Are cherries on your #July4 menu? They come thanks to workers like Pablo who shared this pic from where he was harvesting cherries in Yakima WA. He works piece rate. This means he rushes to pick as many as possible while getting the quality growers require. #WeFeedYou

Theory: Our current political climate comes from the mindset of those who want to speak to the manager because they're unhappy, and are flatly uninterested in understanding why they're unhappy or whether they should be. They just want the manager to "fix it" and thus are willing to empower tyrants.

Hey look, a country with a much better Supreme Court than ours (I won't say Constitution because it's clear our SCOTUS' decisions have nothing to do with the Constitution)

Happy independence day to all who remember why we declared independence and a very fuck off to those who think kings are good actually.

Check out this funky chandelier, original to the church. It is so old that it came around to being cutting edge again.

Dude! Visited the Petäjävesi Old Church, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It’s a wooden church from the 1700s that has not burned down. “All the others burned down, for one reason or another,” our guide informed us resignedly.

just watched 74 people speaking at least a dozen different languages become american citizens in a ceremony at monticello, where the speakers were themselves children of immigrants. inspiring stuff and a vivid illustration of what reactionaries want to snuff out

Labour’s campaign was extremely cautious, and given past defeats I understand why. But now the UK center-left has a huge majority in a system with many fewer choke points than in the U.S. Let’s hope they’re ready to govern like the dominant party they now are

An aspiring dictator & convicted felon w history of treason may win the presidency. Profoundly corrupt SCOTUS justices undermined the constitution and gave him immunity from prosecution for past & future crimes. This is all political journalists should be writing about 24/7. We’re at the precipice.

It's Independence Day, commemorating the day this country kicked a king to the curb. Eternal shame on the six justices on the Supreme Court who betrayed our founding principles by turning the presidency into a new monarchy.

Every day I awake in my creaky body and think "Ugh, I'm so old. I never did anything and now it's too late". Then I see the president and all politicians are over twice my age, and I am filled with optimism and a sense of youth. Our lovely gerontocracy keeps me happy and hopeful.

Live parked on Boylston St waiting for husband. Delivery truck backs up, guy does his thing, stops when husband smacks my door - it's locked. Husband gets in, guy goes back to work. We lock eyes & exchange a subtle nod. Good looking out, sir. I'm okay. Rude guy's with me. 😆 That's how you do it.

The only two pieces of writing advice I consistently give are: 1. Write worse. Lower your standards as much as necessary to get the words on the page. 2. Finish writing before you start editing. It doesn't work for everyone, but it's the only approach that has ever worked for me.

Biden in NC today: "I know I'm not a young man. I don't walk as easy as I used to. I don't speak as smoothly as I used to ... [but] I know how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong. I know how to do this job ... I know like millions of Americans know, when you get knocked down you get back up!"
