In case workers need any additional arguments for why labor unions are good for them, a powerful new argument comes from none other than Elon Musk. Last month at the New York Times DealBook Summit, a gathering of lords of finance and industry, Musk said: “I disagree with the idea of unions … I just don’t like anything which creates a lords and peasants sort of thing.” That the world’s richest human dissed the idea of unions should certainly be seen as a selling point for unionizing. Musk’s statement shows that he realizes that unions can be highly effective in harnessing the collective voice and power of workers, not just to limit the autonomy of power-hungry CEOs like him in managing their companies, but also to counter the capricious and often officious way he runs things. Musk is allergic to the idea of letting workers and their union have a voice in how to run – and improve – things. Musk also sought to slime unions by saying: “Unions naturally try to create negativity in a company.” He seems to conveniently forget who has created the negativity at his companies. After acquiring Twitter, Musk fired four-fifths of its 7,500 workers. There, it was Lord Elon, not a union, that created a tsunami of negativity.

So, apparently, the whole "Tesla v. the Swedish Working Class" thing is actually getting juicier.
Earlier this month, PostNord refused to deliver license plates to Tesla owners. Tesla sued, and the court ruled that the transportation authority had to deliver them, somehow.
Apparently something changed, and the court has changed its mind. PostNord is no longer under obligation to deliver license plates to Tesla owners, for the time being.
Also, unions from Finland, Norway, and Denmark have all either joined the strike or threatened to join if demands are not resolved by a certain date. The Nordic market is one of the quickest growing EV marketplaces in the world, with Norway and Sweden being Tesla's fourth and fifth-largest markets, respectively. Scandinavia is invaluable to an EV-only company's success, so it'll certainly be interesting to see what becomes of the following weeks.

So lemme just "connect the dots" here:
So Russia pays for misinformation using bots created by Chinese tech companies creating fake accounts using user information collected from something like Zoom
Managed to help Trump and the GOP "fake news" their way to an election win
Chris ends up a target because he as well as others with a public platform who have spoken out against Trump, who have also been the victim of the same misinformation tactics in their fandoms to undermine their influence on public platforms, Christopher attempts to help debunk this by creating A Starting Point, which honestly seems to be the only thing still running that actually fact checks before publishing unlike mainstream media
His agency that has links to the GOP financially arrange for him to be linked to a racist Nazi (possibly also a scientologist) through the People Magazines sexiest man alive title and resulting PR
Meanwhile the WGA and SagAftra decide to strike and CAA take a massive hit because of the financial involvement and ends up having to sell a massive stake to Pinault to try and cover their losses and to enable the extension of the strike out until 2024 to try and bankrupt the strikers
Rumour spreads about Elon Musk, the guy that owns one of the public platforms secretly collecting info from Tesla vehicle owners to use as leverage and blackmail against famous people who have been filmed in their own vehicles using the tech installed in their cars
Meanwhile they send in the bigger stars like Clooney in with bad advice about what they can use to negotiate with and intentionally make them look like idiots to sow discord within Sag Aftra
(Get your fucking asses on the god damned picket line where they don't want you to be you fucking morons)
In the meantime the Georgia indictments continues while the GOP stalls electing a speaker to try and disable the US govt from being able to do anything meaningful as yet another distraction while possibly paying off a judge to mess things up for them
At this point yet another distraction breaks out in the form of Israel Vs Gaza being instigated by a terrorist group and no governments seem willing to enable a ceasefire agreement despite the continued loss of innocent civilians on both sides and takes over the main story in the media while the GOP continues to stall the speaker election to prevent the US govt from being able to do any more useful work
Meanwhile no one is looking into who is funding the Hamas, because no offence but I've never seen a terrorist group hold a fucking bake sale so somebody has to be funding them
In the meantime no one is looking at what China is trying to do in regards to Taiwan (yes it's called Taiwan, it's what the people who live there call it, it's why my country has two damn names) who also happened to get fucked over in regards to their tech in other countries with selling communication infrastructure
What the fuck am I supposed to do with this information?
Tumblr media
I can't even fix my car right now ✌️
I need a new blender and a rice cooker, they both shat themselves last night
The rice cooker fell on the floor and won't cook anything anymore, and the cuff bit holding the blade in place broke on the blender
I like my small appliances

