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.

I've got so many thoughts on this as someone who worked for 350.org in the US in some of the best years. Mostly, I'm sad to see the state of movements in the US and sad to see a former powerhouse organization fall apart.

It’s about to get ugly. Odds are millions are about to go hungry, starting at the end of this week. Our duty is not just to feed as many people as we can, but to organize, transform underlying conditions, beat fascism, and not allow this travesty to continue.

Millions are about to go hungry. We need to build power with them.
It's time to feed each other and organize for power at the same time

"Families are living a care nightmare. In just a few days, more than 24 million of us will see our health care premiums more than double... Allowing the ACA tax credits to expire will sever a lifeline that millions of caregiving families and workers rely on to afford health care."

Just a reminder- people like Newsom, want trans people to go away because it is not politically comfortable for him. He is actually as bad as the republicans who are calling for our death.

This bill now goes to the Senate where it’s likely to pass.

Love how natural gender binary is that we have to ban haircuts to secure it.
We reported on this a few days ago, but I want to point out this headline because this is where we are at.

A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.

HAIRCUTS.

This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.

The bill would allow anyone to sue someone who affirms a young person's transition, and it specifically mentions hairstyles.
