Sometimes a drug trip is a profound experience where you realize that you’ve been carrying pain in your heart for years, that you can forgive yourself. Other times you come up with a concept called “gay money” (money that’s gay) and you text your friend “gay money” days later. Both are healing. ❤️‍🩹

But of all the fighting games, how do we determine which are serious, competitive games and which are just party games? Oh my dear doctor, they're *all* party games Even the Esports games? *Especially* the Esports games

Finished Misericorde. My first visual novel I've ever played in fact. Enjoyed it, though it did take me a bit to get used to some genre conventions. I'm glad the music and character art was good because for a lot of it I struggled to shake the feeling that it could have just been a book. Good/10

Strike has begun, 3,800 meat packing workers in Colorado have walked off the job

JBS WORKERS BEGIN 2 WEEK UNFAIR LABOR PRACTICE STRIKE AGAINST JBS

Nearly 3,800 JBS-owned Swift Beef workers in Greeley, Colorado represented by UFCW Local 7 took to the picket lines today protesting unfair negotiating tactics and unlawful reprisals.

Greeley, CO – United Food and Commercial Workers Local 7 members at Greeley’s Swift Beef Company, owned by JBS N.V. began a two week Unfair Labor Practice Strike at 5:30 a.m. on Monday, March 16, 2026. Workers will remain out on the picket lines until JBS comes to the table to negotiate fairly with workers and rights its unlawful union busting.

In February, after months of negotiations, workers voted overwhelmingly to authorize an unfair labor practice strike against JBS as a result of the Company’s refusal to negotiate fairly with workers and fix the company’s pattern of wage theft, provide raises to workers that keep pace with the rising cost of living in Colorado, and ensure stable health care costs for workers. Instead of shifting toward fair treatment, the Company has recently doubled down on its illegal tactics by threatening workers with termination if they did not resign from the Union and refuse to strike. These recent actions come on top of a pattern of retaliatory conduct against a member of the bargaining committee and others who have spoken out against the Company.

UFCW Local 7 President Kim Cordova, the Union’s chief spokesperson, stated, “For months now, JBS has been insisting on poverty-level wages for workers at the plant, offering less than 2% in average annual wage increases, far below the level of inflation in Colorado, while at the same time putting all the risk of rising healthcare costs on workers. Meanwhile, despite being the world’s largest protein producer, JBS has been stealing from workers’ paychecks to fund the Company’s profits. JBS must do right by these workers and negotiate lawfully. Make no mistake, JBS chose this strike in an effort to lower worker wages nationwide, just a…
