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

I simply refuse to accept that police ever have to look like this. this is just pure cosplay. it should be illegal for cops to be dressed like soldiers going to war.

Maintaining a transphobic line as an institution is indicative of other problems that institution may not be so eager to advertise.

the economy is on fire (derogatory)

the stupid idea of tech as “oh wow the world will be saved with shiny consumer objects” turned into “the premise of technology means the weirdest most hateful people will order your world without social sanction or permission, via scams, govt murder contracts” in like a decade and a half tops huh?

The far right is obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Musk keeps posting about "hobbits" because modern scientific racism owes more to fantasy worlds and gaming systems than genetic science, and they see both as effective mediums for right-wing propaganda www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Democratic voters, Democratic Reps, Democratic Senators

if they wanted to make a difference, MLB would keep the pitch props, but, instead of the money being deposited in the sportsbook, the money would immediately be sent to a family member, and would initiate an immediate phone call to 1-800-Gambler

"Mallmann has always been an evangelist for the magnificence of vegetables (his most recent cookbook is “Green Fire”), and so the list of entrées includes an entire head of cauliflower, which tastes like an entire head of cauliflower." lol

please do not compare this man to juggalos who are largely cool, funny, actually working class, trans inclusive, fat positive, and extremely anti Republican

BREAKING: We won! Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years. pghguild.com/2025/11/10/p...

Anyway, I think Dems are right to believe subsidy expiration, because many Americans will suffer and maybe die, is going to hurt Republicans in the midterms. A less harmful way to do well in elections, though, is to offer voters a compelling vision for why they should vote, affirmatively, for you.

Slotkin out now with a statement saying she is a No

But what do you think about current Dem leadership and are you calling for a change after this massive failure? That's power you have right now. We should be asking this and related questions of all Senate Dems. Stay tuned for more tomorrow.

Every few weeks we gotta make posts like this”call your dem reps to tell them to not vote to allow Lord Killdude to shove people into a volcano” and then the dem reps go “we’ve made an amazing deal where Lord Killdude can have his volcano so long as he promises not to shove people into it”

It would have been better to simply cave on day one than do this. how can you ask anyone to suffer through a shutdown ever again, if you can deliver *nothing*?

Appreciate that this man went with a single clear sentence rather than the 6 paragraph essay format preferred by most Dem candidates and electeds

if you think it is important enough to eat a career-killing bullet for this shitty deal, i will respect your wishes, but your career has to eat that bullet

reading pathetic Dem Senators' statements on why they are proud to be gigantic suckers who are also fools and chumps:

If Dems accept this deal, it will help the GOP cement the following ideas into the public conscience over the coming 4 weeks: -Shutdown was Dems fault/responsibility -They did it for nothing -They caved to Trump Having accepted responsibility, it will also cripple them in the follow up debate.

i do not care about "the future of the democratic party" as discussed by professional-class bozos who cannot see beyond their next client. i care about not living under a military occupation that is disappearing my neighbors

It's also unfortunate how cowed the "Medicare for All" program is, because if it was assertive, it would be a good counter to this. If an insurance company can't negotiate prices, why would the little guy? Why won't prices just go up across the board because now everyone knows he has extra money?

Government is shut down. Chaos in airports. 42 million going hungry. 24 million face skyrocketing healthcare costs. Economy in turmoil. And the president of the United States is in the Fox broadcast booth calling plays for a football game.

I thought the Israel-Joe Rogan overt propaganda ads that ran a dozen+ times during Friday's Red Wings game on @fandueltv.bsky.social would be the worst reactionary nonsense I'd face this weekend as a Detroit sports fan and yet! here we are

I have been actively watching contracts and surge funding over the last few days and what I would say to my friends in Baltimore is “be absolutely ready, right now.”

I told @peters.senate.gov it's better for him to resign right now than to vote to pass the CR. If he can't be brave and hold the line, that's fine, but step aside, Pops

Schumer and the Dems are about to teach Trump the lesson that they’ll cave whenever he abuses power to sufficiently hurt people.

Call Slotkin too, Michigan, she is not to be trusted even though she occasionally shows glimmers of getting it

Or maybe Senate Democrats are aware of how pissed off voters will be? This alleged deal guarantees a BILLION dollars in spending for security and police at the Capitol, and then a pinky promise to hold a vote on ACA subsidies that will surely lose. Not sure a billion will even be enough but OK.

"Rooftop solar is spreading fast in Jamaica, and people with panels got their power back almost immediately. The ‘entire neighborhood benefits,’ one resident said."

Rick Scott is right, government funding for health insurance is such a scam. Google “Rick Scott Medicare fraud” to learn more about this important issue

we had a term in a citation title flagged for removal in a routine federal grant application this year 🙃

have just explained the Lady Byng Trophy to my spouse and he is flabbergasted "so it's for doing charity work off the ice?" buddy it's for the most gentlemanly player, the biggest sweetie pie on the ice, then he gets a Lady award for it, what's not clicking

the story of this shutdown is that Trump and the Republicans have played the politics significantly worse than Chuck Schumer and folks that's a genuine accomplishment

bring back maligning racism as the mark of a stupid person. prejudice is the mark of an idiot. if you believe that shit i bet you also don’t wipe your ass

the spouse and I were discussing Red Wings who wore #26 as one does and I was like '...Joe Kocur?' and thought about other names while he looked it up and reported that current player Elmer Soderblom wears #26 and I replied 'he's #85??' and anyway it turns out the Google AI summary still sucks shit

Her husband told her that detainees at Broadview had to get up at 5am to get in line for one bathroom. He often peed himself. One time he had to wait until 2pm to use the bathroom. You could only use the bathroom once a day. He said the agents would beat you if you used the bathroom on yourself.

The AFL-CIO should start throwing some money towards labor journalism. If it was done right (i.e. with them accepting that journalists must have full editorial control over what’s published, whether or not union leaders like what they have to say) it could really have such a hugely positive impact

I wrote about ICE and the various ways they’re carrying out this regime’s eugenicist agenda. Their use of tear gas and pepper bullets. Their aggressive arrest techniques. The lack of adequate medical care or infection control in the camps. The utter disregard for disability accommodations

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default. Here's how to turn it off. First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

People mock Spirit Air for many reasons but have they considered: all Airbus fleet?

flying between two of the 40 busiest US airports next week and i am preparing my body for possibly oncogenic levels of wry ironic detachment

one of my spicy takes, for example, is that limits on strikes are unconstitutional under the 13th Amendment, because if we have a right to be free from forced labor, we must necessarily have a right to stop working and negotiate the conditions of our labor
