More Perfect Union @moreperfectunion.bsky.social · 2d

California just banned employers from forcing workers to pay a debt, fee, or penalty to leave their job.

Bosses have increasingly been trapping workers with debts incurred in training and other exploitative fees.

Now that's illegal in the nation's biggest state.

So what exactly are autistic needs?

This is probably the most confusing aspect of autism.

I think the reason this confuses so many people (even autistic people) is that autistic needs are literally just human needs.

Being neurodivergent means you over-explain EVERYTHING in hopes of clear communication, then get anxious that your over-explanation was irritating and actually made things more confusing 🫤

Gorgeous article. Teen Vogue has the best most talented journalists.

"Slightly less covered is the wealth of Boricua history that makes his art as powerful as it is, including over 100 years of fraught Puerto Rico-U.S. relations that led to his arrival. This history is crucial for understanding the significance of where Bad Bunny stands now, & where he is going next"

Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Could Finally Spotlight Important Boricua History on the Mainland

Bad Bunny is perhaps the only pop star fully equipped to take on the current American sociopolitical ecosystem and the fact that a show must entertain.
