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 quite the listen. Carney has commit just 900,000 to 10/day and 5 million to universal dental and a fucking billion to AI. A total fuck you to every progressive that bought the Elbows up Rhetoric. They even canned the yacht tax to appease the billionaires.

His proposed budget tomorrow is a massive cut to social programs, huge breaks to corporations, and giant spending on the military and the RCMP.

It's a war on the working class

Yes. All the empirics on misinformation indicate that the way to defeat bad ideas is to mock and marginalize them. Constantly declaring "hey the far right isn't so bad" is a terrible strategy both morally and electorally.

Dems should be way more comfortable saying "look at these fucking psychos"
Progressives really hope, and maybe even believe, that there is some magic thing they can hijack to attract conservative voters.

The focus on this mythical quest is the central reason they lose.
I found this piece sad too, but mostly because it is part of a years-long effort by progressives to understand what "really" animates Trump voters.

We already know! It is racism, misogyny and misinformation. I know that sounds condescending or whatever but it's simply what all evidence suggests.

“We don’t have to approach and criticize this album as art, because it isn’t art. The Life of a Showgirl is made of Shein quality rip-offs of other people’s songs that are constructed shoddily and sold in ginormous quantities. Art takes time and care. This is profit. It’s content.”

NEW: Neon, an app that pays you to record your calls so your audio can be used to train AI, and already rose to the top #5 free apps on Apple's App Store, has gone offline after a security lapse.

We found the app exposed users' phone numbers, call recordings, and text transcripts of those calls.
