I don't think it would amount to much, but it would be very funny to get a couple Congresspeople who keep introducing resolutions that Congress cannot have workplace standards lower than the US average.
After today the U.S. House of Representatives is off until after the midterm elections. That's a month and a half paid vacation.

Once we were upset with some inaction from management at the brewery so to register our discontent we set the warehouse-wide system to play Jimmy Buffett's 'Cheeseburger in Paradise' on a continuous loop for a couple hours, then locked the computer. Management had to reset the wifi to stop it.
I wrote about who gets to pick the music at work, from Muzak and wartime songs that made workers think about their lovers overseas to Balkan heavy metal and the fight over earbuds at Amazon.

I think the ultimate reason why I can't get too worked up over AI fears is that no one can give an example of Bad Thing that AI might do which the rich and powerful aren't already trying to do. Oh the computer might launch a nuke? Well a demented pedophile already threatened that earlier this year.

Conversely you have never had more access to content depicting crime. You have never felt less safe while living in a year that is in competition for the safest in human history.
Minnesota's murder and violent crime rates fell sharply in 2025, with the state recording its fewest murders and lowest violent crime rate since before the pandemic, according to a new report from the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension.

I declare The Jacket Game an unqualified success. Kudos to @curiousbets.bsky.social for doing so much to put the 👁️ in Pigs Eye. Some of the most deranged minds of Saint Paul are already percolating ideas for next year's Game(s).

one thing that stood out to me, that made the gathering such a success, was the number of folks I didn’t already know who were wearing the Saint Paul Jacket.
those are Neighbors. that’s Community.
