caused by debris from an intercepted Iranian drone hitting an oil facility.

Idk anything about warfare but if the drone hit something important then it kind of seems like it wasn't intercepted.

It was 70 degrees at the beginning of the week. Now it looks like 2 inches of snow just fell overnight.

I am not looking forward to the news tomorrow morning. Every Saturday I wake up super early for work and see terrible news.

The accounting between suppliers and retail grocery operations is really fucked up and doesn't really make any economic sense which is partly why third party coupons are all sort of pointless now.

america deindustrialized so extensively, we can’t even manufacture consent anymore

Lol

It doesn't matter. Nobody's organized. Who are you going to seize power with? Your church? Your union? Your neighbors? You probably don't have any of these and even if you do you probably don't have much meaningful connection to them. Until Americans rebuild American society there is no internal threat to the empire.

I'm so happy it's starting to warm up where I am because my tire pressure isn't dropping after being chained up outside during work. Makes it much easier to get around. My chain getting rusty is probably slowing me down a little too.

Oh no! Is the mortar okay?

Since the war started with the bombing of a girl's school and the Supreme Leader's home, I can only assume Trump means the US and Israel are threatening to start attacking military targets now.

Something the left here has totally forgotten is the importance of organizing workers as workers (and let me be explicit here and say I mean organizing unions of workers with or without government sanction). Every time there was something even remotely close to a revolution in the US was because proles (or slaves) revolted, almost exclusively organized by unions or in similar formations. Lenin and Marx both saw worker organization and militancy as essential to revolutionary action and history proves time and time again that it's the essential foundation of revolution in the industrialized world. The new left ignored these facts because organizing workers is hard, organizing students was easier, and incorrect readings of Mao and Lenin gave justification to do the latter instead of the former. We've been fucked ever since.

This doesn't mean just organizing workers into government sanctioned collaborationist unions, but even the most reactionary unions develop class consciousness of their members. The fact that there are (supposedly) 100k DSA members and not even one tenth as many salting campaigns says everything that needs to be said about the modern American left. How do we expect to project and wield the power of the proletariat if the proletariat is comically disorganized?

Succfer fi soldier freedom-and-democracy

 

I'm not currently a DSA member but I'm consistently impressed by what Red Star publishes so here's this.

 

How'd it go? Are there any recaps out yet?

 

UNFI is one of (if not the) largest wholesalers in the US and Canada. While health/natural food stores are primarily supplied by it, UNFI also supplies significant amounts of product to traditional grocery operations. This combined with the tariffs and ongoing labor unrest in the grocery industry could cause significant problems with food distribution across the country this summer.

If you have products you rely on read the shelf tag closely. Usually it will say the supplier on them. If you see "UNFI" it might be a good idea to stock up on those products.

Websites, podcasts, social media, etc. I don't really care about the medium but I can't seem to find a good single source on the subject.

I think I stumbled upon a woman who is into me and I'm really into her but I haven't the slightest idea how to express that beyond kinda just saying it like a dumbass. We've hung out a few times and I'm going to reach out to go out with her again but I've got no idea how to express my actual feelings for her

I've never had a girlfriend. Only women I've been with have come onto me hard and I just halfheartedly played along. Last time I was really into a girl was years ago and I fucked it up because I didn't know how to express that. I really don't want to mess this one up though. How do I go about this?

Edit: thanks for the input everyone (silly answers too). Gonna ask her to go somewhere with me this weekend and be a little bit less coy
