To win on our core four issues – wages, health care, retirement, and time off the job – we need to be as organized as the billionaire class and elect UAW champions.

UNC-CH Will ‘Scrap’ New Recording Policy, Chancellor Says The move comes less than three weeks after the controversial rules were enacted.

Congrats to @ncaaup.bsky.social & all who fought against this surveillance policy that would've allowed admin to hijack microphones in the classroom for secret recordings.

This move would've chilled classroom discussion & suppressed students' willingness to ask questions & take intellectual risks.

It is completely reasonable to email your dean and/or Provost to ask what is being done at your university to stop this from happening to your students

it's 2016: north carolina introduces a bill to ban trans people from using bathrooms safely. there's a national outcry; companies withdraw business up to and including the NCAA cancelling a publicized game. the bill fails.

it's 2026: kansas passes a law nullifying trans people's licenses. crickets.

Surprise! There's a Board of Governors meeting *today* at 4pm, in McGregor Memorial Conference Center. Sorry for the short notice, it was just posted yesterday (link below). Attend if you can, please.

Local zoning is the way! A lot of these are being stopped or stalled by neighborhood organizing.

These warehouses often need to be purchased, permitted, approved for occupancy and specs. Each one of those steps can be interrupted.

Ppl are pressuring corps not to sell, counties to deny permits, etc

@nathithehumbleguy on threads: 
Ladies if you're always walking around with earphones or headphones on whether jogging or at the mall don't be surprised if no one approaches you. Most guys won't ask you to take them off just to start a conversation.
Sometimes you might be blocking more than just the noise

"We owe conspiracy theorists a huge apology"

No we fucking don't. They were talking about a secret conspiracy of gay trans Jewish lizard people. The Epstein files uncovered a conspiracy of rich, straight, white, right-wing Christian men, which these motherfuckers never even considered.

Turns Out There Was Voter Fraud in Georgia—by Elon Musk The state board of elections found Musk’s PAC sent prefilled ballot applications.

The story that Elon Musk committed voter fraud has gotten next to no coverage -- one of those things you can't make come up on a Google search.

But I think it's time for Dems to go on offensive abt right wing coddling of this immigrant interfering in our elections.

Would he be proud that the stingray was the CFO, or disappointed that it was for a casino?

But Steve would want us to leave the stingray alone.

He didn't say anything about the CFO, though.

Congrats to Columbia AAUP on successfully standing up against ICE recruitment on campus.

Let's keep organizing and go all out to get ICE off our campuses.

Even if platforms receive a subpoena or valid legal request, they can only hand over the data that they have.

(This is why encrypted messaging platforms like Signal are so great. Even when they get a legal demand they have almost no data to hand over.)

DHS can't do much with your burner email

Homeland Security Wants Social Media Sites to Expose Anti-ICE Accounts

The Department of Homeland Security is flooding social media platforms with subpoenas demanding they unmask the people behind anti-ICE accounts.

This crackdown on speech shows EXACTLY why online age verification laws are so dangerous.

Here's why: 🧵

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

This is the cultural rot at the core of ICE. Hurt people and then make shit up to cover your ass. You can’t retrain or reform this. You have to abolish it.

Be aware: Next month, discord will require your ID or a webcam face scan to access NSFW content. Don't.

ICE is making a database of faces and IDs of discord users who have expressed any anti-ICE sentiment and ideology they disagree as an excuse to assault, arrest, deport or hurt those people.

The GOP’s Voter Integrity Sham Make the Republicans hell bent on passing the SAVE Act put money where their mouths are.

I just applied for a passport renewal. The cost was $149 including postage. Requiring a passport or similar proof of citizenship to vote is thus a poll tax. The SAVE Act before the Senate asks to do just that.

Call your Senators at 202-224-3121 and tell them NO SAVE ACT

So cool to see the GVSU board decide to not tell people about public hearings until the day before the deadline, double their debt, and move this 45 minutes away from campus, just so they can build an AI center
