After I tweeted in support of Frosk's statement against sexism in gaming I woke up to thousands of angry comments from alt-right accounts bc TheQuartering decided to make a video about it. I stand by it. Frosk stayed at the office later than most, was in most of our shows...

The recent layoffs & cost cutting measures of New CEO of @HBO David Zaslav are so emblematic of lazy ceo culture. Instead the mindset of "where can we create value and products that will attract new customers and revenue" it is instead "where can we cut expenses and personnel"

My coworker Ken Walker, a shift supervisor and 3 yr partner, was illegally fired from Starbucks this week. Ken is a vocal union supporter and has been a cornerstone to our partners organizing. 1/

Meme with Howard Schultz's head saying "I will never engage with a union." Underneath is a person with the Starbucks Workers United logo as the head saying, "That's the neat part, you don't have a choice."

I wish someone had sat me down when I was young and explained that there is no benefit to busting your ass and doing the most for the average employer, they will not promote you - they’ll just pile on and see how much they can get you to do

Happy Pride, all! As we go into this month, remember that union organizing and LGBT+ rights go hand-in-hand, both historically and in the pursuit of equal rights and protections under the law. We at ABetterABK stand with the queer community in pushing for a better tomorrow. 🧵

Now there's a feel-good story.
A Landlord ‘Underestimated’ His Tenants. Now They Could Own the Building. When a new landlord bought their building in the Bronx and threatened to raise rents and kick them out, tenants banded together. They never expected how far they might get: the chance to buy their apartments for $2,500 each. From the New York Times

We are pleased that after reviewing the evidence, the National Labor Relations Board rejected Raven Software management’s attempts to undermine our efforts to form a union. It’s now time for Raven management to stop trying to prevent us from exercising our rights.
