local pol, teacher strike
oh hey this is late but the LA teacher's strike won:
- a mandatory cap on class sizes at every grade level
- hiring full time nurses at every school
- a librarian hired at every middle and high school by next year
- 50% reduction in frequency of standardized test assessments
- a hard cap on number of charter schools
- 6 percent pay raise
this contract was ratified by an overwhelming majority of the union. these changes will benefit not only the teachers, but every student in the city public school system.
STRIKES. WORK.

Brexit, humor
Best line of the day, seen on a forum I frequent:
“We're witnessing a reenactment of the "I'm altering the deal" scene from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, with Mr. Bean playing the part of Darth Vader.”

i work on social media a lot throughout the day (ugh) and like, I'm realizing something maybe obvious about generational conflict.
I think baby boomers might be best characterized by an adversarial lifestyle. Not even just the big stuff or by being openly hateful. I mean like, they consider success as a "victory." Being the toughest, the smartest, the most wily.
And that's my explanation for why old people are so obsessed with getting away with abusing coupons. Thank you and goodnight

Oh hey! #Sentry, my employer, has an Open Source grant that you can apply for: https://blog.sentry.io/2019/01/29/apply-sentry-open-source-grant
"Contributing to open source full-time is an opportunity not available to everyone. We’d like to change that with the Sentry Open Source Grant, which offers funding to an individual dedicated to working on an open source project for three months."

Wise words.
My people don't talk about it. We be about it. No justice, no peace.

@Chel I want to see the onion
cold, clinical interpretations of data fall short of effective outcomes when they're applied to the human situation
simple cost benefit calculations are the lifeblood of authoritarian, capitalist regimes and should not be considered an effective way to make decisions in any environment where lives can be altered and suffering is possible
i need to ban "facts not feelings". it keeps getting thrown at me with the implication that i'm somehow hysterical.
there's this strange idea that facts are these immutable truths that can be trusted and relied on. but, facts without interpretation are often line noise when you're using them to look at complex situations.
it isn't hysterics to ask "what do the facts mean in the broader picture". it's nuance.
if i display emotions while thinking, this doesn't erase the validity of my arguments

what you say: the art market is saturated!
what i hear: capitalism has utterly failed at satisfying the need of humans to self actualize

It has only now come to my attention that Vanity Fair once photographed Debbie Harry in armor.
The management would like to apologise for this lapse.
