The Communist Party of the United States of America (CPUSA) was established on this day in 1919. CPUSA provided legal aid to the Scottsboro Boys, helped poor Southern farmers form sharecropper unions, and promoted communist ideas within the U.S.

The party was established after a split in the Socialist Party of America following the Russian Revolution, and initially operated underground due to the Palmer Raids, a series of anti-immigrant, anti-labor, and anti-communist raids conducted by Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer.

CPUSA was an early opponent of segregation and racial discrimination, giving legal aid to the Scottsboro Boys and helping poor black farmers in the South organize sharecropper unions. Because of this, the party had a strong presence in Alabama in the 1930s. This history is detailed in "Hammer and Hoe: Alabama Communists during the Great Depression" by historian Robin D.G. Kelley.

Im worried the other cooks are gonna think i'm a mega wuss and resent me for leaving them my work to do because i'm not working today because my thumb kept bleeding a little through the stitches all day yesterday and I feel like i should not be moving it so much if it's doing that. And my friend was like, yeah, they will, and described a slew of fucked up kitchen injuries she's seen people just work through.

Idk seems kinda stupid and toxic to me, I was told don't do gym stuff like pushups for 4 days, I think 10 hours of cooking shit is probably more strenuous on my thumb than that. And Id probably still work with it but it's this big flap wound covering the entire knuckle so every movement is separating the skin

I hope people don't stop helping me with stuff because i still need a lot of help getting everything done. I literally don't know what i could be doing differently sometimes other than being in two places at once. I can't cook beef for philly cheesesteaks on the flattop grill while chopping more tofu because we ran out (i made the quantity I was told to make!) while dropping fries in the fryer because by the time I throw all the beef on the grill I need to be breaking up the first bits or it'll start to burn and if i turn it down and cook it any slower we'll run out of beef

Looking up countries' immigration rules and sorting by average height of women (descending). It's called having priorities

people who set their soulseek upload limit to such a small amount that every album download will fail part way are so obnoxious. Just don't upload at all. The 30mb limit type shit is so much worse.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I think it's to avoid getting blocked by people who have a minimum # of albums shared threshold while still not uploading much. Annoying either way.

What you people who grew up non-racist don't understand is how hard it is to think of a funny racist joke and not be able to say it because you know better now.

I could have been a conservative standup comedian but I gave it all up to post on Hexbear.
