I am really frustrated that I am getting a ton of emails from @washingtonpost.com asking me to resubscribe. I gave y'all money for a subscription. Your paper couldn't even post an opinion on who to support for president...and here we are now.

Kate's thread (below) covers the waterfront on the looming #CSU #CalState #faculty strike—including enough for NYT to issue an informed update without putting their own people on overtime. Here's a separate gift link to the original article:
