The strike on Tesla worked. Elon went running scared back to his board, like the weak ballsack he is. We can boycott the mega corporations that fund this regime. We have the power.

I think we should do mega corporation boycott until ICE is abolished. Those corporations are making this all possible. And they're destroying our communities
Amazon is planning a 2nd round of job cuts next week as part of its broader goal of trimming some 30k corporate workers, according to two people familiar with the matter.

The only thing these monsters listen to is money. How do we organize a huge boycott of the mega corporations funding this regime? Amazon, meta, target, private equity owned assets, and so on. @katmabu.bsky.social @adamkinzinger.substack.com @aoc.bsky.social #generalstrike #boycott

I've never worked with a Nobel winner, but I know folks who have. I'm pretty sure that when you receive a Nobel prize, they give you a bunch of medals. So you can share them with the people who helped you with your research... or as a bribe to a petty dictator.

If you live in Chicago and have never taken the holiday train, what are your waiting for?! Every part is decorated. Even the arrival signs have little candy canes. And you get to see adults worn out from a day at work trying to pretend like they haven't notice it is the holiday train. Pure joy!
Santa Claus is coming to town 🎅
The iconic Allstate CTA Holiday Train will merrily roll along all eight rail lines this season, launching from the Midway Orange Line station Friday, November 28.

@durbin.senate.gov please don't do this. I used to be so proud to have you as my senator. Please, do the right thing for your constituents. I would rather not fly ever again in my life if it meant my neighbors had access to healthcare.
