Employers spend roughly $1.7 billion a year on union avoidance consultants and law firms, to dissuade and weaken workers’ unionization efforts. Read the latest report from Economic Policy Institute: https://ow.ly/g8Zr50Z4KWO Union busting is disgusting.

“AI is here so you may as well accept it and take advantage of it-“ JUST SAY YOU’RE MORALLY AND ARTISTICALLY CORRUPT

The only reason people are telling you to scoot over and make room for AI is because billionaires want to become trillionaires, and they think it’s easier to pay people to say its ethical and amazing than to pay their fucking employees

i had the time of my life having the meal of my death. chef josh and co. artfully produce one of the internet's best interview shows in "last meals" and attacked my episode with panache. i was and am beyond honored. watch us eat, laugh, wax poetic, and SOLVE AN ESCAPE ROOM?!!

"The real test of friendship and solidarity is not where one stands when the weather is fair, and the sun is shining, but rather where one stands at a time of storm and stress." -- UAW President Walter Reuther, Berlin Freedom Rally, Germany, May 1, 1959. 📸 Walter P. Reuther Library | UAW Archivist

love trans people loudly!!!

its May Day folks, make sure u work as little as possible today and take care of urselves as much as possible today!!!!

This game is going to make me bite all my nails off. We really needed that regulation win 😩 C’mon Sirens, let’s get this in OT at least #pwhl #nysirens

I put on Laura Jane Grace’s album “Adventure Club” during my shower, forgetting that a certain song was on that album. So you’re welcome to all my neighbors who just got to hear about God’s dick and balls at top volume 💀

And last but definitely NOT least, @katelynburns.com wrote about seeing herself in Heated Rivalry, a tender piece on queerness and sports. 

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

my grandpa died Monday and now this, I'm so stressed out 😭 I just want Sweet Pea to come home and be safe and comfortable and happy, my heart is breaking and I don't know what else I can do

The NY Sirens keep their slim playoff hopes alive with a 3-2 win over the Toronto Sceptres. What a game. #PWHL

Wee woo wee woo 🚨 Please can we have a win tonight, please? #pwhl #nysirens

*talking to teenage militant atheist self* current me: okay so there’s a big fight between the government and the catholic church teenage me: got it, so we’re obviously on the side of the government current me: I, uh, you might want to sit down for this one

NASA isn't why the US doesn't have universal healthcare, or a social safety net. The US doesn't have those things because politicians with the power to provide them choose specifically not to (with varying levels of support from voters). Enthusiasm for human spaceflight doesn't drive that choice.

Expect Western news to imminently report about Lebanon's hospitals "failing" after "having been damaged" as opposed to the truth, which is Israel is committing a further ethnic cleansing in Lebanon, ensuring the Lebanese are exterminated or unable to live in their homes. apnews.com/article/leba...

I love going into our storage at work and rifling around in all the old papers. In another life, I would’ve thrived as an archivist.

I didn’t tune in to today’s game and we won, which I think means I can never watch another game again #pwhl #nysirens

happy give trans people money and jobs day. also visibility is okay if it's the kind where trans people get to speak for each other, and not the kind where other people get to speak about trans people.

1. In devastating news, the Supreme Court just ruled in favor of conversion therapy, a practice the UN calls torture. The ruling could have catastrophic consequences, writes Jackson in her sole dissent. The ruling comes on trans day of visibility. Subscribe to support our journalism.

The NY Citizen Preparedness Training Program teaches residents to have the tools and resources to prepare for any type of disaster, respond accordingly, and recover as quickly as possible. Courses are free, but you must register (dhses.ny.gov/citizen-preparedness-training-calendar).

i cannot imagine a future without trans people because without trans people there isn't a future

Thinking about the sharp increase in injuries in the #PWHL and I think you can draw a direct correlation between the incredibly uneven reffing, which causes players to not trust the reffing, which leads to more confrontations on the ice, and which ultimately leads to more injury. #hockeyposting

A month or two ago, I got an extra sauce packet in one of the instant noodle brands I really like. Ever since then, every time I open a package, I feel like one of those dogs who finds a piece of pizza under a bush on a walk and now has to investigate that same bush on every subsequent walk.

My team and my second fave team are playing! I hope the #nysirens win, but I definitely won’t be mad if #montrealvictoire gets this one. #pwhl

Got this idea in a dream of a hot lady engraving armour on a butch knight , akin to a tattoo artist. Now im itching to draw a sapphic paranormal comic 😮‍💨. I gotta stop

I’m exploding my coworkers who came to work sick and didn’t wear masks with my mind.

ECSTATIC that Montreal fucking swept Minnesota; head in my hands over my beautiful sirens getting whooped by SEATTLE...

"Let us not ask what AI can do for Oberlin students, but what Oberlin students can do ourselves, while we still have the brain capacity to think on our own." (Wondering if Luddite clubs might spring up at other schools where students are similarly frustrated with administrators' #AI obsession...)

we are not off to a good start here as a ny fan. but maybe there’s hope! #pwhl #nysirens

i think sometimes cis people truly have a hard time understanding that jk rowling is a living person actively using her wealth to fund the international assault on trans lives. she’s not some Complicated Author we can have a spirited debate about separating from the art with!!!!!

It’s as easy as shutting your effin mouth! And did I mention… it’s free?!

If I see one more recipe titled “Marry Me [INSERT WHATEVER RANDOM FOOD HERE],” I’m going to walk into the ocean never to return.

I find this completely believable. I’m on the top end of gen-Z but I find people in my age group and younger spot AI imagery instantly and it’s often taken as an indicator of corporate insincerity. Meanwhile a lot of older people I know can’t tell the difference and workplace management pushes it.

If you are charging $20 for a burger and you don’t include fries with it, I think your restaurant deserves to go out of business.

“It is simply not possible to convey a sense of seriousness about any events if its implications are exhausted in less than one minute’s time.” (Amusing Ourselves to Death)

i’m going to regret staying awake to watch this game #pwhl #nysirens

I am going to need the Sirens to get their shit together #pwhl #weewoo

Double the games, double the fun 😉 Don’t miss any of the action tonight as Ottawa faces Minnesota at 7PM ET and New York takes on Vancouver at 10PM ET!

this has been an absolutely brutal game as a sirens fan #pwhl

In today's episode of "Hope Puts Their Foot in Their Mouth," I just called myself insane in direct conversation with one of my bosses. 💀

And checking info/debunking bs both takes time and sadly isn't a skillset that's nearly as widespread as it should be. This is a bad problem and its getting worse. Making panicslop is, at best, an act of apathetic greed in a dire situation. At worst it's treason in wartime. Act accordingly.

People sink into despair when they could be organizing and aiding each other, they get a highly false idea of our enemies' power over our lives and our odds of victory. This is the effect of panicslop. Sadly, plenty spread it in good faith, because there are also very real threats out there...

Sadly, there are a handful of hacks who have made it their business (literally, in some cases) to sow as much panic and despair among trans people as possible. In addition to making things even harder for communities already facing very real threats, it also obscures what we're actually up against.
