After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's.
Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1.
Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.

I overprepared for trick-or-treaters. And we didn't even get as many as last year. Now I've got leftover candy.
Bummer.
The teens loved the ramen, and at least the chocolate all went.

HHS has eliminated EVERY SINGLE SAFEGUARD FOR DATA PROTECTION AT CDC. Giving data to CDC is no longer safe and puts your residents at risk.
Unless and until all CDC’s data protections are restored you should consider CDC a bad actor.

Years ago, they confessed to being nationalists. Not long after, they embraced being white supremacists. Recently, they’ve revealed themselves as unabashed socialists. What do we call white supremacist national socialists? Nazis. They’re called Nazis. It stings them bc they check all the boxes.

I've been making a genuine effort to use the term "fanworks" instead of "content"
I feel like it's important, with the rise of fandom fracturing into a "consumer demands" type of vibe instead of the old hobby enjoying and friendship vibe I am more used to

Look at this graph.
The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.
This is why we must build back union power.

While you are looking at Trump, the oligarchs are seeding themselves deeper into the fabric of society, your government, and your resources. Your media is captured, your institutions are captured, your politicians are captured, and your algorithms are captured. A full system reboot is needed. #3E
