast showed up in solidarity despite brutal heat
-Estimated 1,000+ folks present
-Multiple ILA members told me "you should get a job here," and almost everyone was proud of the work they do

I’ve always loved libraries. Elementary-aged me was on the right path all along.
Libraries are one of the most radical social institutions we have, because they’re based on the idea that *everyone* has the right to information, for free. It’s also what makes them crucial to democracy. I will never stop yelling about this!
Poor people use libraries. Rich people shut them down because they don't *want* poor people to read.
