So tired of the #NFL putting games on every damn stream under the sun so we have to subscribe to EVERYTHING. If anyone feels like letting me guest in their ESPN account for #MondayNightFootball, my DMs are open!

✅ Download docs (eOPF etc) quickly because you will likely lose network access
✅ Make sure you have a non-gov email way to access mypay & other benefits
✅ Get Doctor’s appointments and prescriptions filled for a few months if needed

1/2 A reminder to anyone who was RIFed.

💯 you do NOT deserve this.

Quick tips if you do get a RIF notice:
❌ Do not send a read receipt
❌ Do not respond right away - the union will probably provide language for response
✅ Forward notice to your personal email

Successful general strikes need to start with something that hits people hard and broadly. Two sectors have this power: waste management and transportation.

Everybody should call in sick. Shut the air down. Hell, shut the met offices down.

Folks -- this is for our healthcare. It's all we got. Short term pains lead to long term gains.

The FAA is delaying flights at Newark and Denver airports because they haven’t got enough air traffic control. Burbank has zero ATC from 4.30-10pm.

Lots of controllers who aren’t being paid during the government shutdown are calling in sick.

I literally had to do a check to see what kind of employee would be this much of a shit troll on a platform built almost exclusively to escape tech bro shit trolls...and it's the CEO of Bluesky. 😐 I'm not even invested in the fight people are having with her, but I find this behavior shameful.

@jay.bsky.team you've got an awful lot of posts about internet etiquette, so you'll probably be shocked to hear that rich CEOs shit posting at their patrons with patronizing, sarcastic language is pretty poor form.

Bigg @bpbigg.bsky.social · 11d

Just a few more posts should do it. Just post a few more times & everyone will realize you were right & they were stupid to complain. A few more posts will make us all see that your unworkable codebase is the golden-egg-laying goose you need it to be & that your moderation issues are irrelevant

FWIW, these are purple (not pink) and yes, cauliflower naturally come in colors besides homogeneous white!

It's actually "amethyst purple", which, along with orange, is a relatively common cauliflower color!
