Step 2: Navigate the new reality of being blacklisted by your union for challenging (for instance) a sellout contract that doesn't come close to providing a living wage.
If you have ideas for making your union better, the first step is to talk with your fellow members about what improvements can be made, and then approach union leaders together in a calm, strategic way, or try to get involved through official union structures 1/2
I remember 1- the human experience of people going "Huh, the decade+ model of Apatow comedies, where in lieu of an actual script, 50 improv takes for every scene and see what sticks, didn't work for Ghostbusters..."
2- Algorithms boosting this culture war BS to hell and back.
Remember when everyone lost their goddamn minds and had a bullshit culture war over a movie so superfluous and terrible, it probably helped kill the theatrical market for studio comedies?
Yeah, let’s move on from that.
The Portland Press Herald has identified the ICE agent who fatally shot Joan Sebastian Guerrero as David Brouillete.
Brouillette, 37, was identified by an ex-wife, who said he called her and asked her to lie on his behalf https://t.co/I462LiHuFj
“Email jobs are harder than blue collar jobs”
Every blue collar worker I know: “everyday I think about every life choice I made that landed me here. The heat, the pain, I would do anything to go back & land in an office”

One of the reasons I hate the whole “get involved in local politics!” Rant is you go to a hearing or whatever and the hearing is Should We Poison The River and Kill The River? And the whole town goes no!!! And then the mayor and city council immediately begin poisoning the river
@JacktheFate@BeezusQuimby3 Huh. Wtf. Haven't watched them in months but it's really weird that they saw through so much sheepdogging bullshit from the DSA, but now they're dick riding Zohran? While supporting a Larouche-ite in another borough?
My friend is a support worker who supports young disabled people doing internships as a first step into employment, and again and again she sees them flourish in these roles, with glowing feedback, only to then be immediately rejected when they apply to move to a paid position.
@barbarismcrit MN communities organized a wildcat general strike to #AbolishICE with immediate plans of escalations.
DNC led unions usurped them, reframed ICE as an institution to be reformed & ratfucked the radical energy.
"We are doing nothing" isn't accurate framing. https://t.co/09FzJEuS47
