This is kinda complicated. UAW's president is right-wing, OPEIU at a national level is kinda bleeding and the more radical fighting union groups like CWA and IWW are more-or-less laughed off for fighting
Crazy that labor didn't put up a fight to stop these Senators from capitulating, the main federal union capitulated two weeks ago and other unions issued press releases that everyone ignored
Part of the reason Democrats don't fight is that most union leaders don't fight either

It really bothers me that even though people keep dying, AI companies will not stop offering AI therapy or “friends”. You simply do not have to have your office product have mental counseling and emotional support as a function. When I buy a stapler I don’t expect it to love me.

People are so busy yelling at voters that "elections have consequences," they never yell "politics have consequences" at their elected officials.
look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

How did New Yorkers elect a democratic socialist as their mayor? We have a reading list for that.
Want to understand the Zohran phenomenon? Here’s a mini reading list.
Have you thanked a bodega cat today? Remember, they won’t be getting raises under the new administration. For 51% of New York City bipeds, however, it’s a pretty great week. Zohran Mamd…

When you think about it. . .
Loyalist Dem voters never demand anything from the Democrats, and so. . . the Democrats never demand anything to protect the livelihood of their voters.
Another death cult.

Major concession from Democrats here is enhanced ACA funds aren’t extended. Preserving them was Dems’ central demand in this fight. They secured a promise of a vote (which Thune has been offering for weeks), but that could still fail. Even if it passes, Johnson has made no promise of a House vote.
Tentative Senate deal to end shutdown, multiple sources tell me & @frankthorp.bsky.social:
—CR through Jan 30
—Approps minibus
—Fully funds SNAP
—Reverses Trump’s shutdown RIFs
—Promise of Senate vote on ACA subsidies by Dec second week (details/outcome uncertain)
—Led by King/Shaheen/Hassan

And the main way you can do this is to read history. Reading history teaches you to see patterns. After that, you start asking who and why and THAT'S when you get angry

I’ve been developing something called the Human-Made License, a Creative Commons–style way to certify that creative work was made without genAI.
I’m looking for feedback from artists, designers, and writers before the public launch. DM me if you’d like to take a look at the first draft.

It is really hard to have hundreds of developers constantly asking you to solve more while *their* most influential voices or commercial actors are so deeply invested in tearing down the value of what you do

Being rich is equivalent to being a celebrity. So as long as we keep celebrity worship central to our "entertainment" and "comfort", we won't see the end of them shaping public opinion or directives; despite our efforts.
