Dream come true: I wrote a very silly jingle for my fave pro-labor baseball podcast @tipping_pitches, they played it on the pod and said they'll use it whenever they reference vegetables in the future: pod.link/1265588219/episode/… Thanks @bwags @a_bazeley

MWA stands with the @AFLCIO in urging @senatedems @senschumer to pass the #PROAct. There’s been much confusion (and misinformation) about how the #PROAct would affect creative freelancers. Here’s a 🧵⬇️ on why we support the #PROAct *without amendments to the #ABCTest* 1/15

She was small in stature but even the tallest looked up to her. Her voice was soft but her message rang loud and clear and will echo forever. Thank you, RBG. Rest In Peace. Respectfully, Dolly Parton

Go buy music from your favorite artists TODAY on @Bandcamp! They are waiving commission so all $ goes directly to musicians. Also, read this @future_of_music thread on why this is important: x.com/future_of_music/status…

It's awesome that @bandcamp is forgoing its share of the revenue today. It's also worth thinking about the reasons why the company is willing and able to do this. daily.bandcamp.com/features/…

Having seen her live, I've gotta say... Dolly is one of the best sax mimers in the business x.com/JacobGarchik/status/98…

thing is I don't think Dolly actually plays sax. But maybe that's to her advantage?

It's illegal to lay people off for trying to unionize. This is a shocking thing for a spokesperson to admit. nytimes.com/2017/11/02/nyreg…

Just a reminder that unions are the best route to the middle class. And thats why bosses don't want you to have them.

also, I ran out of time (as usual), other songs I had hoped to play: Rich Girl, All Night Long, Brandy (is 1972 too early?)
To be fair, "Hey Soul Sister" was the answer (maybe that is worse, actually...)