Come on, you know you want to, give us the character bingo for Viktor.
don't mind if i doooo
Tumblr media
#ask me#okay there's a lot going on here but first things first#viktor has transcended the favorite character tier where I want to protect him or whatever#like yeah he did that shit! I support him but I also don't! the more trouble he gets himself into the happier I'll be!#do you feel me#like one of the things I love most about Viktor is that I feel so much sympathy for the circumstances he's in that are out of his control#but he has so much agency in his own story that everything he's gained and accomplished are because he makes choices#and GETS HIMSELF places#and now the same thing is happening with his BAD choices and I find that just as delightful if not moreso#he is the agent of his own salvation and his own destruction and I will be in the front row seat with popcorn for both or either#so writing him is mostly me studying him under the microscope poking him until he does something untoward it's very fun#I only hesitantly say that Viktor is like me but the Balkan ties and the grumpy-but-kind and obsessive personality#and the strong opinions about a chosen STEM field#are inescapable okay#mommy issues is not circled because I have mommy issues but bc I have convinced myself that Viktor WILL have them#if Nikola Tesla is anything to go by#the jayce-mel-viktor trifecta is ruled by mommy issues and i will stand by that claim#also viktor is more interesting with no therapy - with as little therapy as possible would be my preference#WITH THE EXCEPTION of the lonely genius shit that Singed planted in his head#that is absolutely the lie that Viktor believes that he MUST discard in order to progress as a character and I am excited for it#I genuinely think that Viktor will be happier and more eccentric as [REDACTED] but it won't last#he will hit a VERY LITERAL -if thy right hand offend thee cut it off- situation and then he'll have peace but he won't call it happiness#I can't say that I'd hate anyone who hurt him because that is half of why I'm excited for s2#but I will probably lose it at any scene where he loses to [REDACTED] for rivalry reasons#I genuinely do want to see Mel completely own his ass as [REDACTED] though like can you imagine the banter#and both of them secretly having fun with it

Huh, turns out Tessla really did wake up and choose violence in the TriStamp universe...But I kinda doubt she still approved Knives of doing, in order:
-Threaten Conrad at knife-point but keep him alive to create the Eye of Michael and the Plant-hybrid experiments with orphans. -Destroy towns and cities to "save" the Plants when they're being overused or near-death, but leaving said-overused Plants in Julai with no way to properly heal them. -Consistently traumatizing/gaslighting Vash and dropping him in The Soup (and you know…Episode 11), as well as Knives retraumatizing himself (and by extension Tess) by violently killing innocent lives in a bid to “give the Sinners their due punishment” and pushing Tess to reactively lash out at anyone who tries to hurt them or even get close to them…
I mean, if you put it into that context, then the entire battle at ep 12 is Knives having a three-way brawl instead; both with Vash and Tessla, with his sentient security blanket finally having enough with him constantly violating the other Plants’ autonomy and free will.
Like damn, way to dampen Knives’ already-sour mood getting booted out of the higher plane and choosing to help her "younger" brother for once after the mindfuck he went through. 80% of the battle the whips are even just dragging behind him or and not in attack mode anymore unless Knives forces it to happen (ie. burning himself out quicker). But hey, already crossing fingers they expand on all this in Season 2.

Strike against Tesla in Sweden will be joined by Denmark's largest union, the United Federation of Danish Workers (3F ).
After reports that anti-worker Musk's Tesla is strike breaking by rerouting shipments in Denmark to circumvent the strikes in Sweden, the transport workers' section of the union gives notice it will in 14 days stop handling Tesla cars headed for Sweden and will not handle them until Tesla "sits down at the negotiation table".
"Even if one is one of the richest people in the world, one can't just have your own rules. We have some agreements on the labor market in the Nordic Countries, and one must follow those if one wants to operate here", said 3F Transport's chairperson Jan Villadsen to TV2 in Denmark, adding that "IF Metall [metal workers' union, Sweden] and the Swedish employees are currently fighting in an incredibly important struggle. When they ask for our help, we naturally support".
Tesla continues to refuse commenting.
The Swedish Transport Agency also appeals the court order to strike break for Tesla, citing security reasons.

