For the first time since northern giant hornets were detected in Washington, we have not found any hornets this year! But we still need two more consecutive years of no detections before they would be considered eradicated and public reports remain critical to detecting them.

My one contribution is I noticed that Nemik's quote about his manifesto and the space sextant being "theory and practice" was similar to this one xitter.cf/zwstein/status/1391605…

The people have spoken and wowww good choice. “When I asked Mr. Johnson how the union succeeded...he pulled out a dog-eared copy of V.I. Lenin’s What is to be Done and a box of shotgun shells, and said, ”Theory and practice.” -Hammer and Hoe

On Sunday morning, a string of faulty decorative lights hung on a Christmas tree caught fire in a home at the 3000 block of NW 63rd St. Fortunately, no one was hurt. The estimated loss is $100,000. Below is a photo of the burnt tree. Safety tips: fireline.seattle.gov/2022/12… – at Seattle, WA

Wow, @crimethinc was suspended and there's a *very* sketchy smell about it: crimethinc.com/2022/11/25/el…

Elon Musk Bans CrimethInc. from Twitter at the Urging of Far-Right Troll

At the urging of a far-right troll, Elon Musk banned the @crimethinc Twitter account—a partisan move paving the way for fascist violence.

How many police showed up to stand with students at the City Hall protest after the Ingram High shooting? It’s as if police want to instill fear so they can continue to rule over us

Going forward, all Twitter employees are now required to send an email every Friday updating Elon Musk with what they are working on and “code samples” if they are engineers, per internal memo sent out. Hardcore! theverge.com/e/23236413

I think this abandoned Burger King fire is the fifth major structure fire in the last three years (3/5 were arson)

I keep trying sword & sorcery novels/stories despite ample evidence that I just don't like the genre. It's just that I like so much stuff that's inspired by it! The Steerswoman books by @rkirstein are the only S-tier S&S books I've found, if they qualify.

Who else owns one of these nesting Twitter dolls? It has my very first tweet engraved on the bottom, and a doll for each of the founding fathers of Twitter inside…

#Twitter was an American microblogged and social networking service on which users posted and interacted with messages known as "tweets". Registered users can post, like, and retweet tweets, but unregistered users can only read them.

I have a sinking feeling that when the Tesla criminal investigation concludes only one or two low-level people will face real consequences, similar to the 737-MAX ACAS deaths Elon fires people for telling him he’s wrong. After two of those who would speak up?

It only takes two people to start a union, you say?

Requests like this are always best done respectful and in writing so it’s clear later exactly what was said. While NRLA generally protects union organizing activities, it also protects nonunion workers simply working together (must be 2 or more) for better working conditions.
