😭😭😭 it was so good to have Marie on our public picket line today!
Very honored to be apart of the @kickstarterunited.org virtual rally today. Thank you to the kickstarter united folks who made so many of our careers what they are today - the creators will have your back!

Apologies for the last-minute cancellation, we need to postpone our D&D Twitch stream. Stay tuned for our virtual picket though!
Our streaming schedule for the week of November 3rd! We're hopefully wrapping up our one-shot and then doing some encounters from the Deck of Old School Encounter by Kickstarter creator Phil Reed! Follow us on www.twitch.tv/kickstarteru... to know when we go live!

The @nytguildtech.bsky.social have been steadfast allies of ours throughout this whole thing and instrumental to showing us how to strike!
One year ago we took a step into the unknown as a unit. We walked out on a ULP strike, fighting for just cause, fair wages, and remote worker protections. A supermajority of our unit participated in this historic action, and it worked - we won our first contract.

Collective action is not easy, but it brings results. Fight the fight, show up for each other - we can keep pushing for better. ✊💪
