Just voted. I reckon this will probably pass due to people's desperation and the fact that our union is pushing to pass it so they can look like they've done something for their members.
lol, voting begins on friday whether to accept a 3.5% increase per year for 3 years when right now we're like 20% behind everyone else in the sector. guess what I'm voting.

The USA, where the summary execution of an unarmed man can now be justified by the actual president, because on a separate occasion he kicked the tail light of a "very expensive government vehicle."

So, going to hazard a guess here, if a video shows up, it's going to turn out to be "AI enhanced" yeah, that wasn't a question.
Good grief, coworker that quit a few weeks ago left his spotify logged into the office tv, they figured out he was listening to it, now he and the aggrieved office girls are having a fight by putting on different songs with the song titles being the messages to each other. It's getting spicy.

I don't know, I think a step too far is law enforcement murdering innocent citizens in the streets.
All the anti-war and anti-occupation protestors were right. All the far leftists were right. All the “woke scolds” and your friend who’s “too woke” were right. They were somehow even more right than they may have realized at the time. But really, it was always obvious they were right.
