Sadly, my union has folded and is nowhere to be found...
Striking is a felony for federal workers, outlawed in 1947 and made punishable by fines, jail time, and a lifetime ban from government work.

Lately, though, federal unions have been showing they're still kicking.
Trump is hellbent on crushing federal unions, but they’re still kicking
“People think that since we don't have the right to strike, we're like a paper tiger.”

Oh frickin finally some good news from my home state!
A big win for Arkansas voters: a federal court has blocked laws that would’ve effectively shut down citizen-led ballot initiatives — the same process Arkansans have long used to raise wages, expand healthcare and enact reforms lawmakers ignored.

As SNAP terminates, thrusting 42 million into starvation's abyss amid Trump's fascist onslaught, those 7 million No Kings demonstrators ought to forge bonds with the forsaken destitute, shattering elitist isolation. #Resist

So this cute, lil fkr found out around 0430, this AM, that I know some kung fu! He either tried to head butt my nose while I was sleeping or he reached out and pawed my right nostril, because I woke up swinging! Luckily, I just pushed him away with blocking moves 🤷‍♀️

I swear @actblueorg.bsky.social can FK right off with their SPAM bs! There were 128 msgs in my spam folder and 125 were BS fundraisers, from Dem politicians.

I'd personally love to donate to @jonesforar.bsky.social even though I've technically left the state, but can't

What a sick, demented f**k!
The term “comfort women” was a euphemism for South Korean women forced into military sex slavery during WWII. Use of the phrase has been criticized for minimizing the harm and gravity of Japan’s actions.

But given Trump's history, it’s no surprise he doesn’t understand. trib.al/Ly6uK0W

Just saw that somehow, some way Amazon Web Services got the contract for e-learning inside the fed. The whole idea behind fed gov spending on goods and services, is to promote and support small businesses. Not prop up campaign donors.
