As Contract Negotiations Drag On, Texas Starbucks Workers Have Learned the Power of Organizing “We have an in everywhere. It's not hard to talk to other people that do the same thing that you do on a daily basis, and oftentimes they have the same grievances that you do."

573 baristas in 29 Starbucks stores in Texas are unionized. And it’s growing. @sbworkersunited.org

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
This ain't no fooling around
No time for dancing, or lovey dovey
I ain't got time for that now

How to Write a Poem in a Time of War BY JOY HARJO You can’t begin just anywhere. It’s a wreck. Shrapnel and the eye Of a house, a row of houses. There’s a rat scrambling From light with fleshy trash in its mouth. A baby strapped to its mother’s back Cut loose. Soldiers crawl the city,

Two hooded figures with lamps approach a moonlit, isolated cottage. A woman answers the door. We have come for the child, says the hooded figure So soon? she asks It is time, says the hooded figure. The woman is distraught. We should never have got him a library card! What is done cannot be undone, says the hooded figure We couldn’t see the harm! We just wanted him to enjoy reading! For most, it ends there, says the hooded figure, turning away and walking into the wilderness Oh lord, What have I done! says the woman, the child walks past her and out into the darkness with them. Do not cry mother. I am a writer now.

One side obsession from my research into the 1920s is the extensive network of ELECTRIC trains that used to connect cities and towns across the central Midwest called the Interurban. We had this more than a hundred years ago. The things we had and the things we lost.

The trolley problem meme but some of the people are holding back the trolley while others are untying people from the tracks

I don't think the image would be a good tattoo but the words

Beautiful cloth napkins tucked in like a bib while eating should come back in style!
