check out the other feeds that @why.bsky.team has on their profile - i also like quiet posters!
(i didn’t realize this either but) following is chronological filtered to people you follow, latest you follow is “for each person you follow, grab their latest post”
it’s a very PEMDAS type of difference
just in case you or somebody else is new here, you can do that here

how about for reducing organizational hierarchy? 😄
pirates were always woke, fun fact
new bedford!!!
nvm found this! the functionality i have in mind is something like “include leaflet posts”, which i’d implement as just also reading those records (rather than a onetime import/copying records, if possible)

is there already an option for syncing / showing @leaflet.pub posts? i have a few there, so it would be nice if those showed up in both places!
Over in the Florida panhandle: between the US house and both FL state chambers, there are three candidates in the congressional Dem primary and two in the primary for the state house seat but nobody running against the incumbent State Senator.
Given, the district (FL 2) was roughly R+50, but still.
oh i love the rant, you’re preaching to the choir 😄

no, the concept of a self is not a recent western invention
bro has never heard of the buddha apparently
it reads like a collection of essays, which it is - Debt and Dawn of Everything are both much more comprehensive IMO.
That blog post will probably be even more well received then, they take his critique a good step further 😄
There was also this post I read recently, being halfway through Graeber’s Utopia of Rules (which circles a left-critique of bureaucracy) it’s a nice conglomerate of both perspectives from Graeber and MOTL
there’s also @moneyontheleft.bsky.social that has some interesting takes
came here to recommend Graeber’s Debt, was not disappointed that the first two replies already did
I think legislation like this could be extremely helpful when it comes to employers changing hands as well. Employees ought to have the right of first refusal over their workplaces.
For anyone who may have missed it, NYC passed COPA, a Community Opportunity to Purchase Act, allowing orgs like community land trusts a right of first refusal when multifamily buildings are sold. Neat!

Fun lil lit review on the topic of unions and worker-coops interacting, next up is learning more about this USW-Mondragón union coop model

I just want an economy of coops, personally
What if unions bargained for ownership of their employers, became ESOPs, and slowly turned their companies into cooperatives?
Extremely cool recent happenings out of Fort Collins, CO!
To figure out how to rezone an old stadium, they convened a civic assembly, with some great results!

“Bernie Blackout” is about the 2020 primary, but still worth a watch. It’s a Vice documentary showcasing how many stops the establishment pulled out to stop his run for the presidency.
“The sun may have set over our city this evening, but as Eugene Debs once said, I can see the dawn of a better day for humanity.”
