An Amazon worker died in one of Amazon's warehouses. As he lay on the floor dying, management told the other workers: "Just turn around and don't look. Get back to work." That was a human being. A child of God. Sacrificed on the altar of corporate greed.

WHERE ARE MY OUTRAGED LOUISIANA CAJUNS & CREOLES!? This is genocide at work! LOUISIANA, THIS IS WHO YOU VOTED FOR—the people & practices which BRUTILIZED your ancestors, FORCED them from their homes, SHAMED them & their children for GENERATIONS & ROBBED THEM OF THEIR TONGUES, & YOU OF YOUR CULTURE!

Not sure I have the extent of it but it sounds a lot like Trump wanted Carney to ease Canadian French language rules (and enrage Quebec) so the Ellisons could save a buck on localization

Look what love, community, and purpose can do! This is huge inspiration for the Valkyries of the Valko Army. Love & Unity can change the world for the better. #ValkoIsLoved #UnitedForValko #SeaTheChange

I don’t know how Costco consistently hires the most amiable employees &, despite the lines that can happen, also consistently provides one of the best shopping experiences. Perhaps, there is something to this “putting your employees first...” thing. /s www.inc.com/micah-solomo...

inc.comCostco’s $1.50 Hot Dog Isn’t the Secret to Its Success. It’s How It Treats EmployeesCostco's $1.50 hot dog gets all the attention, but the real story is how the company pays and treats its employees.

And also: a shout-out to my colleagues at NPR news. They don’t have the same problem with management/ownership as do journalists elsewhere, but they have been punished by the Admin for their coverage, and remain under threat. Still, as someone once said, they persist. www.npr.org/2026/07/26/n...

npr.orgRage-giving, innovation and cuts: How public media has survived without federal fundsA year after President Trump signed a law ending six decades of federal funding of public media, it's a time of reinvention, innovation and clear anxiety at public tv and radio stations nationwide.

The reasoning here is absurd enough that it should be part of the story: "Supreme Court rules that Trump statements that Haitians 'probably have AIDS,' are 'poisoning the blood of our country,' are 'eating cats and dogs," do not constitute racial animus."

Jameel Jaffer@jameeljaffer.bsky.social

Compare Alito's description of Trump's racist statements (on the left) to Justice Kagan's anthology of Trump's racist statements (on the right). These are passages from this morning's opinions in Mullin v. Doe.

Dems have to run on this hard. Do not let the RFK types try to spin what his own party just signed off on here. Actual Monsanto, the comic book villain of Adbusters days, was shielded from liability over poisoning Americans. I don't care if it's slopulism: this Supreme Court wants you dead.

He’s projecting. The US govt and politicians have bent over backwards to help guys like Bezos. However, Bezos’ m.o. is to devour competition wherever it arises and he views the Fed gov as his #1 competitor. THEY are HIS villain. Not vice versa

NBC News@nbcnews.com

Amazon executive chair Jeff Bezos accuses U.S. politicians of villainizing the ultra-wealthy and using tax policy as a political wedge issue to distract from bigger challenges facing the country.

In addition to being stupid (and that should not be downplayed) this is very revealing about what a certain class of person means when they talk about the economy and whose well-being is not included in its evaluation

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Hassett: "If the war were to be extended, it wouldn't really disrupt the US economy very much at all. It would hurt consumers, and we'd have to think about what we'd have to do about that, but that's really the last of our concerns right now."

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Stephen Miller: "The human rights that we are gonna protect are not of the savages that torture and rape and murder. The human rights we are going to protect are of the peaceable citizens who have an absolute human right to live in physical safety and security every day of their lives."

it drives you insane how much erosion of freedom is justified by concern for kids when the people who actually hurt them will never face consequences

LIbraries are our national treasures. Celebrate them. Support them in every way possible. Make use of them.

As a librarian I endorse this. But you can get sewing machines, projectors, levels, snowshoes and a ton of other stuff you don’t know you need. And you get to show the admin that libraries fill a vital community need. Get your card. Love your library.
