Listening to a podcast about the bribery in the American government so corporations can get something from politicians. Then the host does an ad for some company and all I can think about is that bribery. Kinda makes the ad useless.

I’m finally starting to realize that the greatest fear our government has is us all realizing we don’t need it. So they invent villains, ghouls, and ghosts to racketeer us into relying on them. But if we all saw through their inventions we’d realize they’re useless.

📣 New Podcast! "1 May 1886: International Workers Day" on @Spreaker #anniversaries_history #chicago #day #facts_weekly #history #history_historical #history_otd_on #history_weekly #illinois #in #international #lives #may #mayday #news_everyday #stories_daily #this #workers

spreaker.com1 May 1886: International Workers DayToday, May 1, is International Workers' Day! It commemorates the sentencing to death of seven anarchist workers in Chicago who were wrongly convicted for throwing a bomb at police who attacked a strike demonstration in May 1886.  80,000 workers in Chicago had walked out on May 1 demanding a maximum 8-hour working day, alongside over 200,000 other workers across the US. Employers and the government were determined to crush the movement, and four of the anarchists were executed, with the fifth cheating the hangman by killing himself. An eighth was sentenced to 15 years' imprisonment. The surviving three were later pardoned, and the fight for the 8-hour day continued.  Before his execution, defendant August Spies told the court: "if you think that by hanging us you can stamp out the labour movement – the movement from which the downtrodden millions, the millions who toil and live in want and misery, the wage slaves, expect salvation – if this is your opinion, then hang us! Here you will tread upon a spark, but here, and there, and behind you, and in front of you, and everywhere, flames will blaze up. It is a subterranean fire. You cannot put it out." Socialist and workers' organisations later chose May 1 to be celebrated as International Workers' Day, and today it is celebrated as a national holiday in many countries around the world, and an unofficial one in many others.  Learn more about the history of May Day in this podcast episode featuring us make by Upstream, available for our supporters on Patreon.

You know how the word Neutrogena means “Chic Scientist/Science? I was using their face wash and they managed to make it that exact smell. That orange face wash smells like Chic Science. Well, technically I have the off brand so it smells like Regular Scientist in a Chic Fake Mustache. So, close.

Dems get into power, liberals go to sleep. Dems draw blue dicks on liberal’s faces. Election time, liberals wake up to Dems saying Reps will draw red dicks on their faces if they get elected. Liberals fight like hell against red dicks on faces.

A. Philip Randolph, the labor leader who organized the March on Washington & helped desegregate the U.S. military, was born #OTD in 1889. His fight for justice still inspires today. #TheMarchContinues
