In the historically anti-union South, the UAW just secured a landmark contract with Volkswagen.
The workers won major wage increases, job security against outsourcing, and higher-quality healthcare.
Congratulations to these workers, and remember: there is always hope in labor.

Starbucks Workers United baristas are escalating their fight for a fair contract.
I urge you to keep boycotting Starbucks — and delete its app from your phone.
Workers are fed up with low pay, chaotic scheduling, understaffing, and illegal union busting.

As I talked about this morning, the FDA has finally gone the way of the EPA and FEC. The case that basically sealed the deal was vaping Dragon vs The FDA tobacco regulators. 🧵🧵🧵
Good morning ppl! As of Monday, the @hhsofficial.bsky.social has officially become a paper tiger. The combined court cases over the last month have basically neutered the FDAs ability to enforce fines.

It's amazing that, since we recorded this series, we have new examples of men stepping into community care, especially in Minnesota. Despite the seemingly iron grip of patriarchy, masc people are pulling away from domination and into love. We see you. Keep going. 🫂

It’s funny how their history is enslaving us and exploiting our labor and bodies. They are trying to go back to 1850

And to them that’s the unthinkably evil.

A few years ago, the IRS got additional funding. What happened? More audits of wealthy tax cheats and better customer service for everyone else.
Fast forward to now and the IRS is so understaffed and underfunded that it’s using HR employees to process tax returns.
Trump delivers for the oligarchs.

Humans are hard-wired to 'hear' negative comments at a higher level of importance than positive comments. This is a defensive mechanism coded in your DNA. Negative equals danger. Positive may be lies. This means negative words are far more powerful than positive ones.
