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.

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

Hey gamers, wanna help me put together one of my next lectures (and maybe some other content down the line 👀)?
I'm looking for some of YOUR favorite examples of video game animation. Doesn't matter what it is or what genre, all I ask is nothing that's a result of glitches or bugs.

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.

Hey all. In a rough spot that may potentially get rougher. If you want to help, here’s a way to do it.
TLDR: My cat is on track to have his second UTI of 2025. I do not have the savings to not go into debt. Any and all of this will either cover vet bills, or be donated to (1/2)

GDQ's upcoming event, Games Done Queer, has already become a fierce rallying cry of support for LGBT rights in the US: 'We had 450 hours of content submitted for the 36-hour show'
"We're here, we're bigger than you think we are, and we can band together when it's important."
