Just a heads up, the NLRB has taken an aggressive stance against companies that refuse to allow their employees to unionize.

So when a company has a positive response to unionization, just keep in mind that they don't really have any other option but to "grin and bear it" so to speak.

Biden isn't a law enforcement official. He's not a DA. He's not a police officer. He doesn't have the ability to have you arrested. I suspect Abbott knows this, but his constituents are too fucking stupid to understand the difference.

Having seen Kevin Hart live, I'm not surprised.

It was incredibly depressing that his openers (his "Solo cup boys") made homophobic jokes. One in particular was about how the comedian would be disappointed if his son was gay because he couldn't take him to the strip club with him.

Sorry that people aren't receptive to shitty, bigoted jokes any more Kevin. Maybe you and Dave Chappelle can get together and make jokes about trans/gay people to empty audiences.

Or in terms that you're more familiar with, "you 'gon learn today!'

As usual the Right wants states rights except not like that.

I bet that toasted his buns. His ego is at critical mass.

Conservative here

Don't know why anyone would ever admit to being a conservative.

Whoops, the mask slipped and we all saw the bot behind it.

People look at me strangely, but I don't go in anywhere without a mask, still. I don't eat in restaurants, I don't go to indoor family gatherings without a mask.

It's a big sacrifice but I'm not willing to live with long COVID and brain fog.

Correct. You only have to look at Roe's reversal to see that we're waging war against women in the US. The cruelty is the point.

This is the NY Post. It's a Murdoch-owned, rage-bait rag. It's going to be slanted, if not completely exaggerated.

The Babylon bee is right-wing trash.

Let's not sugar-coat this: do not tolerate fascists and bigots in your spaces. Period.
