  • Mamdani's statement on operation Al Aqsa Flood and the Israeli response

    “This day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. We grieve alongside our many friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss. The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government’s devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians—including more than 21,000 children. Even since the so-called ceasefire, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. That suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone strike targeting a residential building or journalist, and every shipment of food aid turned away at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers are reckoning with this unbearable grief, and we mourn alongside them – all while knowing that our tax dollars fund these war crimes. Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity, and our federal government continues its complicity with every arms shipment. To honor the dead, we must fight for a world in which every person can live with freedom, safety, and dignity.”

  • managers have the right to admit to their own fuckups as freely as they like. They get to be “humble” in a sense, because they generally don’t face consequences. When they do, it’s never extreme. Most of the time their servants can fix their mistakes. Indeed, we are the ones urging them to fix their behavior, to follow the law, to apply their own rules. But a non PMC employee is always one mistake away from getting canned. To play humble as a worker, then, is a fool’s errand. This is the invisible perk of humility afforded to management.

    anyways, I’ve (for now at least) settled an informal wage theft dispute. apparently a daily unpaid lunch break is required and it’s automatically taken from my paycheck. I’ve also been told that I’m expected to take this lunch break as soon as I clock in, at 3:30 in the morning. That’s good news actually, because that’s when I’m supposed to attend those stupid fucking meetings. They shouldn’t mind then when I miss it tomorrow because I was eating “lunch.”
