Mom: I hate that buses only run every 20 min. You miss one and end up waiting 40 min.

Me: So you like Mamdani's plan for free and fast bus service.

Mom: No. Then you will waste money with mostly empty buses running.

Me: But if they are free and faster won't more people chose to ride

Day THIRTY-NINE of our national ULP strike - and baristas are fired up, united, and taking action.

Our demands are clear: Starbucks needs to stop union busting and finalize a contract with the pay, hours, and protections we need to succeed. #NoContractNoCoffee

The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

JUST IN: This morning, hundreds of baristas have joined our national ULP strike.

☕ The solidarity is strong: For every one barista on strike, dozens more allies have shown up in force to back our cause.

Our strike continues to grow in strength and power! #NoContractNoCoffee
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

This is extraordinary, heartbreaking, and a red alert warning sign for our democracy.

These people are about to be federal judges, and they refuse to answer whether the U.S. Capitol was attacked on January 6.

They say they can't comment because it's "a political controversy".
Sen. BLUMENTHAL: Was the U.S. Capitol attacked on January 6, 2021?

Trump nominee: *dodges*

Trump nominee: *dodges*

Trump nominee: Well, individuals entered the Capitol.

"Starbucks, the company, is behaving irrationally.

As more and more stores go union the companies shortsightedness will become glaring and indefensible.

It will become clear that Starbucks management is creating structural fragility."

I interviewed Rob Reiner as one of the bonuses for the @criterion.bsky.social BluRay of SPINAL TAP. We talked for an hour about the movie and his career and then they shut off the cameras and we talked about movies for another hour. A delightful, unhurried genius.

While Starbucks workers are on ULP strike across the country, community allies are standing in solidarity in all kinds of ways! Besides vowing to not buy Starbucks ANYWHERE, members of DSA Labor are running strike kitchens to feed baristas while they hold the picket line.

@sbworkersunited.org began unionizing stores four years ago. They deserve their first union contract.
While Starbucks workers are on strike because they can't get a fair contract, the Bezos-owned Post is saying the CEO deserves the $96 million he got last year.
