10,000 city workers in Philadelphia with AFSCME District Council 33 are now on strike.

The union was unable to reach a deal with the city on a new contract by last night's deadline.

Workers are demanding better wages and job security and more substantial health benefits for all members.

Thousands of Philadelphia city workers are officially on strike More than 9,000 city employees are on strike after contract talks fell apart between AFSCME District Council 33 and Mayor Parker’s administration, the first major city worker strike since 1986.

Philly’s AFSCME DC 33 is officially ON STRIKE!

Over 9,000 blue collar city workers who run our streets, libraries, sanitation, and more have refused the city’s lowball offers. They make an average of $46K while our mayor enriches herself, her cronies, and the cops www.inquirer.com/politics/phi...

Demonstrators are trying to make sure ICE agents can’t sleep "Time to pull out the trumpet."

Tambourines. Trumpets. "Blasting horns so the little fuckers had a terrible sleep.”

Demonstrators outside LA-area hotels—where ICE agents are believed to be sleeping—are employing creative methods to keep those agents awake.

With the tragic assassination of a Minnesota Democratic leader, I’m going to underline this point again.

Philly showin' up today

Schwarzenegger winning seemed like the most embarrassing thing that would ever happen in politics at the time and now he’s to the left of every elected Republican and a few Democrats and just makes videos going “young men, my fadda was a Nazi and he was a contemptible loosah”

why would companies move to the US when Everyone is going to tariff us back. we're just going to be cut off.

after John Oliver did a piece on Dr. Oz I honestly thought I'd never have to hear about him again

@techconnectify.bsky.social If my thermostat to 79° (the top dial), why does it never get to that temperature? I'll have it set like that for days and it'll never reach the temp. It's at 70° right now (bottom dial). It KNOWS it's not the right temperature???

It's a constitutional crisis. The military is going to decide how far this can go. If you have a service member in your life, please talk to them.

We need to find a way to get the military on the people's side. They're gonna decide what gets enforced, in the end.
