New from @noamscheiber.bsky.social, featuring @emilymazo.bsky.social @js-tan.bsky.social @techworkerscoalition.org @alphabetworkersunion.org & many more: “tech worker activism has continued amid the crackdown, albeit more cautiously” www.nytimes.com/2025/12/26/b...

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

WE WON! After 42 days of striking we have a tentative agreement in hand that protects our existing 4 day work week, establishes a minimum salary, and adds protections against AI replacing jobs at our workplace!

Management is already using the hype over AI to make workers fearful. Workers need a plan to get a say over the tools we use and how we use them.

We strongly condemn @CondéNast’s consolidation plans for Teen Vogue, a move that is clearly designed to blunt the award-winning magazine’s insightful journalism at a time when it is needed the most. More from our statement:

“I’m strong and I want to have like fifty kids and a farm” of course you do. You’re twelve. “I don’t want to eat vegetables I think steak and French fries is the only meal” hell yeah homie you’re twelve. “Maybe if there’s crime we should just send the army” bless your heart my twelve year old buddy

Just very weird to follow politics knowing that there's going to be a recession that'll make everything we're talking about feel like it happened in prehistoric times.

An update: management has chosen not to recognize our Product, Engineering, and Humble Bundle colleagues as part of IGNCG, instead insisting on a time-consuming NLRB hearing, which took place last week. Help us spread the word: we will not be divided. We are IGN, and we will always stand together.

Bob Mould wrote this song as a Pixies parody/homage, but the joke's on him because it's somehow actually the best Pixies song of them all

Who can forget the Swiss-Austrian Union, or its famous capital - Istanbul.

In addition to giving the contract to himself and so stealing public money the very concept of this thing is a crazy level boondoggle www.reuters.com/business/aer...

During WWII the US deployed a Naval ship whose sole purpose was to make, store, and provide ice cream to troops actively deployed to heavy combat areas. Now you can't even have 9 ball

What an extraordinary way to start an opinion. (Spoiler: Judge Amy Berman Jackson holds that she must take action now to prevent the unlawful dissolution of the CFPB.) storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

None of these morons knows COBOL, so they will be asking Grok to do the translation. What could possibly go wrong. Side note: I like how Wired calls DOGE "the so-called Department of Government Efficiency" I wish all media would do this.

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

Morehouse College transferred every penny of debt they held in collections to the Debt Collective, amounting to $10M for 2800 students. Instead of collecting on it, we canceled it all completely. This is a no strings attached gift. www.businessinsider.com/student-loan...

Gotta get in on the ground floor of Gnostic shitposting.

here it is with context

greatest reply I ever saw on twitter was when someone was asked to explain something, and they said, "no," and the asker said "is that because the explanation will make you look fucked-up and weird?"

"discombobulate" is the sole survivor of the 1830s American fad for fake compound words in the style of mock Latin. Others that petered out with time were "scrumplicate" for eat, "spifflicate" for confuse, and the incandescent "absquatulate" for quit or abandon.

Everyone always makes fun of pandas' low sex drives. Listen, you don't understand. You're ignorantly anthropomorphizing. They don't get to have sex with a beautiful woman. They have to have sex with a panda.

I'm an idiot savant. I'm so fucking good at being an idiot.

area 51 has a room in the bottom of a basement with like mission impossible lasers surrounding it and soforth and thats where they keep a sheet of paper with the cardinality of the continuum

“So who’s writing the headline for the big moon landing?” “Oh, I assigned it to Jim.” “Jim? The guy who always finds a slightly weird way to phrase everything?” “Yeah, but don’t worry, he promised this time he’d be extra careful to make it sound completely normal.”

something cool going down at work today ✊

Mathematicians made up π because they were bored. It was a huge headache for artists, architects, and engineers, who had to change every circle in the world to match the new regulations.

I used to spend time online to goof off at work. Now I'm unemployed, so I come to Bluesky to resimulate the experience of having bosses tell me what to do all day.
