Disappointed to see this. 160 union workers are fighting for a fair contract at Individualized Shirts, a US factory that makes high-end men's button-ups. The managers there have rejected the union's request for fair wages and health insurance. The union is asking for support 🧵
I think it's really telling that there's never been a hot person who's into AI
can't believe this ancient mesopotamia shoe wearing ass said people need to dress up at the airport
I have read the poem that you put behind a paywall and which someone should have told me to save for after breakfast I will not forgive you you’re all atrocious so dumb and so gross
