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

BREAKING: Starbucks workers have launched a massive, nationwide strike.

Baristas in 40 cities have walked off the job on the busiest day of Starbucks' year.

Upwards of 12,000 @sbworkersunited.org members could ultimately go on strike as the union escalates.

Does anyone do like an FAQ sesh with (trusted) readers on their work? Like for pre-launch practice? For writers whose work has mostly lived in our heads forever and our brains turn to potato when it's time to speak about it out loud to strangers impromptu?

Is Pluribus not just a more protracted Rick & Morty's Unity bit or was I only vaguely paying attention to the one episode and am summoning irritating things by drawing that comparison in public
