The Super Bowl halftime show, with Bad Bunny showcasing Latin music before a global television audience expected to top 100 million, will illustrate the nation’s immigration divide whether or not the reggaeton star delivers an explicit political message.

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

One of the most important things we need to be educated on is how billionaires profit from prison slave labor.
So many corporations rely on it for their precious profits. The more people in prison (especially private prisons) the better for them.

Prisoners in the US are part of a hidden workforce linked to hundreds of popular food brands
The Associated Press found goods linked to prisoners wind up in the supply chains of everything from Frosted Flakes to Coca-Cola.

Starbucks baristas have been on strike for 3 months fighting for a contract and an end to union-busting.
The ask is simple: Delete the Starbucks app — NOW — and send a message that there's no "business as usual" without a fair contract.

Incredible. They destroyed a great newspaper because they hated the people who actually paid for it and read it so much that they'd rather scrap the paper if they couldn't get Tucker Carlson's audience bsky.app/profile/maxt...
Speaking to WaPo employees, editor Matt Murray says cuts are about “positioning ourselves to become more essential to people's lives, and what is becoming a more crowded, competitive and complicated media landscape, and after some years when, candidly, the Post has had struggles to do that."

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

The Athletic being part of the NYT and yet not part of the NYT subscription and taking over the sports section that subscribers used to enjoy is beyond annoying. I pay plenty for the Times, why can't I read Times journalism on sports? Then I have to go to Apple News to read it? What? Mess.
