My Fair Work Week law requires fast-food restaurants to give workers stable schedules & pathways to F/T jobs.

Starbucks has cheated 15,000 baristas—now they have to pay up.

Props @sbworkersunited.org & @hellodcwp.bsky.social for the biggest workers’ right enforcement action in NYC history.

In the “romantasy” genre, “copycats are commonplace,” the book blogger and author Jenny Trout said. “Authors are giving the people what they want, but it’s also like you’re reading the same book over and over again.” https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/_Ve27O
Did a Best-Selling Romantasy Novelist Steal Another Writer’s Story?
Tracy Wolff, the author of the “Crave” series, is being sued for copyright infringement. But romantasy’s reliance on standardized tropes makes proving plot theft tricky.