Hey, Nnoi! Opinion on Tesra's release? He is... mmm, burly~ (unlike someone else))))
Tumblr media
❝ My opinion, huh? ❞ He had to think about this one. He REFUSED to believe the ' unlike someone else ' was directed at him. Sure enough, Tesla's resurrection made him look really strong. The size of his body, the clearly visible muscles - it was the sort of appearance that spoke of strength. But, in the end, Tesla was not that strong. Not compared to HIM at least. The only thing that mattered to Nnoitra was strength. Everything else came second. He liked to believe that Tesla would stack up well against the other Fraccion and Arrancar in Las Noches ( of course, not counting the Espada ). But, he also knew that Tesla was a very young Hollow. He didn't have the battle experience that others had. Experience was far more important than people thought. It could make up for almost anything. It was how he had been able to defeat Nelliel, who ( though he'd never admit it out loud ) was stronger than him.
❝ Tesla 's pretty strong, if he was weak he wouldn't survive bein' my Fraccion. ❞ Nnoitra finally replied, a shrug rolling off his shoulders. There was no need to state that even if Tesla's release looked, and was strong, Nnoitra could kill him without lifting a finger. It was a little ironic, he thought, that Tesla's Resurrection was less human than his own. Nnoitra at least maintained a human-like face in his release. Not many people had SEEN Nnoitra's resurrection, because he never needed it ( and also, he disliked having to PRAY for Santa Teresa to help him out ). He wondered - was the fur that Tesla was covered in in his released form soft? Or was it hard like hierro SHOULD be?

New York CNN — Tesla has beaten back previous efforts by workers to unionize – but the United Auto Workers hopes a successful strike against Ford, General Motors and Stellantis could help it organize at Tesla. UAW membership has declined in recent decades, and the auto industry is moving to electric vehicles. EV battery and production plants thus far in the United States are mostly non-union. To grow, the UAW will have to make inroads at EV plants. “Tesla is the biggest threat in the long term to UAW wages and benefits. UAW doesn’t have any choice but to take on [Tesla],” said John Logan, a professor of labor and employment studies at San Francisco State University. Tesla controls around 60% of the electric vehicle market in the United States, and Detroit and foreign automakers in the South are racing to catch up. Tesla workers earn on average about $55 an hour in wages and benefits, compared to $66 to $71 an hour at Detroit’s Big Three, according to industry estimates. Workers have attempted to organize at Tesla at least three different times. But the company, led by Elon Musk, has been difficult for unions to break into because of weak protections for labor organizing in the United States; Tesla’s aggressive tactics; and Tesla’s strategy of granting factory workers stock options, a rarity in the auto industry. “Tesla will go to extraordinary lengths to prevent unions,” Logan said. Tesla did not respond to CNN’s request for comment.

*frantically googling sunset times*
#KP 9 ?!?!?!! NINE??? G5?????? 2003 Halloween solar storm levels???? ''walk outside and look up past 10 pm'' ???? hello???#idk the chance that i see a damn thing esp naked eye but getting a phone notif of a 33% chance at 5:45 pm BROAD DAYLIGHT#like what#nadia rambles#okay ftr if it is visible and you do go out there be careful wrt reliance on satellite signals and GPS and radio etc#if it's strong enough there will be a lot of noise at minimum and worse case scenario it might completely knock out sat and gps#and cause major radio interference - at least temporarily#could also cause power outages which is more of a problem on the eastern coast of the US and Canada due to the structure of the grid#west coast has shorter east-west lines and more redundancies than east coast interconnection#east coast has longer east-west lines which makes it more vulnerable to geomagnetic interference and damage#plus the geology of the ground for buried lines also makes a difference. if you live in an area with less conductive soil materials#buried lines are more likely to overload from geomagnetic interference as all of the power will be funneled into the lines#if you have more conductive ground around the buried lines there's less funneling so less chance of major surges and outages#I am not sure about effect on electric cars but historically strong geomagnetic storms like this have affected the lights in times square#just as one example (tho it was prob grid related it could have also been direct induction surging the lights)#so it may be worth a little bit of caution as certain lights or parts of the electrical grid or possibly vehicles may have some troubles#you wanna know what tesla coils were invented for? wireless electrical power. they can power lights from a distance w/ no contact#geomagnetic storms also do this
