When I was at the South San Francisco Public Library in the mid-2010s, management demanded that the staff must go up to any and all patrons and ask them if they need help, even if the patron clearly did not need or want help and were doing fine and just wanted to be left alone. It made nobody happy.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

"''55 Packard Clipper Deluxe 4-Door. Beautiful light green finish. Not for the Elvis Presley set but for the older generation who like to roll along in solid comfort."
Because young people famously do not like to be comfortable, I guess? It's such a weird burn.

Fresno Bee, November 7, 1980. If I'm reading this correctly, Friday night's lineup was a marathon of fascinatingly bad movies by famously mediocre directors: Ed Wood's PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE, Phil Tucker's ROBOT MONSTER, Ted V. Mikels' ASTRO-ZOMBIES, and Neil Young's JOURNEY THROUGH THE PAST.

Toledo Blade, November 7, 1975. I recognize that the festival's theme being DIRTY OLD MEN NEED LIBERATION TOO is tongue-in-cheek, but still, the reaction of cishet men to anybody who isn't them getting any sort of advancement in civil rights is always to stamp their feet and cry "But what about us?"

Reminder: It benefits nobody in a way to list sex assigned at birth on passports, there is no requirement to include it, this is just about punishing trans etc. Americans.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court will allow the Trump administration to enforce its anti-trans and anti-nonbinary passport policy during litigation.
The unsigned, four-paragraph order effectively reverses two lower-court decisions. The Democratic appointees dissent.

![SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES
No. 25A319
DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES, ET AL. v. ASHTON ORR, ET AL.
ON APPLICATION FOR STAY
[November 6, 2025]
This case concerns an Executive Branch policy requiring
all new passports to display an individual’s biological sex at
birth. The United States District Court for the District of
Massachusetts preliminarily enjoined the Government
from enforcing the policy, and the First Circuit declined to
stay the injunction pending appeal. The Government then
filed this stay application. Applying our familiar stay fac-
tors at this preliminary stage, we grant the application.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:36eqtmzysqf7wsslczw4uxcd/bafkreievxyvqikl7wmrg5jkqhsrta5l5xfq272x7caunvxka7vtuzp7hoa@jpeg)
