@cwebber I used to be hot, but I didn't know it. All that wasted hotness...

Calling all REI members! Here’s our chance to take back our co-op from big oil and anti-worker corporate interests. 
REI’s Board of Directors is out of control, dominated by Exxon Mobil, Proctor and Gamble, and other corporate executives.
REI’s board denies us a real vote. They just put their cherry-picked corporate candidates on our ballot to vote up or down.
Now is our chance to take back our co-op by rejecting their slate of corporate executive candidates.

@cwebber @m_22 I guess that makes me unintentionally trans. I'll own it!

@FreeScholar I have to pass for now. I'm just overloaded. Please keep me in the loop, though. @Matt_Noyes @ntnsndr @mako @dazinism @sam @Eliot_L @dmokreis @GiacomoSansoni @coopartisans @toddxy @JosephAndriano @BillySmith

@FreeScholar I'm coming in late here. I do not understand the project based on the weblink. There is information about the platform but not about the topic in particular. Is this about one-click co-ops? I'm not keen on that idea. Is this about changing co-op laws? That's my bag. Sorry for misinterpreting.

Q for #foss folks: is there a simple open-source blogging cms package I could install for myself on my server space on @mayfirst #mayfirst without a lot of technical chops?

What functioning multi-stakeholder or solidarity co-ops are extant in the US? I know of Weaver Street Market here as the prime example because I have been a member ab initio. And I know about Fifth Season in Wisconsin because I know Courtney Berner at UWCC. As common a topic as multi-class co-ops are, I thought there'd be a lot. But I can't find a listing or mention of others. What am I missing? Thanks!

@evan I am deeply opposed to land ownership as an investment asset.
