The Spy Museum used to be in this building, and put up James Bond villain displays in windows before they moved. Nobody replaced them. So every Christmas, Xenia Onatopp and Largo look down menacingly on shoppers.

The Starbucks strike is open-ended and workers are prepared to stay on strike for a while. They're asking consumers not to buy Starbucks while they're striking so don't cross the picket line! bsky.app/profile/sbwo...
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

The wonderful writers @sn-media-guild.bsky.social have been waiting on a fair contract almost long enough to gestate a baby elephant (620 days).
They have neither a contract NOR a baby elephant.
All they want is a contract, to be paid for their amazing expertise.

We have fully remote workers who are essential to our publications. They get freedom to work wherever they can do their best work. Those of us in the DMV have to go sit in an office building 2 days a week where it is very difficult to work. Why?
Proud of my colleagues!!! These are some of the best int he business, and they deserve to be paid for their work, and to be allowed to work where they NEED to.
Workers of the Science News Media Guild will conduct a 24-hour #strike on Wednesday, 11/5. This comes after our members voted to reject the Society’s latest contract proposal. Our members previously voted by 92% to authorize a strike against the @society4science.bsky.social, if necessary.
