@Will32080712 @TheRealSVBOwner @phillavelle Dude, I grew up in Gastonia. Gastonia redAF. R state congress gerrymandered Gastonia up to Asheville specifically to cancel AVL blue-ness. If he can’t fill a stadium on Gastonia it’s his own damn fault.

Eye-popping realization!!

Let’s get something straight about fossil fuel phase-out: renewables needn’t replace all the coal, oil and gas we use today bc most of it is just used to produce and move those fossil fuels around!

We only need to replace the useful energy: 37% of what we currently produce 🫨🧵

My name is Braxton Winston, and I am running to be your next Commissioner of Labor.

I believe in a South where workers have heat safety protections and return home from a hard day’s work healthy and alive. I believe in a North Carolina where businesses AND workers thrive. I believe the future generation is worth investing in so that we have a strong and resilient workforce for years to come.

Being NC’s Commissioner of Labor is so much more than just being the face in every elevator. I humbly ask for your support and your vote on November 5th.

@annajanejoyner They’re the base of Christianist Nationalism rapture theology. No need to worry about the future of Earth ‘cuz Jesus is going to take them all away, the Temple will be rebuilt, and converted Jews will be frontline soldiers for Him to claim the throne & reign for a 1000 years.

Frances Perkins, from Massachusetts, was the first female Cabinet member and a fierce fighter for big, structural change. What did she get done? 

Social Security. 
Minimum wage. 
Union rights. 
The weekend.  

Let’s honor her by creating the Frances Perkins national monument.

@annajanejoyner I recall this upbringing being something we share, @annajanejoyner . And similarly, most of the sexual violence I’ve encountered came from men who held these beliefs and were supposed to be the ones leading and looking out for me.
