There is going to be a general strike on January 23. Make sure you don't cross the picket line.
every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO

this is the first time it’s been called for since the 1940s

One of those days in Seattle where you should probably cancel your afternoon meetings and take an extended lunch because it might be a while before we have sunshine and nearly 60 degree temperatures again.

(by the way, the record high for the date is 58)

I’m glad that I grew up in a house built in 1980.
Another datapoint in the “young men haven’t turned conservative the media just thinks a 55 year old guy listening to Rogan is young for unclear reasons”
Gen X is at +5 support for ICE while millennials are at -25.

Is this at all related to the United States banning lead paint in houses in 1978?

For obvious reasons the outrage isn't focused on the cost, but as social programs are slashed in every category, it's still infuriating to see the money is no object philosophy when it comes to terrorizing the country.

Like this is amazing for unhoused people, a dearth of public bathrooms is totally about creating a hostile world for them, but also speaking as someone who is on Metformin and has a sibling with ulcerative colitis just being able to easily find somewhere to POOP in a sudden time of need is so great
Mayor Zohran Mamdani and City Council Speaker Julie Menin on Saturday announced an initiative to install more public bathrooms across the city.

Should they have cared about all this before now? Yes.

Did you reach the right position before them? Sure, here's a gold star.

Do we need their numbers to make this work? Yes. Please stop acting like the hipster who knew about this band before anyone else. We actually do need the normies.

This is effectively a large tax on any store that accepts EBT cards and will make many households’ SNAP benefits unusable.
RFK Jr: "One of the things we're doing is Brooke Rollins is requiring that any facility, and store that accepts food stamps will have to double the amount of whole food that is now available to recipients. So that will change the marketplace around the country."
