On April 25, Local 1123 members ratified a new three-year agreement with their employer, National Consolidation Services (NCS).

Members maintained the right to strike midcontract and secured raises that have kept pace with inflation over the past ten years.

where are all the cis feminists who, a week ago, were raising hell because this happened to a cis woman?? is this not also the “logical endpoint of transphobia” or do we not care so much when it’s an actual trans woman?
1. A transgender woman let legislators know she intended to use the bathroom in the Florida Capitol.

A contingent of officers waited for her, and stood outside the door.

When she stepped in, she was arrested and sent to a men's jail.

The latest from S. Baum.

coincidentally this feature ran the same day everyone's talking about Studio Ghibli AI slop. It's not about that but I think the story illustrates the type of art and artists we'd miss out on if all we were left with was that garbage
It lives!

I spoke with David Encinas — one of the few Western animators to ever work for Studio Ghibli with the likes of Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata — and got an inside look at what it was like to work on PRINCESS MONONOKE. Some of my favorite bits... 1/ www.vulture.com/article/what...
What Working on Princess Mononoke at Studio Ghibli Taught Me
In the middle of one of their most crunched productions, Studio Ghibli’s masters showed a young French animator the ropes.

Obama was so impressed with Homan he honored him with a Presidential Rank Award in 2015 — the highest award for civil service.

Never forget Obama was the "deporter-in-chief" and that Dems paved the way for the mass deportations that Trump is signing off on today.

Trump's "border czar" Tom Homan didnt come out of nowhere. It was Obama who tapped him to head ICE's deportation branch. Under Obama Homan crafted his family separation policy. It was rejected, but the compromise? Expand immigrant detention, build new facilities to hold families indefinitely.
