Good night, queen
Sinead O'Connor, dead at 56
In 1992, Sinead O'Connor tore a picture of Pope John Paul II in half during a performance on SNL in protest against generations of abuse toward children within the Catholic church.
Bless you, Sinead.
Welcome to Heaven.
Today in Labor History July 26, 1894: President Grover Cleveland created a Strike Committee to investigate the causes of the Pullman strike and the subsequent walkout by the American Railway Union, led by Eugene Debs. After four months, the commission absolved the strikers and placed the blame entirely on Pullman and the railroads for the conflict. Roughly 250,000 workers participated in the strike. And an estimated 70 workers died, mostly at the hands of cops and soldiers. To appease workers, the government came up with a new holiday, Labor Day, to commemorate the end of the Pullman Strike. However, President Cleveland had other interests in creating the new holiday. Rather than rewarding workers, his goal was to bury the history of the Haymarket Affair and the radical anarchist and socialist history of the labor movement by choosing any day other than May 1 as the new national labor holiday.

Good morning. Hard and honest discussions yesterday. Mom will be going to a rehab for a brief period of time once discharged from the hospital, today or tomorrow.
Husband + I headed home last night to regroup, as my sister came back after a few days break. I'll head back up in a few days. We're trying to pace ourselves.
I hope everyone has the chance to take a small break from the challenges you are facing. Peace.

I am so grateful for Mastodon and the people I am getting to know. It is kind of remarkable that we all take some time out of our lives to share and interact on a regular basis.
I have been overwhelmed by the kindness of people here. I feel connected to a community of good people that value each other's humanity. That support is precious, something I've never experienced on any other platform. So I want to say thank you. You matter and you have helped just by being here. ♥️
