@ErinZapcic @labornotes Meeeee!

[Glendale Tenants @GlendaleTenants]

A few months ago, we got put in contact with a building of tenants who were all being threatened with renovictions by their landlord. Through research with the tenants, we discovered that their new landlord is the same man as the owner of Star Garden - Stepan Kazaryan.

Love to see my union standing with my other union 🥲 I’m such a sap for solidarity. I ♥️ you WGA you’re the realest

[Writers Guild of America West @WGAWest]

The @ActorsEquity has filed multiple Unfair Labor Practice charges with the BLRB on behalf of @EquityStripNoHo. Join your fellow WGAW members and union strippers TODAY 12/7 to picket for a safe and reasonable workplace. #1u

I’ve seen a lot of tweets about post Hollywood strike existential dread and grieving the loss of our picket line communities. Boy, do I have the solution for you!!! Bring your favorite strike buddy to the stripper picket line this Thursday 🤗 We could really use the support.

[Nicole Feste @nicolefeste]

Look, you have Thursday night plans now!!! Please join the union strippers on our picket line in front of Star Garden Topless Bar in North Hollywood on 12/7 at 8pm. Sex workers deserve to ask for basic safety and respect in their workplaces without facing retaliation.

Poster by ME, club promoter extraordinaire. If you’ve ever wanted to support union strippers while they dance to medieval lute music, boy do I have the destination for you!!! I promise it will be as weird as you're imagining, and hotter than you're expecting

[Nicole Feste @nicolefeste]

But actually we have the bonnets, you’re not gonna want to miss this incredibly niche strip club experience!!! Management continues to try to starve us out of our jobs with their retaliatory policies, but with your support we can live to fight another day <3

[Nicole Feste @nicolefeste]

When your strip club manager acts like a commander from a puritanical dystopia, you fulfill your end of his power trip fantasy and become a Handmaid!!! This Friday all of the union strippers at Star Garden will be referred to as Ofmike <3 Under His eye, may the NLRB open [a case]

[Nicole Feste @nicolefeste]

I am once again asking you to stand in solidarity with union strippers by witnessing our boobs 🤗 I cannot think of a more enjoyable labor action! Your support patronizing the club keeps us afloat while we continue to fight the union-busting that's designed to depress our wages.

When I was 11 I used to spend my free time preaching the word of Jesus in the village square on RuneScape, and now I tell men at strip clubs under the banner of my demonic stage name that they should consider rereading the Bible bc they missed out on some sick necromancy subplots

[Los Angeles Times @latimes]

These L.A. strippers won a union. But the dance isn't over https://t.co/J241uLekCO

Saying now that if this happens, the Equity Strippers have your back! My most memorable moment on our picket line was when a porn performer ditched his friends because he refused to go inside the club. He said he couldn't do that to his fellow SWers. We're so powerful together!

[Maya Kendrick @mayakendrickxo]

the majority of porn performers are down to strike but that will not be possible unless we set up a strike fund that affluent performers and directors donate to heavily and often. we need support from the richest people in our community to make it possible.

@witchywom444n @JorgeCoolReyes I'm in the WGA and they're asking for people who aren't yet, but ily! <3

[Nicole Feste @nicolefeste]

Happy to answer any questions, and I hope to respectfully show you my boobs in the name of solidarity very soon 🤗

[Nicole Feste @nicolefeste]

Why me asking you to patronize a union strip club is a legitimate labor action that NEEDS more support from our union comrades!!! A thread:

[Nicole Feste @nicolefeste]

We are negotiating what would be the first union strip club contract in 26 years. This contract has the power to revolutionize the industry. Your support in the club not only gives us fuel to keep going, but also shows the bosses the volume of people who want to see us succeed.
