  1. I attended the Mid-Peninsula #Indivisible chapter meeting today in Redwood City. It’s a gathering of such nice and dedicated people. Quite refreshing to see people working for good for a change.

    I’m planning to attend various organizing events around the area, and maybe help out in some way or another. I need to make some community connections!

  6. @aram It's an old story and a mundane one. We patiently, doggedly organized. We got fed up, we decided it was time to form a union. (Crystallized around the administration ordering us back into classrooms in 2021 with no real mask mandate and an overt, cowardly capitulation to a tiny handful of Trumpist anti-vaxxers in the state capitol.)

    A committed core quietly organized for two years. Auditioned a bunch of big internationals. Only SEIU had the resources to take us on: a historically large unit, 5,000+ faculty spread across a dozen campuses around the state. Two more years of quiet behind-the-scenes organizing.

    I got seriously involved over the past year, after we went public. Testifying at the Capitol, talking to media, countless meetings, outreach to students, canvassing almost daily, knocking on colleagues' doors, getting enough cards for an election, and then winning it.

    My spiel was simple: my wife is an academic with the same experience as I have, but she makes a 30% higher salary, and has laughably dramatically extra-galactically better benefits, than I do.

    Like I said, so much more to say, but that's the nut of it.

    Last week we got the results, a 3:1 victory, despite the administration's ham-fisted scare tactics.

  29. I set up a #CMS on a domain and I'm trying to get fellow members of an #organization interested in using it as a central location for information, calendar events, etc. since currently the main point of contact is #Instagram which is... not ideal.

    I'm getting a lot of soft pushback whenever I bring it up and it's kinda getting me down. Does anyone have experience with getting this sort of thing up and running for an org you're a part of?

  39. My late partner Susan DeMarco had the best political advice ever: "Put the party back in politics."

    Democrats traded potlucks for Zoom fundraisers. That's not a movement.

    What would get you to actually show up?

    👉 AI ABOLITION network & strategy meeting #2
    📅 Sunday May 17 at 16:00 - 20:00
    📍Ungdommens Demokratihus, Slagtehusgade 10a, Copenhagen
    🎟️ free please rsvp, details below

    There are many of us who object to the fascist logic of the machine, but we are fragmented and isolated. After a big first gathering last month (we feel already a little less isolated!), we again invite all AI critical and AI abolitionist groups/activists/individuals to our joint networking + strategy meeting in Copenhagen. Newcomers welcome!

    Our aims for the meeting: keep building our network; work towards strategic alignment; establish working groups for concrete actions (AI-free zones, workplace organizing, art installations, ...).

    Our aims beyond the meeting: conscientiously objecting, rejecting, resisting and dismantling AI. If you are reading this message, you're invited to come!

    There will be drinks, snacks, and humans.
