Unions are trash. Theyll Destroy a whole company for firing a shitty worker.

unions are the reason you aren’t paid 2.50 an hour with steel beams about to bust ya head open shut up lol

Unions are why you have 5 day, 40 hour full-time work weeks. Unions are why they have to pay you in actual dollars instead of “company credits” that you can only spend at the company-owned stores. Unions are why there are fucking fire exits at your place of work. Unions are why it’s not okay for your supermarket ground beef to be any percentage human.

You think your company pays you out of the goodness of their hearts? Or even out of “market pressure?” The “job market” is a myth perpetuated by the capitalists. Corporations would pay you nothing if they could get away with it. And you argue “oh, but if they paid me nothing I’d just go to another one.” Wrong. Because to maximize profits, they all want to pay you nothing. Corporations exist to maximize profits while reducing risk for investors. It’s part of their entire function to find ways to cut costs as much as possible, and that includes finding ways to pay you nothing.

Unions are your defense against that. You think all a union does is strike? If you pay union dues, a lot of that is spent on lobbyists in various governments reminding your lawmakers that you have rights as a living human being that a corporation should not be able to stomp all over. Unions hire lawyers so that if you’re fired for bullshit reasons, the union can stand up for you against your boss. They’re called unions because workers are uniting to pool resources so that they can stand up to these corporate overlords with more money than God. Unions exist because you might not have the words, resources, or time to fight workplace injustices all by yourself. That’s the whole fucking point.

And if a business shuts down because a union is striking, it’s because the business was abusing people and didn’t deserve to be in business anyway. Don’t make excuses for the corporations. They already have trillions of dollars and a couple million lawyers to do that for themselves. They don’t need your help.

The erasure of labor history from US history curriculum has caused so much fucking damage to this country. 

A lot of union folk very literally fought and died for the workers’ rights we have today. Like no joke, bosses would hire goons to straight-up murder unionizing and striking workers.

All the most basic workers’ rights we have today were all paid for in blood. And conservatives have never stopped trying to take them all away again.

NEVER FORGET THAT LABOR DAY IS ACTUALLY ABOUT. I know people who legitimately think it’s like a secondary mothers day - you know, for going into labor.

But it’s about workers rights and the people who campaigned for it to be a holiday knew this fucking day would come.

If you are in the US and about to celebrate a 3-day weekend, thank a goddamn union worker.

I remember that everything gay was rebranded pedophilia, child abuse, and inherently sexual thus pornographic, thus unsafe for children and public spaces and thus pedophilic and abusive. Neat false circle. Yeah. Does ring a fucking bell, doesn't it?

Me right now…

This blog is 100% pro-whore and pro-slut

my meds are ketchup and fork water

I don't know who needs to hear this, but it's time to take your ketchup and fork water

I've decided that the problem is August, and tomorrow I'm going to wake up feeling refreshed, or at least like I'm not in the process of dying.

It's because August is haunted. Like your body has to cling tooth and nail to your ghost because it wants to go preemptively join in the haunting. This causes feelings of death, or that perhaps death would be preferable.

⚠︎ ! your body has kept the score.

⚠︎ ! hospital ⚠︎ !

using "pack" instead of "chat". pack is this real.

Where's the African mythology?

The Kickstarter is live now!

I know I have close to zero Tumblr fame, which I normally appreciate, but I would love it if this made it into the world and got fully backed. You can even pledge to get the digital content and send a real copy to a school in Africa or to a HBCU or community library of your choosing!

I really think that we need to be at peace with the idea of people posting online for attention. Literally every free piece of media from shitposts to art is being made for the very human need for attention and that's healthy and okay. It's not harmful behaviour to make funnyman shitposts for attention. I love my useless internet clout points actually

'You're just posting that for likes and reblogs"

That's the whole point dipshit

Do you guys think I make wizard themed shitposts to realign my chakras or something
