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

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

I love reading novels written in the form of letters. The library delivered The Correspondent by Virginia Evans to me today. When I reserved it, I didn't know the main character has macular degeneration. Since I was recently diagnosed with this myself, shout out to the Gods of Synchronicity.

Please believe me when I tell you:

Double the fuck down on your spiritual practice now.

You are going to need it.

And no, that doesn't have to be a prayer-god thing.

The thing that sustains and nourishes you.

That makes you more alive to yourself, the world, others.

More present.

This looks like a great way to mobilize, agitate, & call needed attention. Pass it on!
Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

My story is indicative of my late teens, early 20’s: went drinking, passed out with The Stranger by Camus on my face, woke up 30 minutes before class. Assignment was to write 12 page paper. Typed 3 comparing the novel’s themes to some painting or other. A+. Remember nothing.
I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

I too cannot replace my daughter or my child.

@gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social
If the govt shuts down, I could lose work.

If it stays open at the cost of gender-affirming care, I could lose my child.

I can replace lost income. I can't replace my daughter.

@gallego.senate.gov @captmarkkelly.bsky.social, don't sacrifice trans people on the altar of political convenience.
1. It's shutdown day, and anti-trans provisions are on the line... either today, or in a few more weeks if a clean continuing resolution passes.

Trump posted a video this morning blaming a shutdown on trans people and immigrants.

Here is your shutdown guide.

Generally speaking, it is bad for the stability of regimes to make the penalty for disagreeing with regime policy the same as open rebellion. If you're gonna be in for a pound no matter what, you may as well go all out.

Tried to schedule Covid, flu, and rsv vaccines. I’m on immunosuppressive meds (three of them) and have an autoimmune disorder. The CDC has placed a hold on them in the state. RFK is trying to kill me.

I spent two days with Platner and, as you’ll read, was as impressed by his theory of power as I was by his policies. I think it’s FAR more important than the “how do you talk to Trump voters” question.
