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

this is so fucking cruel
Wisconsin Republicans are introducing a bill that mandates women use ‘catch kits’ when they have a miscarriage or abortion at home—forcing them to bag up their pregnancy tissue and bring it to the doctor as medical waste.

The American Alliance of Museums put out its annual industry snapshot and it's not great. Trump's targeting of museum programming had downstream effects and put a "chill on corporate philanthropy." n.pr/43lIZa7
Museums had a rough 2025: Report shows lower attendance, lost grants, less money

100% this and also those shows can be so fun cause the people that did come WANT to be there. we once had a great show in Nashville for 6 people
Some advice from your pals in Perennial:
If a show is lightly attended, play even harder. Go nuts; give those folks your very best
Because:
A) You should reward the folks that *did* show up
B) every cool band in history has a story about how they tore the roof off a show with 4 people in the crowd

every time I go to that underground part of Rockefeller center with all the shops and restaurants (which is not so often anymore now that I don't work up there) I feel like I'm in bioshock and I'm just mildly stressed the whole time
