As of this morning 4,500 Starbucks workers are on strike. Don’t cross their picket line.
No Starbucks. NO Starbucks gift cards!

JUST IN: This morning, hundreds of baristas have joined our national ULP strike.
☕ The solidarity is strong: For every one barista on strike, dozens more allies have shown up in force to back our cause.
Our strike continues to grow in strength and power! #NoContractNoCoffee

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

If I were running for president I'd mention in every speech and debate that I intend to seize every asset owned by the Trump family and use it on restarting USAID and immigrant/asylum-seeker protection and naturalization programs, just to see if I can make that fucker so mad his head pops.

Why do so many people in office jobs always say "I'm on annual leave next week"? Just say leave. The fact that your allowance of leave in calculated annually is totally irrelevant.
It's like referring to my medications as "monthly medication" because that's how often I get it from the pharmacist.

Nonetheless I've always thought we should have an Erasmus-like scheme for people who weren't in education. Just take a checkout worker at Aldi in Plymouth and let them be a checkout worker at Aldi in Bruges for a year or something. Never does harm to let people see a bit of the world.
Important point: university isn't just for posh kids; Erasmus+ gives non-posh kids same chance as posh kids to study abroad, which they otherwise wdn't have; & covers vocational & other non-university training & education exchanges. And if more students come to the UK, that increases UK soft power.
I wish the Brexit dinosaurs would stop this "Erasmus is for posh kids" crap. Half the young population goes to university, these days, in UK and most of EU. And most of the half that doesn't is also eligible for Erasmus+, which covers schools, further education, adult learners and in-work training.

"From the river to the sea"
"Israel has a right to defend itself"
Anyone who spouts the line about "ooh well you might not mean it in a racist way but if people say it scares them you shouldn't say it" about one of these phrases and not the other is not worth taking seriously.

What I would like for 2026, amongst other things, is for people to stop saying “any other minority” when we’re all being oppressed. It ignores the struggles of every other group and proves you aren’t standing in solidarity with others. Or you’d notice that it isn’t just your minority. It’s ugly

I don’t use these phrases myself, as you’ll have noticed. But I am here to tell you that if we could impose an effective blanket ban on use of any particular phrases and symbols, then this bullshit would instantly shift to different phrases and symbols at exactly the same intensity.

I still can't get over them using "AI" for placeholder *text*. They're literally thinking of words, and instead of using those words as their placeholder, they're plugging them into the bullshit machine to get different words. It's like unplugging your space heater and setting it on fire for warmth.

Niece got put on blockers cos she hit puberty at 10, my son was in line to get them at 11 but Dr said kids are hitting puberty younger nowadays. Said early in her career my kid would have been on them no question but come back if we wanted them
Literally that simple for cis kids to delay puberty

Sorry to always repeat this, but it’s important: my trans kid saw multiple specialists +had therapy for over a year before receiving any gender-affirming care. My short cis child had hormones/puberty blockers aggressively pushed on him by drs starting at age 5 bc they were concerned about his height
cis people are NOT FUCKING REAL. they don't exist

Context for this: the police acknowledge that they have been told this is not a crime. Barring legislation to make it a crime in the meantime: how happy are we with legislators saying they welcome police arresting people that they know have not committed a criminal offence?
