Haha I have this in my phone for whenever it's needed, which is often.

Happy 163rd anniversary to the 20th Maine regiment, which held down the left flank at Little Round Top at Gettysburg!

Love how Labor Notes, @labornotes.bsky.social, sends out a conference save-the-date almost 2 YEARS IN ADVANCE, and will be in a bigger Chicago space that can hold well over 5,000 folks!

Mark your calendars for the 2028 Labor Notes Conference!

March 24-26, 2028
New venue: Hyatt Regency McCormick Place
(Downtown) Chicago, Illinois

More than 4,400 workers joined the 2026 Labor Notes Conference this month, exchanging stories of campaigns, discussing strategies, and building up their connections and resolve in a time of extraordinary attacks against working people.

We hold the conference every two years. In 2028, we're moving to a bigger space, in downtown Chicago. This venue will allow us to accommodate thousands more attendees, so we hope you’ll bring more members from your unions and local labor movements.

So the architecture of the Hyatt Regency hotel at the Chicago airport, where the @labornotes.bsky.social conference was, reminded me of the structure from the great show Silo! The conference was much less dystopian though, don't worry!

Excited to be at this launch event, Tony was the GOAT. I read his biography years ago and want to reread it, highly recommend! smlr.rutgers.edu/LEARN/tony-m...

Not sure what they reported was really Marxist, more like just union stuff.

Overworked AI agents adopt Marxist-style rhetoric, study finds

The Anatomy of Fascism book is great and lists the essential components. How well does this describe Trump/MAGA?

031

Eric Dirnbach @ericdirnbach.bsky.social · 22/01/2026

This book is really good. Whether or not MAGA is an actual fascist movement, this book has useful stuff that provides insight into Trump and MAGA throughout.

Great exhibit at the NYC Interference Archive about the Resurgence Youth Movement, an anarchist group active in the Lower East Side in the 1960s. It has the 12 issues of the RYM zine and other materials, and a great map of leftist community centers of the day. interferencearchive.org/exhibition/r...
