It's Bi Visibility Day, so good excuse as any to post this wonderful art I got from @sleepingwoolf.bsky.social a while back
It's Pride Month (happy Pride!) so it's time to post this again

Idk that it bodes well that a corporation can say "we fired these people for [describes union organizing activity]" and a judge will find that this doesn't seem to mean that they were fired for union organizing activity
BREAKING: A UK judge has *denied* interim pay to the 31 employees fired by Rockstar Games last year, saying she "was unable to conclude that it appears likely that the tribunal will find that the principal reason for the claimants’ dismissal" was union organizing www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
Fired Rockstar Employees Denied Pay by UK Judge
The 31 staffers argued they were dismissed for unionizing. Rockstar said they were fired for leaking information in an online chat group.

my apartments decided to turn off electronic payments for the foreseeable future, which means i can’t use the Flex payment service i’ve been relying on to pay my rent in halves. with the second half of jan’s rent due this month, i cannot afford to pay next months in full. anything helps, tysm ;-; 💚

36 people have died at ICE's hands in the past year
may of these deaths did not happen on camera, but it does not make them any less horrifying and unacceptable
this is a list of their names, where they lived before being abducted, and a link to crowdfunding if i can find it

It takes an enormous amount of courage to stand there, keep filming, and scream "What the fuck, you asshole" at someone wearing a badge who just shot and killed one of your neighbors in cold blood.
I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK
I’m eating lunch, I’m having a panic attack, I’m charging my phone, and then I’m going back out to try and keep my neighborhood safe.
