"I drew this last November 26th knowing full well no self-respecting family newspaper in the country would be likely to print it. I was right. But given the events of this weekend, I’m gonna to let ‘er rip anyway."

Today in Labor History December 1, 1914: The famous labor song, "Solidarity Forever," was written on this date by IWW songwriter Ralph Chaplin. He wrote the song for a hunger march to be led by Lucy Parsons in Chicago (on January 17, 1915).

To quote #UtahPhillips, "The earth is not dying, it is being killed, and those who are killing it have names and addresses."

#NIN - My Violent Heart (Pirate Robot Midget Mix)

"You and I, we may look the same
But we are very far apart
There's bullet holes where my compassion used to be
And there is violence in my heart

Into fire you can send us
From the fire we return
You can label us a consequence
Of how much you have to learn

You can try but you'll never understand
This is something you will never understand
Can you hear it now?
Hear it coming now?
Can you hear it now?

On hands and knees, we crawl
You cannot stop us all
Our bonеs, our skin
We will not let you in

You have sеt something in motion
Much greater than you've ever known
Standing there in all your grand naivety
About to reap what you have sown
(Hand—)
Time will feed upon your weaknesses
And soon you'll lose the will to care
When you return to the place that you call home
We will be there
We will be there

On hands and knees, we crawl
You cannot stop us all
Our blood will stay
We will not go away

On hands and knees, we crawl
You cannot stop us all
Our blood, our grace
Will never leave this place"

My Fediverse Advice:

* Follow more people. No, even more people than that. Basically, if you find a real person and their posts are good follow 'em
* If you get a good reply to a post boost it. If you make a good reply to a post boost it. Replies are not visible in the feed unless you do this. As long as the post is an OK start to a conversation or interesting boost it.
* Write thoughtful replies. And if you put effort into a reply boost it or probably only the people tagged will see it.

One way this election affects me personally is that I could lose my health insurance through the ACA, which has allowed me to be self-employed all these years. For a refresher on what healthcare was like for freelancers pre-ACA, see this autobio comic from 2012. https://kffhealthnews.org/multimedia/open-letter-to-supreme-court-cartoon/
