We still need help with GOTV for Abdul & there are plenty of short shifts you can take to make calls! You can call from anywhere! I was on a shift with some folks from DC on Saturday. This matters. Help us fight.

If you don't live in Michigan but you want to help the effort to help get Abdul El-Sayed elected, there are many virtual phonebanks, you use a dialer, your number is anonymized, you get training: go.abdulforsenate.com/phonebank

"I would not ever vote for Haley Stevens again...Haley was a turncoat. She showed us that in the last election." - Michigan voter BLASTS Haley Stevens for her turn on Abdul El-Sayed to endorse Republican Mike Rogers

Stacey Abrams on Haley Stevens endorsing Mike Rogers over Abdul El-Sayed: “Black women have a body count from the anti-abortion laws that Mike Rogers supports.” Losing an election doesn’t mean ditching your values. And as Stacey made clear, it doesn’t justify using Black people as props. #SheShed

This is about Atthis Arts (again). It is often difficult for authors to speak up against their publishers. It takes a lot of courage to do what Emma's done today. The thread has an overview summary, and the post goes through the specifics. I truly wish Emma all the best. This is all atrocious.

As of this morning, Ex Partum has been discontinued. After a four month print run, Atthis Arts has decided to cancel the book. Find this surprising? You're not alone. This has been a rollercoaster experience. emmaburnett.uk/life/axed-pa...

To close his campaign, Roger Marshall is running a 60-second ad about a central theme of this campaign — how he treated patients. “We had to keep the lights on, so we occasionally handed accounts over to collection agencies”, he explains.

All right. tonight's inventory selection. Today's feature is a pair of earrings with stones that look like fall limbs against a stormy sky [shown below]. We have a coil bracelet that picks up some of the same colors and textures.

There WILL BE less people like Patrick Stewart or Dolly Parton, given widening wealth inequality, loss of jobs in creative sector, austerity, privatisation of education (especially arts) & financial exclusion. Art of the near future will be less diverse & restricted to the privileged few.

Huge decline of working class people in the arts reflects fall in wider society

Study shows the proportion of musicians, writers and artists with working-class origins has shrunk by half since the 1970s

Patrick Stewart's passing feels a whole hell of a lot like Dolly's. It's hard to imagine that singular talents found in people born in the working class or working poor will get fostered the ways theirs were. The things that nurtured those talents have been stripped for profit by assholes.

Hello dear fans! As a reminder, be wary of unauthorized reproductions of my art sold on places such as "Temu" and "TikTok shop". I have only worked with reputable companies. If you want to directly support me and my art, you can do so through my Kofi(in bio). Thank you for understanding

DNC Black Caucus Chair: “MI Democrats are proud to stand behind Abdul El-Sayed as our nominee for U.S. Senate and in two days we will elect him to serve us in Washington. We are dismayed that Haley Stevens has revealed herself to be a sellout who used Black Michiganders for a political stunt.”

A statement from DNC Black Caucus Chair Virgie Rollins: “Michigan Democrats are proud to stand behind Abdul El-Sayed as our nominee for U.S. Senate and in two days we will elect him to serve us in Washington. 

We are dismayed that Haley Stevens has revealed herself to be a sellout who used Black Michiganders for a political stunt. Congresswoman Stevens has lost her way, and Michiganders know that Mike Rogers is a shill for Trump and has failed Michigan. We are ready to elect Abdul on Tuesday.”

Statement from Justin German, (former) Chief of Staff to Rep. Haley Stevens: “We are shocked and heartbroken by Congresswoman Stevens' decision to support Mike Rogers. As of this morning, many members of our team have resigned, including myself”


STATEMENT FROM JUSTIN GERMAN CHIEF OF STAFF TO REP. HALEY STEVENS
As Haley Stevens' Chief of Staff for eight years, I speak on behalf of our team in wholeheartedly supporting Abdul El-Sayed for Senate. This election is too important to sow division or stand on the sidelines. We are shocked and heartbroken by Congresswoman Stevens' decision to support Mike Rogers.
Those of us who are Michigan voters are supporting Democrats up and down the ballot and have been working all season to elect strong Democratic majorities to the House and Senate-we will continue to do so.
As of this morning, many members of our team have resigned, including myself. We encourage everyone to exercise their civic duty, vote for Abdul and Democrats up and down the ballot, and stand up for the America we all believe in.
