A grid-style illustrated poster reads “Politics & Poetics of Care — Fee-Free Weekend, 10/17–10/19, tendon issue 08.” The grid contains drawings of various care-related objects: a threaded needle, a potted plant, a lit candle, two pills, a syringe, an open pair of cupped hands, and a small cauldron. Blue check marks appear along the bottom row. The color scheme is mostly blue, beige, and green.

PERSUASION x SUCCESSION but make it LESBIAN. Annie: black sheep hidden away for a decade, now her Senator Dad's newest prop. Freddie: her dreaded ex and the campaign's progressive savior. Politics meets second chances. And Annie just might meet herself in the process. #DVPit #A #CR #OWN #LGBT #DIS

AUSTEN x VEEP Sober disaster Annie gets dragged into her Senator dad's campaign as the token queer daughter. Then her ex Freddie shows up as their progressive savior. Performance politics meets second-chance romance—and Annie's failing, obvs. #DVPit #A #CR #OWN #LGBT #DIS #DisasterQueer

Promotional graphic for "Lesbian Persuasion," a sapphic Austen retelling. A vibrant parrot with red and blue plumage is superimposed on a classical Dutch still life painting featuring fruit, flowers, and a seascape. Green arrows and text labels highlight themes: "Austen retelling," "late blooming lesbian," "disaster queer," "sapphic anti-capitalism," "second chance romance," and "eat the rich." An ornate gold baroque frame centers an excerpt describing Annie Elliot watching a panicked starling trapped on a train, its desperate flapping mirroring her own heartbeat.

Annie Elliot is too queer, too blunt, too messy for politics. When her Senator father forces her to join his newest campaign and her (in)famous ex reappears, she has to decide what redemption really looks like in this toothy Austen retelling. #DVPit #A #CR #ownvoices #OWN #LGBT #DIS #DisasterQueer

Du Bois, Black Reconstruction in America

IV. THE GENERAL STRIKE

How the Civil War meant emancipation and how the black worker

won the war by a general strike which transferred his labor from

the Confederate planter to the Northern invader, in whose army lines workers began to be organized as a new labor force

When Edwin Ruffin, white-haired and mad, fired the first gun at Fort Sumter, he freed the slaves. It was the last thing he meant to do but that was because he was so typically a Southern oligarch. He did not know the real world about him. He was provincial and lived apart on his plantation with his servants, his books and his thoughts. Outside of agriculture, he jumped at conclusions instead of testing them by careful research. He knew, for instance, that the North would not fight. He knew that Negroes would never revolt.

It’s honestly so disrespectful and irresponsible that the national media has mostly ignored the DC33 city worker strike in Philly so far. It’s a huge story with massive implications for the 6th biggest city in the country. Hell, I’ll write about it for ya! Email me! www.inquirer.com/politics/phi...

inquirer.com

Philly is in its first municipal strike in the social media age. Does that affect how events are unfolding?

So far, the national press has largely ignored Philadelphia's first strike by city workers since 1986.
