now that there is (rightfully) more attention being paid to rent-stabilized apartments, i really hope a critical mass emerges once folks realize how many of us are getting overcharged far beyond the legal hike each year. please request your rent history: www.amirentstabilized.com

NEWS: Major unions @nationalnurses.bsky.social and @ueunion.org are publicly demanding that the U.S. immediately halt military aid to Israel, recognize Palestinian sovereignty, and intervene “to put an end to the violence, starvation, and injustices being inflicted on the Palestinian people.”
Email text: National Nurses United and UE call for end to military operations, blockade in Palestine Unions demand U.S. recognize Palestine’s sovereignty and demand that Israeli government end violence, starvation, and injustices on Palestinian people National Nurses United (NNU), the country’s largest union and professional association of registered nurses, and the United Electrical, Radio, and Machine Workers of America (UE) — together representing over a quarter million union members — sent a letter today to President Trump to demand that “the Israeli government permanently end its military operations and blockade in Palestine, and that the United States immediately recognize the sovereignty of Palestine.” “Our unions concur with the United Nations Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and Israel, which found that Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip,” stated the letter. “The United States must intervene immediately to put an end to the violence, starvation, and injustices being inflicted on the Palestinian people. Email text continued: The attack by Hamas on October 7, 2023 was an atrocity. But Israel’s collective punishment of millions of Palestinians and destruction of Gaza over two years constitute a crime against humanity,” the letter continued. “More than 65,000 Palestinians have been killed, including nearly 20,000 children, while 1.9 million have been displaced and countless others have been severely injured and have lost their family members since October 2023. The death toll includes many of our union siblings, including hundreds of health care workers, media workers, engineers, and civil servants killed on the job.” The letter concluded with a demand for “urgent action to immediately halt military aid to Israel; secure a permanent and immediate ceasefire that ensures an end to the mass killing and starvation of innocent Palestinian civilians; ensure that the remaining hostages in Gaza and political prisoners in Israel are safely returned home; and recognize Palestinian sovereignty and restore the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination.”

Very worried about media literacy, but Bill Burr truly makes the case for PERSON LITERACY, the sheer number of "surprised" folks is blowing my mind

Sep 24th 1975 - After being allowed back on the air for a final farewell, Howard Beale launches into a rant about life being "bullshit", causing the ratings to spike.

📽️📅 Network (1976)
3 Screenshots from the movie "Network" (1976): First, a newsroom control room filled with men at monitors and staff watching intently as a broadcast goes live, with the subtitle reading “Good evening. Today is Wednesday, September the 24th…”. Second, an older news anchor in a suit sits at a desk under studio lights, leaning forward with a grave expression as the subtitle reads “…and this is my last broadcast.” Third, a man in a suit speaks urgently into a phone in the control room as people move in the background, with the subtitle reading “He’s saying that life is bullshit and it is. What are you screaming about?”.
