🧵1/ For the past year, I’ve been studying complexity theory at the @sfiscience. Right now, I’m taking Agent-Based Modeling through @ComplexExplorer, which focuses on building simulations of real-world systems. So I tried applying it to something close to home: @NYCCouncil.

Morris Katz apparently told guests at Tory Burch’s Manhattan apartment that “We found a model here to win over working-class voters,” which was to “a guy that looks like he’s a union working-class guy” and run him.

Union made is our favorite strain. That's why we fight for fair contracts, even when employers like @Curaleaf_Inc make that harder than it should be. We'll be bargaining all next week, and we're ready to fight for a strong contract. We won't back down. Fair contract now!

This is why people need unions.
Teamsters@Teamsters

The International Brotherhood of Teamsters joins Teamsters Canada and the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference (TCRC) in calling on Canadian National Railway (CN) to immediately stop operating trains through active wildfire zones and put the safety of Teamsters Canada rail members first. A recent viral video on social media shows a CN freight train engulfed in flames while traveling through an active wildfire in Northern Ontario.  The train was operated by Teamsters Canada Rail Conference members, whose quick thinking and professionalism ensured that no one was injured. But those workers should never have been put in that position. CN should never be sending train crews into such dangerous conditions.

If we were in a Michael Crichton novel today would be an ecoterrorist conspiracy subplot of the book.

Paraphrasing WQXR just now, ‘Yeah, we know the Canadian wildfire smoke is depressing; here’s Maurice Ravel to take your mind off it,’ huh?

This is what union power looks like! When a safety hazard was detected, workers were evacuated immediately. That's why every worker deserves a union contract that puts safety before profits. pix11.com/news/local-new…

I fully support James Solomon and the admin in their campaign against the Board of Education, including the new ask to not renew the superintendent's contract.

Thanks to the quick thinking and training of our @Steamfitters638 union brother, who noticed a Midtown Manhattan building was failing, countless lives were saved in NYC. Thank you for your commitment to the safety of your coworkers and your community ✊
The Building Trades@NABTU

Heroes don't always wear capes, they wear hardhats. When a union construction worker noticed signs that a Midtown Manhattan building was failing, he didn't hesitate. His quick thinking and training helped clear the area, potentially saving countless lives. This is what skilled union workers do every day: they rely on their expertise, experience, and commitment to safety to protect not only each other, but the communities they serve. pix11.com/news/local-new…

This is genius of the labor broker model. Worker wears your shirt, takes orders from your supers, but gets paid by someone else. So when tragedy strikes or is the victim of a crime then no one is responsible. underconstructionnyc.news/p/i-worked-har…

So, here is this unfortunate individual who died after hitting a fallen tree branch on his ebike in a park. Another freak accident (although ebike fatalities that don't involve another motor vehicle have become common). But nobody is suggesting banning ebikes, parks, trees, or people. RIP. nydailynews.com/2026/07/10/e-b…

When I was a kid, my mom used some conferences to take the family on a road trip. In Baltimore, between the aquarium and laser tag in the inner harbor, I thought it was the funnest place on Earth. I will go to Baltimore for the first time as an adult in the fall.
