good morning, friends don't forget to NOT GET STARBUCKS @sbworkersunited.org

turns out the emails we should have been reading in 2016 were from the NYT

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

One of the things that's very difficult to really take to heart about MAGA conservatives is that you can't get them on hypocrisy about their children because they really don't give a fuck about their kids

I'm at Clojure Conj 2025 and once again this community is blowing my mind with their creative brilliance. I love this language. I love these people.

the future is weird

Our leading news organizations turned a cache of ultimately-innocuous emails into a scandal-coded weeklong series of front page stories leading into the 2016 election. If they do not cover the "emails from notorious pedophile implication the President" emails with the same fervor, it's curious!

the republican party is engaged in a cover up to keep the american people from learning whether president trump is president pedo

things take time to percolate but truly the weirdest shit keeps percolating and resonating. I interviewed a super normie at no kings last time and he had a sign joking about being antifa and the number one thing he was mad about off the top of his head was venezuelan boat strikes

Mamdani has now gotten more votes than 1/4 of the members of the United States Senate did when they got elected. The political power being channeled here is immense.

the reason republicans lost yesterday is because theyre a bunch of weird freaks pushing policy that everyone hates

Despite the fact that I have substantial disagreements with Carroll, that wasn't him. It's not even a good parody. It's by a nasty little troll whose name I won't mention because I don't want to increase his renown.

the US government has arrived on bluesky

The Aristocrats!

The president of the United States has said *multiole times* that he hates Americans who are democrats. That is a FUCKING HUGE SCANDAL. Nobody will treat it as one.

I liked how Brazilian Army forces fighting in Italy in WW2 had a shoulder patch of a snake smoking a pipe.

Watching Jay, I realize I am simply exhausted by folks in positions of leadership who are driven to distraction by critique. If you can't function with critique and pushback, a leadership position is not for you. Leadership REQUIRES you to absorb and process the critique of stakeholders.

hellooo Portland!

insight (as usual) from Anil

And they’ve only pointed those out because they *care* enough about the site to have strong feelings, and they have trusted you enough over time to think it’s even worth engaging. Whoever is giving you affirmation or positive responses for this is giving you bad counsel as a leader.
