I'm so proud that my union, and so many politicians I respect such as @bradlander.bsky.social, @lindseyboylan.bsky.social, @yuhline.bsky.social were out there to speak truth to power, but this coalition should be 100x larger. Workers across all universities, hell all types of jobs, deserve better /2

Starting a union is impossibly hard. Keeping a union going, for decades, in lieu of all the hurdles, keeping a coalition together, standing up to those in charge who try to undermine you at every turn, is even harder.

That they can just "end it" on a whim is FUCKING ABSURD. 1/

Every day they make it look like Marie Antoinette had her finger directly on the pulse of the inner-machinations of the peasantry.

Will make the findings from your investigation into the MLC look positively pristine. Hope you’re ready.

“Even if it only cost $1 I don’t condone killing innocent people.”

Should not be seen as a radical opinion.

Your policy is only as good as your ability to enforce it, and Columbia has spent significantly more time enforcing their policy of muzzling its students than it has training its staff to stand up to ICE. None of this, however, is surprising.

Finally a reason to point and laugh even harder at dumbasses who claim they made it all the way through Ulysses.

There are sooooo many people better equipped to do this than the ex-marine who had a Totenkopf tattoo up until a couple months ago:

I already canceled it. I'm too jaded these days to not recognize that the enshittification will continue in even more creatively abhorrent ways once this fallout levels out.

Pity though for all those forced to deal with my renewed habit for run-on sentences that I don't check thoroughly enough.

IMO, if Kobe didn't want to be passed he should have scored more than 81 points. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Having a career field goal %age > 44.7% also might've helped too but who am I to say that the guy who takes every shot shouldn't take every shot?

A lot of missed analogues to cults too. Eventually, the most likely scenario is Jim Jones ranting and raving while hopped up on a cocktail of uppers and downers on the town's loudspeaker while you're being forced to drink the Flavor-aid and he cowardly shoots himself in the head at the end.

Rebecca Black had more personality in her voice when she sang "Friday," which was also never meant to be taken seriously.

And cancel it too if you pay for it. It’s not like they’re going to stop enshittifying it in new and creatively abhorrent ways once the fallout from this levels out.

Singapore, once regarded as nothing more than “Disneyland with the Death Penalty” only 30 years ago, is now considered a global culture must-see.

So I can see it. The blatancy of wealth over everything else drives me crazy, but the actual majority living there are probably creating great things.

He’s from the part of Connecticut I grew up in and early FG seasons included highly specific funny references to it, and it makes me feel better about the fact that the only other modern pop culture references to there are in Gilmore Girls which…Ugh.

Long way of saying I agree but I can’t hate him

I understood this reference and am now incredibly sad. Thank you, I guess.

Indeed, the worst part about knowing there is no god is knowing that some people really won’t get their comeuppance.

To the market point, I guess in a sick twisted way they kind of have to? Like what else will change the model more than the US President flipping the table over every 4 hours?

It’s all so stupid though, that we’re even here at all.

“It is my god-given right to be able to lord my mediocrity over someone who can’t say no to me” is the belief that all these pieces of shit hold to their very core.

I really, really wish I could not have to think about this fucking guy ever again until November 7, 2028 if and ONLY IF literally no one else wins the Democratic primary.

We can all avoid this. He sucks now, he sucked before, and would suck as president.

Vote in primaries people!

Willing to bet at least more than one person at Grammarly “raised thoughtful questions” about all this before it was implemented. Of course, those in charge with nothing but $ on their minds were definitely not listening.
