Since I keep seeing people talking about American Horror Story and Kim Kardashian, I'd like to stop and remind everyone that Kim Kardashian is a SCAB and so is everyone who worked on AHS after the Strike was called. Show Runner Ryan Murphy is a SCAB. Everyone who filmed even a minute after the Strike was called is a SCAB.
Still confused about what a Scab is?

FUCK SCABS.

I was in a conversation with someone the other day about this topic and I am now curious -- I know Scabby the Rat originated in Chicago and has a presence in other major American cities but I'm not sure how many people are actually super familiar with him, so: without doing any research...
Once you've voted (and reblogged because you all know how this works) please enjoy this photo gallery of Scabby Across America.

So.... why'd Peri get assigned Dev as his first godchild?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jorgen���s usually not the one in charge of assigning godchildren. There’s an entire department that weighs and classifies potentail Godkids to the right Fairy. Although it’s on strike at the moment.
So Jorgen has to do it by hand, until the union negotiations are resolved. Turns out trying to use paperclips is very hard. Itty bitty paperclips. Big muscular biceps. Not a good combo.

Regarding the canada post strike:
PEOPLE NEED TO STAND WITH CUPW
Read their demands, its far from outrageous or impossible like canada post and so many others are making them out to be. Like asking that weekends be staffed with full time staff and not part timers! Like asking to have lunch provided for rural workers!
Also, to anyone buying into the bs about canada post not being able to pay postal workers more: look up how much the exects make and use any and all critical thinking you got.
- signed a canadian who is livid at how the media has been portraying the strike
thank you so much! it pisses me off to see how it's been portrayed, too. i'm not canadian, but my best friend is and i'm pissed that people don't care more. postal workers keep everything running, from every last government establishment to the smallest of businesses... respect their demands for better treatment in the workplace. these people go through absolutely brutal working conditions in order to get people their mail.
here is some information on how you can support and educate yourself on the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW), picket line locations, as well as resources for Canada Post workers who are currently dealing with poor workplace situations and rights:

I finished watching Dungeon Meshi today. Chilchuck reminds me of my old union advisor. I'm not sure if there's a correlation.

Perhaps this is too cynical but whenever someone gets obsessive over whether the fiction and games they enjoy precisely match their politics I begin to doubt that they live out those same values in the real world to the best of their reasonable ability.

both starbucks and amazon workers are on strike y’all
please support workers. 41% of amazon workers have been injured on the job because Amazon puts profit over people’s safety.

In case you haven't heard, the NYT Tech Guild is on strike and trying to get a fair contract.
They are asking us to support their picket line by NOT using the NYT Games or Cooking Apps.
More information on how to support the strike below.

FOLLOW/SHARE
If you would like to follow their strike efforts you can find updates on Instagram or TikTok
DON'T CROSS PICKET LINES
They have been kind enough to create a Strike Friendly version of some of the NYT Games that we are allowed to play. They've even included some recipes for NYT Cooking users! You can enjoy them here!
DONATE
If you find yourself able to financially support the strike fund, they are accepting donations here.
