This weekend and always, NO LILIES FOR KITTIES. www.fda.gov/animal-veter...

Pssst. Hey. Hey you. You lookin for a cat? I got watchu need.

See that? THAT is what you do when something dark comes to light. It's the only response; and it's a simple one to do and every other organization should do the same.

Important cat business. You wouldn’t understand. Photo from my collection, 1972.

UFW President Teresa Romero urged the public to respect the women who came forward and give them “the space they deserve to process this.” bit.ly/3NbqyQH 📸 Larry Valenzuela

This is heartbreaking. And enraging. It would hardly be the first time that a massive movement for peace & justice has concealed profound misogyny on the part of its hero/leader. UFW seems absolutely right to take the emerging stories completely seriously.

An actual for real baby angel I met at the shelter today. Her name is Munchie and she is very, very, very sweet. ❤️ Available in northwestern Vermont! www.hsccvt.org/Cats#sl_embe...

Hey guys something happened to the paper towel

My cat, Yuki, loves Jeans and @jortsthecat.bsky.social

I really needed that hour but they stole it

LOOK AT THOSE BEANS

me every single day

Pictured, a dog and a kitten letting the photographer know that they would gladly help him eat his donut if he wanted them to.

of the two articles currently circulating about Sheri’s Ranch which feature Jupiter Jetson, this one is way more worth your time. there is a fascinating and important story in the unfolding workers’ rights movement in Nevada’s legal brothels that will resonate with anyone who’s been a contractor

"small government"

Let's see if we can raise $10,000 today for red state or national queer orgs. Post proof here in the replies that you donated to a red state or national queer organization and I will share. Who's with me? (I can't donate myself because I'm a journalist who covers these orgs)

The QTs on this are a good read

whenever he is sitting around looking upset we've started calling him "Upsetti Spaghetti, the Italian cat" and i'm pretty sure it just makes him madder

I’m not sure how much is breaking through the sunday news cycle about Mexico but remember the USA puts all this pressure to get the cartel leaders and provides absolutely no support with aftermath like this. Who buys the drugs? USA. Who supplies their guns? USA also

Reading people. Body language. Knowing how to connect with people totally unlike you and with different backgrounds and beliefs. Defusing tense situations. Gaining trust. High endurance, pain tolerance, and work ethic. Reaction time. Prioritizing order of execution. Anticipating people’s needs. Tons

It is between late night and early morning. Time to sing the song of my people to make sure everyone knows nothing is wrong

Jean and Jorts give incredibly useful advice about how to advocate for your rights in the workplace. There should not be assumptions made by management about how the toilet paper got in that state.

Say "meow" to this labor union cat, possibly owned by then @uaw.org President Walter P. Reuther. From the archives at the @reutherlibrary.bsky.social.

Not the invocation of the union steward, I’m howling (those magnets are on the file cabinets of all my favorite faculty)

So, early reports show someone dragged a roll of toilet paper AND a box of tissues onto the chair and took one million bites. We need more facts before we jump to conclusions

Everyone who worked at this camp should go to prison.

Magic beans

Sex work is work. Solidarity to these workers as they unionize. And kudos to my @wbng.org parent union, @cwaunion.bsky.social, for supporting the organizing. www.cbsnews.com/news/sex-wor...

every day i'm saying this, eventually people will listen

SB 6045, a bill to allow farmworker collective bargaining in WA state, will soon be voted on. This bill is critical for WA farmworkers like Windmill mushroom workers who've been fighting to get a contract since 2022. If you live in WA tell your state Senator to support SB 6045.

I saw a live birthed harbor seal pup for the first time in my life today. I thought it would be horrifying because I have a weak stomach, but it turned to UNGODLY CUTE very fast! Using this thread for some moments in the minutes after. All shot on my z8, edited on phone for now. 🦭 🦑

"I fired all the workers at the cat cafe because they wanted to unionize" bro you are the villain.

We have SIX DAYS to get this out of the Washington State Senate. NEXT TUESDAY is the legislative deadline to get bills out their house of origin. If it doesn't pass by then, it likely dies till 2027. Since farmworkers were written out of labor laws in 1937, we have to win at the state level.

DO IT

things have not changed here. please, if you’re not in minnesota, do not look away. please prepare where you are. this is what they’ll do to your community next.

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

I understand I was really disruptive today but in my defense I’m literally a silly little guy

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

We're highlighting reporting from @inthesetimes.com on the recent abduction of worker organizer and NewsGuild-CWA member, Eustaquio Orozco Verdusco. We ask that you please sign the petition demanding his release: actionnetwork.org/petitions/si...

While watching Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday, you may have noticed the artist climbing electrical poles with other performers while singing “El Apagón. The song, literally translating to “the blackout," references the devastating and ongoing power outages in Puerto Rico.

I have been informed that when high school kids are asked a question on the spot in class, it’s a verbal meme to say “counting or not counting gang violence?”

Haha get her ass @ufw.bsky.social

Sports people: it’s ok to text your gay friend when it’s almost half time so they don’t miss Bad Bunny

Happy Superb Owl day to all who celebrate.

3 times IN HIS WHOLE LIFE

A boy just called me beautiful

journalists are workers who deserve to be paid fairly for our labor and I think that far too few consumers of media recognize or even care about this fact
