No surprise here: Disney illegally underpaid workers at their Anaheim theme park in violation of the city’s ‘living wage’ law. Stiffing their employees and creatives to pay their $27 million/year CEO seems par for the course for them.
Disneyland workers could get a pay hike to nearly $20 an hour after living-wage win
A California appeals court ruled that Disneyland Resort workers are covered by Anaheim's 2018 voter initiative requiring Walt Disney Co. to boost wages.

executives are important because when you're making something you've poured your heart and soul into it's critical that a guy who's never made anything in his entire life gets to ruin it a little in order to feel better about getting cut off on the 10 this morning

If you're enjoying Bluesky and you don't want it to turn into the cesspool of hate that Twitter did, you best speak up now. Cut that 'I don't know what to say' shit out and amplify Black and queer voices, because the BS team ain't listening to us.

My mom is truly wild.

When I was 11, she punched a cat in the face because it attacked me.

She's a fun hang.
