Every once in a while I remember that early in the pandemic, UC Davis asked everyone in the UC Davis community to donate PPE from their own labs, which it routed only to UC Davis Health, a not-free medical center. PPE that came out of people's grant money (which UC Davis already skims off of) and sometimes out of people's own money.

I think about this as UC Davis continues to raise fees, pretend the pandemic is over, and drive disabled people out of their jobs and schooling. #UCAccessNow

🗣️ 📣 ARE Y'ALL NOT SEEING THE #FogOfWar?

#Netanyahu meets #ApartheidClyde at #Xitter and then presents a map of #Israel without #Palestine at the #UN. shortly the #Speakergate clown car begins.

how come Netanyahu ignores #Egypt's intel on #HAMAS and just like that GOP not only boots McCarthy, but he goes quietly... for a christofascist to take his place?

the billionaires funding Netanyahu's fascist coup also fund the USA's christian-zionists

this is not a coincidence

From jobs to infrastructure to climate action to inflation reduction, Democrats deliver for ALL Americans.

It's not just Donald Trump.

The #media shares blame for normalizing things that would never be considered normal in a non-failed state.

Friends. I’m seeking advice for my niece.

She’s being asked to take on new responsibilities at her job and wants to be properly compensated. They’re asking her to do Microsoft Access work. Her role isn’t technical and has nothing to do with it. (She’s also a Black woman who doesn’t want to get walked over because of it.)

Does anyone have any advice or info about what compensation looks like for that kind of work? Thanks in advance!
