one reason unions are so cool is you can fight back against lousy managers that corporate won't do anything about 👍

i'm holding your hands, gently

april 7 is the start of national library week. get your library card. write your library board. check out 10 books. use your library. do it.

The end of an era. Doing NaNo 20 years ago is how I met most of the friends I have today. It's too bad it turned into what it did the past couple years.

the sickos man is very cold. let him inside

sounds like the perfect time for everyone to start wearing masks again

new sickos meme just dropped

I dropped $60 on the Pens-Wild game, $120 on the Avs-Wild game, and I'm considering spending $150 a Rangers ticket when I'm on my work trip.

Meanwhile I just got a Chicago NHL ticket for $33. What a joke of a team 🥴

"well as long as it's age appropriate" no fuck you guys actually, i read adult books when i was 12 and now i'm weird as hell, as i SHOULD be

Text says "HOUR CUTS HURT. It's time to demand guaranteed hours & proper staffing for Starbucks baristas! bit.ly/EndHourCuts" Images of a clock, a dollar bill being cut, a Starbucks staffing schedule with low hours, drive-thru times, a long drink order, and an eye tearing up decorate the middle of the image.

Baristas frequently work shifts without enough labor to keep up with customers, & without consistent hours + scheduling, we often cannot afford rent or groceries.

We're calling on ALL Starbucks partners to sign our petition demanding Starbucks listen!

Great to see the #MEAction protest! ❤️ #LongCOVIDAwarenessDay

The right dominates the online media ecosystem, seeping into sports, comedy, and other supposedly nonpolitical spaces As Americans increasingly get their news from online shows and streamers, the influence of this media ecosystem becomes more prominent — and Media Matters has found that the most popular of this conte...

This is a good action item because it:
1. Seeks info
2. Keeps DOGE busy if it complies
3. Is a basis for legal action if it doesn’t

my mama cat Mona is very quiet and skittish (even with me) and she hid behind the dishwasher for the sitter while I was gone, but she's been chatty and clingy since I got home 🥺

Oh god, I just found this. I asked my kids to name NHL teams based on logos, like two years ago. They knew almost nothing.

Gabe HAS TO get back in the lineup this season now

It's the entire email list for all DOGE employees. Have fun!

I've been reading Harlequins for 25 years - I'm a trope junkie. The problem with genre publishing right now (IMHO) is authors and publishers thinking trope is all they need - never mind the pesky details like character development, compelling conflict and an actual plot.

you ever think about how the starbucks CEO made $800k a day last year and commutes to work on a private jet, but said it was a necessity to lay off 1000+ corporate workers and continue understaffing stores?

every time I'm in a meeting at work

a new realization I’ve had about the incredible people who organized resistance against the nazis is how many of them probably hated each other

people in the replies to this are getting into arguments so heated that they're blocking each other. some say we need sports to distract people like these, but sports are for intellectuals. maybe we could reboot the west wing for them or something

If you’re at home today, not spending money, and feeling bored, you might be wondering, “What could I do?” Well, task one: you can make random reports on this website: enddei.ed.gov
