I took over 25,000 steps today on the picket line with @UICUF. And I would roll 500 more. Each step for my students. Fair contract now.

Can't make it out to the picket lines to support @UICUF faculty on strike at @thisisUIC? Write a letter to make clear your support and tell @thisisUIC to settle a fair contract now: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-u… We're stronger together.

@UICUF urges all members to stop work and join our picket lines between 10-12 and 1-3, and our noon rallies on the quad. Pickets will operate at UH, SES, the Lecture Centers, and the College of Nursing. More information in email just sent out to members.

Me: He's a bit of a nudnik. Partner: What's a nudnik? Me: What do you mean, what's a nudnik? It's exactly what it sounds like. A nudnik. Another perfect Yiddish lesson. He should pay me for this.

@dalemaglalang @abrilforeal This made me feel so good. So much love in that photo.

At a prior institution, we used to have secret meetings to talk about organizing. Proud to be a member of @UICUF. We are stronger together.

In anti-oppressive practice, we must look out for those moments when we think we get it, and others do not. That we have arrived, and others have not. This just means we are creating new hierarchies. And indicates how much work there is still left to do. Stay humble.

I just saw a mazda miata giving a jump to...another mazda miata. We're living in a simulation.

@MitchRoitman I love this so much.
