TUFKAK Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 23 minutes ago, sblfilms said: I looked around California and SF is not a particularly highly unionized labor force, only around 5% of private sector employees are union members. Individual people might be more friendly to labor and unionization, but I’m quite sure there are non-union firms that can handle cleaning a building and won’t have a problem not standing with the union cleaning crew. Too lazy to fact check this but to use my previous example, I think it’s roughly 40% of RNs here are unionized (do not quote me this could easily be off)and it still drives pay to the highest in the nation across private and public sectors. They’re not rewarding 20% pay increases out of the goodness of their hearts. Kaiser just got 22.5%, Seiu went on strike and won everything they asked for last year etc. Not crossing lines is a major thing culturally here too. This scales down to micro level events. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewhyteboar Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Elon must be the neediest man in the universe. The divorced dad energy coming off of him is so strong it can be detected in the next solar system. He blew billions of dollars just so incels with usernames like @88hatlerwasright88 could retweet his facebook memes. What a loser. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This due to Apple claiming a 30% commission on in-app purchases, but iOS users will be able to circumvent the added charge if they sign up for Twitter Blue via the web.

I remember reading something a few years back that said even still a majority of iOS users subbed directly in the app despite being able to sub from the web browser in the very same device.
