Hey N.O. peoples: how did you guys decide on the tail light thing, and did you have any other good ideas we can steal?

At our local last night we were thinking of projects like that to do, but we are thinking our first one should be "canvas and ask what people actually need".

CLEAT and the CWA separated a while back, I don't understand what he's pointing out. danny worked for cleat a couple years post CWA retirement but was the associated organizer while they were still in CWA.

anyway I don't really give a poo poo about any of that right now. since I'm in a socialist org I'm busy trying to source insurance and an accountant so we can get commercial trucks for relief efforts right now which I didn't expect when we formed the oc a couple years back

In NYC we're talking about turnstile jumping, since that's like...number one for broken windows policing. Technically it isn't illegal to swipe someone into the subway with your unlimited metrocard as you leave, so people are kicking around campaigns around that. There's already "Swipe It Forward" so we might just piggyback on that.

Following is my statement on my departure from Daniel Biss’ ticket:
While I was honored to be chosen as Senator Daniel Biss’ gubernatorial running mate, it became clear over the past few days that while we share a total commitment to peace, security, and statehood for the Israeli and Palestinian people, and both oppose pursuing BDS at the state level, the difference of opinion we have on the role the BDS movement plays at the federal level would make it impossible to continue moving forward as a ticket.
I was asked to join the ticket to even more strongly advocate for the critical issues facing this state, such as Medicare for all, a $15 living wage today, affordable childcare, and free college tuition. While I am no longer part of the ticket, I have every confidence that Senator Biss and I, in our different roles, will continue to be strong advocates for these progressive issues.
I especially want to thank the members and organizational leaders of Reclaim Chicago, Our Revolution IL, and Democratic Socialists of America, and the thousands of activists who have shown their commitment to addressing these critical concerns for their confidence in me, and their continued work on these progressive issues. There is so much work to be done, and I am proud to stand by your side while we continue to build our progressive movement.

The fact that the cops don't even have enough shared perspective with the people they're ostensibly serving to understand why this would be taken poorly shows that we've entered the death spiral phase of the dissolution of this institution.

At least in South Florida currently water and plywood are out in most places. Gas is also at a premium but thankfully we have laws against price gouging so you're just dealing with lines that go for blocks.

for real ELF needs to get in on the leftist resurgence.

side note I thought most wildfires mostly took out forest-overlooking mcmanshions because poor people can't afford to live in scenic areas. Do they also harm poor people or are they actually insanely good?

Harm, smoke is bad for you in high quantities, also plenty of poor people in rural areas are affected by wildfires.

The rich areas are the ones with well funded fire departments and evacuation plans and areas like mine are the ones where the fire department gets overwhelmed and not everyone is notified of evacuation measures.

So no, they're horrible and mostly kill poor people

also the areas eat up municipal resources cuz rich people demand a lot of maintenance work on the land and roads and are happy to siphon funding away from addressing homelessness and w.e for the sake of lowering their fire insurance premiums

honestly it's good carlos got dropped. Biss was going to be a toxic element for him from the beginning. Now he gets a bump, chicago dsa locals are chastened against doing free labor for democrats, and BDS gets a public endorsement from a wildly popular alderman.
