Eight hours for sleep —
Eight hours for work —
Eight hours for WHAT WE WILL!

We fought for time off, fought to be with our families instead of at the beck & call of the boss; we won back some small measure of our time — and rn I feel satisfied in enjoying every bit of the fruits of our labor.

Guys like this mostly steal from workers (this guy overcharges tired mall parents for flavorless kid bribes) — but this particular guy (who’s been arrested for DUI, domestic assault, & sued for revenge porn blackmail) got tired of being cooped up at home & did… this. #RichDick #OKC #COOPBrewery

Pope Francis was a global voice for dignity, justice, and solidarity. His unwavering support for workers' rights and justice for the poor and dispossessed are seeds of a better tomorrow. We may yet see a more bountiful harvest, amongst all the muck. #PopeFrancis #Solidarity #CatholicWorker

I love libraries of every shape and size—public libraries, zine libraries, seed libraries, tool libraries, school libraries and libraries run out of community spaces. If it weren't for the work of librarians, researchers, activists & archivists, so much important movement history would be lost. 📚🖤

It’s tree trimming season. To properly trim your Bradford Pear, use a chainsaw to make a cut on the main trunk, as flush to the ground as possible.

That’s it.

“We are out for Ireland for the Irish. But who are the Irish? Not the rack-renting, slum-owning landlord; not the sweating, profit-grinding capitalist; not the sleek and oily lawyer; not the prostitute pressman – the hired liars of the enemy. 🧵

If Musk and the Trump Administration manage to take a chainsaw to the US Postal Service, which is older than the United States itself, it will hurt all of us.

But y’all know who it’ll really devastate?

My Great-Granddad Jack was a member of the Oklahoma Farmer’s Union. He ranched in Payne, was a member of the McClain County Cattlemen’s Association, served as President of the Rural Electric Cooperative & the McClain County Fair Board. He could sing too!

I love this old “Singing Farmers” songbook.
