I have a coworker who, every time he is screen sharing, he has the Nasdaq composite, HIMS (Hims and Hers), and RBLX (Roblox) stock ticker tabs open. An older zoomer redditor, sorta church youth group coded. I assume this is some memestock thing

thank you bad bunny for highlighting the importance of critical power distribution infrastructure bsky.app/profile/cost...
It’s the weekend everyone, so you know what that means. Time to drink two polar seltzers and do a thread on the power transformer shortage. Without transformers, we don’t get a clean energy transition. And as energysky knows, there’s been a shortage due to covid, supply chain, & labor constraints 🔌🔋

this is a function of the current state of the media economy. there are fewer projects being developed, which means fewer jobs available. meanwhile, super bowl commercials have become tentpole productions with movie-sized budgets and are able to pay talent in a way that the studios aren't
Used to be a time when movie stars would go overseas to do commercials because it was beneath them to do ads.
Now we have A list actors doing full on ad campaigns for tech bro companies.

i worry that a 5-year stretch of nothing but ads for NFTs, bitcoin, and AI is a long enough gap that this nation's once-great advertising industry will forget how to sell a product people actually want

If the prosecutorial arm of ICE withers away to nothing and it’s just the enforcement goons left do you think the rocks level stupid federal judges we got will finally make an order to stop this shit then?
The top lawyer for Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Minnesota has left the agency, the same week an ICE attorney was removed after telling a district judge that “this job sucks” and that the Trump administration is “overwhelmed” with immigration cases.

This is an important story by @genoways.bsky.social -- Haitian workers vote 99% "YES" to strike at a meatpacking plant at the same time the end of TPS and their possible deportation hangs over their heads. Intersection of union power and the anti-immigrant crusade is laid bare right here.
A JBS plant’s largely immigrant workforce is refusing to back down after they accuse their employer of poor working conditions.

If you're a business owner who fires someone you have assigned to an overseas job and you don't buy them a plane ticket home you should actually go to prison
Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries.
One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home.

Got another personal ask that I'm trying to find leads on quickly - a fellow Fil-Am member of the community (& friend) is looking for a new housing situation with private landlords. Just them & their partner, no pets, need to be out by May 1st (and they'll be recovering from major surgery). DM me!
