Conservatives say raising the minimum wage would drive up inflation.

But the federal minimum wage hasn't gone up since 2009.

Average CEO pay has gone up about 60% since 2009.

Who's pay is contributing to inflation?

always a good sign when your administration has to clarify how its new policy is different from the former openly fascist/nationalist administration's policies

Today’s the anniversary of one of the darkest moments in US immigration history, the day that the MS St. Louis, a ship full of German Jewish refugees, was turned back to Germany from Miami. Hundreds of the passengers were killed in Hitler’s death camps.

Today, Joe #Biden blocks asylum seekers from the US

I know $12 USD is a lot of money for some people, so to celebrate 1000+ sales (!!!), I'm giving away 1000 PDF copies of How Git Works (honour system: only if $12 is a lot for you!)

Here's the link, enter code BUYONEGIVEONE at checkout to get a free copy https://wizardzines.com/zines/git/

(it'll ask you for a billing address but you can enter a fake address if you'd prefer)

I was going to post “the 1000 free copies of How Git Works for folks who can't afford it have all been claimed, I'll release more when we sell 2000 copies"

But then I went to check this morning and we've already sold 2000 copies of the zine??? So I guess we're giving away another 1000 copies now. https://wizardzines.com/zines/git/

Watching H5N1 extend its host range, now show respiratory symptoms in a human case, should concern us all. We are whistling past the graveyard, not remotely prepared for what comes next. Perhaps H5N1 will not acquire the mutations necessary to ensure efficient human-to-human transmission, but counting on good fortune is not a strategy.

Can we bury the myth that Israel’s siege on Gaza is over hostages? Even the hostage families are telling us Netanyahu has no desire to secure the hostages. Believe them, and stop arming Israeli war crimes.

That’s what every person committed to justice has been screaming for the last 8 months.

Y'ALL.
FINALLY.

MY NEWEST BOOK IS OUT. 😃🥳🎶💃😁

THE ACCURSED is my first ever solidly YA fantasy novel & I am SO excited to share this adventure with you!

Teen heroine Elfled is the only "unBlessed" member of her family--never a problem until they flee political persecution. Without magical skills to see her through, Elfled has only wits & hopes in her fight to resist the forces driving her squarely into Evil's lair.

So what do you call this level of hatred? This fanatical desire to annihilate an entire civilisation?

Know any NYC students, or their parents?

The mayor closed the libraries on Sundays, and is set to close them Saturdays too -- citing budget constraints 📚

The budget's being debated right now!

So, if you live in NYC?

Here's a form that'll auto-send a letter to your city councillor telling them to vote to "keep the libraries open sundays": https://actionnetwork.org/letters/open-the-libraries-nyc/

Forward it to any students in NYC 🤘

Parents can use it too -- just rewrite the opening salutation to say "I'm a parent"

Blinken on ICC Warrants for:
•Putin: "Anyone who's a party to the ICC and has obligations should fulfill their obligations & turn over Putin."

•Netanyahu: "US rejects the ICC prosecutor’s application for arrest warrants for Israeli officials & Hamas."

Biden on ICC Warrants for:
•Putin: "The ICC warrants against Putin make a very strong point. He's clearly committed war crimes."

•Netanyahu: "The ICC prosecutor’s application for arrest warrants against Israeli leaders is outrageous."

Wierd that the GOP that was so concerned with antisemitism on college campuses a week ago has nothing to say about Nazi references in Trump campaign social media posts.

Like if you wrote this into a movie you'd be called antisemitic because it would be antisemitic, but its reality. So now the antisemetic right will jump all over this as a reason to persecute all Jewish people. These Zionists are the fkin worst.

FYI: the problem is Colonial Capitalism, not the fact that some members of the Colonial Ruling Class are Jewish.

Microsoft's jaw-dropping nauseous greenwashing

Microsoft’s AI Push Imperils Climate Goal as Carbon Emissions Jump 30%

The company’s goal to be carbon negative by 2030 is harder to reach, but President Brad Smith says the good AI can do for the world will outweigh its environmental impact.

Ah, Brad, Brad, pull the other one, fella. Maybe for once in your life could you be honest? It's the good AI will do your stock price. That's all you care about.
