A dear friend is Sbux union leader through Workers United and she clued me into 3 things.
Starbucks has not signed a contract with the workers for 4 years.
Starbucks has more union violations than any other company in the US.
Shareholders are demanding they settle.
Keep boycotting.

The death toll from the attack on Venezuela is now at 80, per Venezuelan officials. That includes civilians. Every article about the attack, or how the US somehow claims it will run the country, should mention the fact that, you know, people died, including civilians. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Stranger Things' final season releasing in chunks with the finale being the last one and also being offered theatrically is very funny to me. Netflix bumbles into figuring out that spreading a show out keeps the conversation alive and that you can get money from people going theaters

The judge also ordered that teachers have a right to misgender trans youth even when the parents know of and are supportive of their trans child. Just in case you thought this was actually about parental rights.
24 Dec 2025 @rikiwilchins.bsky.social -- Judge overturns CA school policy on outing trans kids, rules parents have right to know & teachers a right to tell them but no mention of child's rights. Case likely bound for Supremes. Weirdly CA law allows abortion w/o parental notification.
Federal judge rules California teachers are allowed to ‘out’ transgender students to parents
The ruling applies to all public schools in California and is a victory for two teachers who claimed that district policies violated their constitutional free speech and religious rights.

When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.

but to be clear - this is a problem that wasn’t restricted to just G4TV, it was all over the games press those years.
it’s easier to find the video clips, but it was all over written coverage, too.

G4 really loved the racist and xenophobic “wacky and perverted japan” perspective - they couldn’t talk enough trash about them, and made JRPG into a dirty word.

The fact of the matter is that bad actors have exploited cis people's disgust and reticence when it comes to viewing trans existence as just as worth of dignity, respect, and support. So even when we're trying to talk about a blatant attack on our rights, people turn up with conspiracy theories.

Spell check existed long before genAI and in its most basic function is not genAI. Spell check is code. It's a function. It checks against a database of available words. Spell check in certain programs, however, may have been made worse by running it through genAI.

Here's an example of how useless and frustrating internet laws to "protect kids" are in practice: When I'm in Ohio, where I am during the holidays, I can't use my Bluesky DMs—unless I hand over my ID to a company owned by Epic Games. Why? To protect kids, of course!
