This is exactly why we organize! The ability to go to arbitration and win @karenattiah.bsky.social her job back only exists because of the strong @postguild.bsky.social collective bargaining agreement.

Solidarity forever! ✊
Wearing @postguild.bsky.social red today.

I was able to challenge my @washingtonpost.com firing — and win reinstatement plus back pay — all thanks to being a part of the @wbng.org Guild.

Binding Arbitration is a part of our contract.

This is why unions matter!!!

Chris Hayes: Trump and his allies are unleashing a wave of anti-Muslim bigotry. In Michigan, that hatred is already consuming candidates in their own party.

This is a top-five Weird Trump moment. Trump actually does something good (for likely the wrong reason$ – we'll see), and asks for medical grade hallucinogenics.
Embracing psychedelics doesn't seem like much of a stretch for the guy who raved about people eating cats and dogs

One of the most enjoyable columns I've ever read:
We connected with academics, a meteorologist, an expert in historical combat and a zoo curator for the scouting report on these fights.

Presenting the Battle of the Mascots ⤵️ (free to read)
Which March Madness mascot would win a real world encounter? We asked zoologists and other experts (Gift Article)
Mythic beings? Severe weather events? Apex predators? The Athletic asked zoologists, meteorologists who wins the "mascot fight" bracket.

You were saying something about "tactical military brilliance" in the A-block this morning? @waytooearly.bsky.social @alivitali.bsky.social @mpolymer1.bsky.social
The U.S. was responsible for a strike on an Iranian elementary school, an ongoing military investigation found. The inquiry said the strike — which Iranian officials said killed at least 175 people, most of them children — was the result of a targeting mistake. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/11/u...

“More than just being unconstitutional, and very clearly illegal under international law, this war is also morally reprehensible. It's wrong,” says Chris Hayes. “All of this may sound obvious, but it must be said.”
