On Monday, The Times Tech Guild, which represents more than 600 engineers, data managers, designers, software developers and tech personnel at the paper, announced they had gone on strike after failing to reach a new contract with the New York Times Co. after “multiple rounds of intense bargaining.” The union, affiliated with the NewsGuild of New York, accused the company of unfair labor practices. A company spokesperson said the New York Times Co. was “continuing to work with the Tech Guild to reach a fair contract that takes into account that they are already among the highest-paid individual contributors in the company and journalism is our top priority.”

The union called out the Needle in its post on X Monday announcing the strike — showing the needle all the way to right predicting a “100% chance of a work stoppage”

Is this needle a scab needle?

Trump somehow is just given the election because of the senate parliamentarian and the dems just go with it and people should have voted harder lathe-of-heaven

Funnily enough Portland of all places does not fluorinate their water partly due to pressure from craft brewing and artisanal coffee roasters.

My money is on Hasan + co getting permabanned by the end of the year. It seems like the liberal-nazi Reddit troll farms will actually have the power to bully people off of Twitch as long as advertisers aren't willing to advertise on media that opposes the state of Israel. Some of them will probably do fine on platforms like YouTube, but the Palestine version of the red scare, is alive and well.

Sidebar there definitely needs to be a term coined for the anti-Palestinian witch hunts that have been going on, I've seen "the new McCarthyism", but that doesn't really do it justice, and the green scare is already taken describing the US crackdown on environmental protestors in the 2000s. Maybe the "Palestine Panic", that's the best I've got.

This guy represents one of the poorest districts in the country and spends 90% of his waking hours tweeting about "antisemetic" college students and what not, almost a parody of what people think of as a corrupt US politician.
