As is typical Seattle City Council is working one some bullshit to destroy our ethics code 🤨

A large crowd of Kshama Sawant supporters are currently in attendance at this afternoon's council meeting. Many of whom worked to pass some of the housing reforms this major ethics code change will likely also make it legal to destroy.

Czy pamiętacie, że 14 marca jest dniem słynnej i fascynującej liczby Pi?

Jest to okazja wspomnieć o Danielu Tammet. To genialny #sawant #autystyk, #synesteta, obdarzony ponadprzeciętnymi umiejętnościami arytmetycznymi i językowymi (11 języków+).

W Polsce ukazaly się jego 3 #książki "Urodziłem się pewnego błękitnego dnia. Pamiętniki nadzwyczajnego umysłu z zespołem Aspergera" tłum. Małgorzata Mysiorska, "Zanurzeni w liczbach. Jak #matematyka kształtuje nasze życie" tłum. Zuzanna Lamża oraz "Słowa są jak ptaki, które uczymy śpiewać. O znaczeniach i tajemnicach #języka" tłum. Tadeusz Chawziuk.*

To właśnie Daniel Tammet jest rekordzistą Europy w recytowaniu z pamięci 22 514 cyfr liczby pi. Bezbłędne podanie wszystkich cyfr zajęło mu 5 godzin i 9 minut.

***
Po­dzi­wu god­na licz­ba Pi
trzy koma je­den czte­ry je­den.
Wszyst­kie jej dal­sze cy­fry też są po­cząt­ko­we,
pięć dzie­więć dwa po­nie­waż ni­g­dy się nie koń­czy.
(...)
a tak­że zie­mia i nie­bo prze­mi­ną,
ale nie licz­ba Pi, co to to nie,
(...)
(W. Szymborska "Liczba Pi", fragment)

From her 1st day to her last, Kshama Sawant has stood up for us, the 99%--never making deals with the 1%. That's what corporate media & their political counterparts call "divisive." We need more such fighters! That means we need to stand up and fight back!

I will join Workers Strike Back, today if possible, soon for sure. I have long admired this principled, courageous socialist. She is a shining example of what a reliable fighter for the 99% can and should be.

#minddumping (sorry): and as a side note: how do we actually get democratic socialist, in general, really address their class esstentialism of race, it's not that I am arguing that class & race are not related, but nothing turns me off to the organization of DSA. at a ds event at Langston Hughes Center and only I mentioned the irony of a demo. social. event at a venue held for African-American culture, and a local demo. social. leader could emphasize work on race within their movement #sawant
