Coffee drinkers! Listen! Starbucks workers nationwide are starting a 3-day strike today (Friday 12/16) as part of their effort to unionize.
How can you help? Don't cross the picket line. Get your coffee elsewhere. (Preferably at independent coffee shops. Long live small biz).
And spread the word! Make this message viral. Let's hold billionaire corps accountable because worker's rights are human rights. Let's go.
Whataboutism, noun.
It is November 21, 2022. I am watching Sean Hannity’s Fox News show. He is talking about Hillary Clinton’s email server.

The only parallel I've ever seen to Twitter's current self-destruction was the Digg 4.0 fiasco.
At one time Digg had ~450 million users. Then they tried to push an extremely unpopular update that caused users to leave en masse.
Where did they go? Reddit.
And now Reddit is one of the biggest social media sites on the planet.
By the way, a whole lot of Internet users have forgotten about Digg -- or don't even know it existed.
Twitter could be Digg but on a much larger scale.
