An immigrant doesn’t stand between you and a good job. A billionaire president does.

in a way, isn’t causing men to crash out before she’s even done anything just proof that Lupita is perfect for Helen of Troy

Every time I open this app it's "The world is literally radioactive now!" followed by "Zohran Mamdani has struck a deal with sunshine and rainbows and now NYC will have permanently sunny days with rainbows."

State statutes permitting early voting are dependent on the specific definition of "election." Four Virginia Supreme Court justices absolutely decided to engage in partisan hackery in a way I've never seen before in the Commonwealth.

Voting in an overwhelming wave this fall is vital, but it's also important to understand that Republicans are no longer wedded to electoral outcomes or committed to liberal democracy. They have already begun using force to exercise power and alter democratic behavior. It's going to intensify. 🧵

Good morning ☕️

Watching David Attenborough get highly deserved praised for his century is reminding me: There is no crisis of masculinity, as such. We have plenty of positive male role models in our society. They just aren’t being pushed into young men’s feeds by nihilistic ad networks and social platforms.

Just like last time, this EO is unconstitutional. The federal government does not run our elections. The President does not get to decide who can vote, or how. We'll see him (back) in court.

Companies are rushing AI into the workplace with little oversight and serious consequences for workers. People are being monitored, evaluated and disciplined by systems that can be biased, inaccurate and opaque. Workers deserve a real voice and real protections. Learn more:

Having younger colleagues means sometimes reintroducing them to the ancient texts, like the very real and deeply weird (romantic?) fixation Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi had on Condoleezza Rice.

BREAKING: Nearly 1,000 faculty members at NYU are on strike. The union for non-tenured faculty, @CfuUaw, was optimistic about reaching an agreement this morning. But after giving the university a 3 hour extension, the two sides could not agree, and the strike is now on.

It's exhausting having an edgelord as president.

One of the most eye opening moments of my early career was working at a major polling firm during the Mueller Russia investigation and seeing the cold hard math that most Americans truly did not care. I don’t think I ever really came back from that.

My toxic trait is thinking I can tell if a movie is good by the first five minutes and unfortunately always being right.

I think about how Skype fumbled the pandemic at least once a week.

Nothing humbles a person faster than filling out a March Madness bracket and immediately watching the universe disagree.

If canceled flights and gas prices make you angrier than a president joking through a war and bragging about bombing another country, the problem is not your wallet.

When USLPA players stand still, the labor movement stands with them. A cut to the crowd can’t hide what’s really happening on the field: players deserve fair pay, safe conditions, and a real voice on the job. #StandUpForStandards

Having some of the most thoroughly redacted thoughts of my life.

People do not recognize this but sports are the strongest evidence for the power of labor bargaining. Why do rookies get multi million signing bonuses at the NFL? It’s not cause the owners wanted to give them

I’ve worked in organized labor for decades. The USL bosses sent the players a bunch of union-busting propaganda the other day and this collective action is awe-inspiring.

This needs to happen everywhere in daily life. Protesting in the public eye works. It pisses off corporate to no end.

Hell yea, man.

solidarity to the players!

There is strength in a union

Louisville and Lexington players paused the USL Championship season opener for 60 seconds after kickoff, letting the clock run without play. A fearless show of unity from the USL Players Association as negotiations reach a critical stage. It’s time for the league to act. #StandUpForStandards

With a CBA deal still pending, Lexington and Louisville begin the season with a minute-long moment of stillness.

Just for the record, Team USA women have out-medaled Team USA men at three consecutive Winter Olympics and four consecutive Summer Olympics.

Big Tech doesn’t want pro-worker AI guardrails eating into their profits, so they’re preparing to flood local politicians with campaign donations. America's unions are in our state houses to make sure workers have a seat at the table to fight back.

Throughout his life, Rev. Jackson fought tirelessly for workers, both at home and around the world. At every turn, he reminded us that the fight for good jobs, living wages, and union rights is inseparable from the fight for justice and equality. May he rest in power.

Like 75% of the US Olympic curlers are from Minnesota. A lot of them curl out of two clubs in Saint Paul, one club is in Frogtown, a neighborhood that has been very heavily targeted by ICE. These curlers are good neighbors.

In every life may I be Latina ✨🙏

With the #SuperBowl just days away, we’re excited to see our NFLPA union brothers play the big game! Whether on the gridiron or the factory floor, America’s unions have you covered 🏈

me when someone asks where the olympics are

@governor.ca.gov, listen to working people. www.politico.com/news/2026/02...

AI should deliver progress for workers, not just profits for big tech CEOs. AFL-CIO President @lizshuler.bsky.social joined @californialabor.bsky.social and labor leaders from across the country to address how we need guardrails to protect our rights, jobs and freedoms so workers can benefit from AI

People get hung up (reasonably) on the "walkable" cities frame because many people cannot walk or have problems walking I propose: human scale cities as in: a city where the spaces I am in are built for human bodies, and not two ton high speed murder machines

I am obsessed with the story of the first times people wanted to build gas stations in cities "yeah so I want to put this extremely flammable toxic liquid in the middle of the city and also I want non-specialists to handle it all day long" city planners at the time were like "...excuse me?"

you don't know your neighbors because of cars your city doesn't make enough in taxes because of cars busses are slow because of cars they won't build light rail because of cars your city's air is awful because of cars one of the leading causes of death and injury from accident: cars

ambulances are so loud because of cars you can't walk to get a coffee because of cars you have to drive everywhere because everything is built far apart because of cars you have to wear reflective gear to jog in your neighborhood because of cars you fear for your dog's life because of cars

this is so central to who I am

ICE is deploying AI surveillance against protesters. This isn’t new or isolated — it’s the same surveillance tools already being used to monitor workers. Unchecked AI puts civil liberties at risk at work, in public, and in our democracy.

We stand in solidarity with @mnaflcio.org and all workers in Minnesota peacefully opposing the federal government’s militarized immigration enforcement. We honor the courage of those speaking up for human dignity and demand that ICE leave Minnesota.

Minnesota Labor Takes On ICE: Inside the Unprecedented Union Response Minnesota @AFLCIO (@MNAFLCIO) President Bernie Burnham discusses ICE immigration enforcement raids, & the labor movement’s unprecedented response following the killing of Rene Nicole Good in Minneapolis. 🧵

America’s unions stand in solidarity with our @mnaflcio.org union family as they stand up to the federal government’s militarized immigration enforcement, fight for truth and freedom, and demand ICE peacefully leave Minnesota. Our solidarity is our strength. When we fight, we win.

Minneapolis workers are the best among us. Facing freezing temps to peacefully stand for truth, freedom, and calling for ICE to leave Minnesota is true solidarity in action.

Until the year of our lord 2025 I don’t think I had ever thought about the Packers. But I married into the Bears and now I have watched three games. The cheeseheads are my sworn enemy. I have a makeshift altar with a cheese grater. I wish them nothing but the worst.

This is a BAR

The Christmas season is coming to an end and so is our sixth season! We’re ending the season talking about cursed children’s books, Barry Keoghan’s sex appeal, and the tale of Sir Gawain. To all a Green Knight! ✨
