🚨 PECO STRIKE ENDS 🚨 After three days on the picket lines, PA’s IBEW 614 have declared victory in their historic strike against PECO. Members still need to ratify the new contract but the union is hailing it as a big win for wages, pensions, benefits, and more. Read their statement below:

Also, anyone who was against the expansion of the format has been proven wrong by Cape Verde alone.

If anyone near you is crying about sports this is probably how they feel

Jorts says always anchor your TV, dressers, and other furniture to the wall.

Can someone call me if Mitch…

I apologize for almost knocking over the television in my excitement. In my defense it should be tethered, what if we get an earthquake

A friend of mine is an undocumented immigrant and has been hiding at the Great American State Fair bc he knows no one is there.

Happy Father’s Day to the dumpster, who is arguably my dad

All workers deserve a union and yes, that includes union staff who are workers

Walk off the job ON STRIKE and go watch ducks. It's called protected conduckted action.

When workers fear retaliation or deportation, they’re less likely to report workplace abuse — emboldening employers to exploit them without accountability. https://bit.ly/4u46iQi

I will be working during the game tonight so please everyone, post videos of the booing

Cost of living so high but it’s still free to hold my hand

WOOOOOOO more more more!

A wonderful sentence from this story, describing the video of the man who threw a rock at a seal for no reason getting beat up by a local: "Meanwhile, an unidentified gentleman begins wailing on him."

Weingarten would be a beautiful name for a cat

If this conversation could result in discipline or a change in material working conditions I respectfully insist on a union steward being present for Rigatoni

Jorts don’t step on my sandwich. Jorts stop walking on my neck. Jorts don’t pee in the sink. What happened to freedom

It’s true

So I made a shirt. I’m not a graphic designer… but there is a shirt with Dandy saying hi on it available. If anyone buys any this month I’ll donate any profits to @gibsonsbookstore.bsky.social ‘s Prismatic Reads Program.

If you don’t have a union - you can build one! Four steps. Not saying it’s easy but it is possible and it’s extremely cool

Join your union. Together we're unbutterably strong

It is May Day, a day for workers and solidarity. I usually do a fundraiser but not this year because I am under federal investigation for being too unbutterable and I don’t want the feds in your money

Yes it appears there were shots fired at the white house correspondents dinner. But no It didn’t

I’m going to do it. I’m going to eat the chocolate. I’m going to gobble it all up unless you eat it

Last month AZ declined to recommend an enforceable workplace heat safety standard. Now a commission is considering next steps. We won’t back down. We need real protections: 👉🏾 Access to cool water 👉🏾 AC breakrooms 👉🏾 Training to recognize heat illness

As a farm worker in a state that doesn't allow overtime for farm workers, Katie Porter can fuck off

"For more than an hour, several employees said, workers in the facility were instructed to continue fetching totes, picking items off shelves and loading them onto trucks for delivery as the man lay dead, and management figured out their next steps."

Saying dumb shit like this doesn’t make any sense when you’re trying to become the governor either Katie

I just watched a video of Katie Porter saying farm workers getting overtime pay is a regulation that “doesn’t make sense”

Sorry I can’t help clean up right now I’m actually super busy
