Hey everyone, thank you so much for the outpouring of support. I need to pay rent, and I launched a GoFundMe spot.fund/LahutRentFund

Something worth noting: Rockstar is leaning HEAVILY on the excuse that the unionising employees were "leaking private company information" They want people to assume this means game info or assets. But I will bet you CASH MONEY this translates to: 'they were comparing salaries and work contracts"

More important to me than my identity, I am also the Vice President of the NewsGuild of New York, and targeting me with a blatantly retaliatory termination like this feels like an egregious shot against our union and against media workers as a whole.

Solidarity with our Condé comrades, always and forever. They deserve better and are entitled to the justice they deserve, ASAP

Justice for Alma Avalle, Jake Lahut and the two other employees fired by Condé Nast for questioning their management’s decision to fold Teen Vogue

Union baristas are calling on allies to STOP BUYING STARBUCKS if we go on ULP strike. If our communities stand with us in action, we can take back power from the billionaires & CEOs. nocontractnocoffee.org

thank you for the outpouring of support! those of us laid off from Teen Vogue yesterday are now sharing our GoFundMe to help us cover our emergency expenses now that we've lost our incomes, as we get back on our feet.

as my fellow Teen Voguers come over here I’ll be sharing their accounts, throw them a follow, offer them work, and we’ll be launching a gofundme/something similar soon!

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:

This is the first CBA the for the paper's newsroom in 34 years. This is by all measures a historic accomplishment. When we formed this union five years ago, we aimed to safeguard against the wrath of Alden, a hedge fund notorious for scrapping newspapers for parts.

The power of organization and solidarity! ✊

Hey, all! Two months into striking, things are getting… uncomfortably tight. I’m so proud of doing my part for collective action with my BCGEU colleagues ✊, but my bank account is growling and my bills are grinning. If you’ve enjoyed my work and have the means to help out: PayPal.me/aidanmoher

I don’t think people realize how absolutely fire the sbwu merch is unioncoffeegear.com/product/neve...

Tomorrow, our unfair labor practice strike against @post-gazette.com marks it's third full year. Three years of fighting the most lawless union-busting campaign can be tiring, but we're never going to quit fighting. Last night, we were uplifted to see a new sign adorning the Pittsburgh skyline...

The ending of remote working on titles like RS and Pitchfork strikes me as utterly insane. Throwing away veteran contributors for what? American journalists have always lived all over the map
