I’ve been downtown twice since I left that job in May 2025. Both times were for specific meals and we didn’t do any walking around. Seeing people in fatigues walking in groups of 3 just really doesn’t say “wander and explore” our tourist district. END THE OCCUPATION #memphis

I placed a Target order for shipping with 11 items in it. The two items shipped via UPS arrived a day early. The other nine items shipped by target’s local delivery team are already a day late. I might as well have ordered from Amazon.

Starbucks Workers United @sbworkersunited.org · 25/08/2026
🚨BREAKING: Our union of over 12,000 baristas are officially calling for a Starbucks boycott. Read this statement penned by Starbucks workers on why a boycott from ALL customers, allies, and organizations is necessary to fight back against corporate greed:
BOYCOTT STARBUCKS is written inside a zig-zaggy speech bubble against crumbled paper. Beside it are the Starbucks Workers United logo and an image of a coffee cup being poured out.We, the 12,000 and growing members of Starbucks Workers United, call on everyone who stands with working people to boycott Starbucks until they finalize a contract with union baristas and stop union-busting.
What we’re fighting for is simple: a minimum $17/hr wage, enough hours to live on, better staffing in our stores, and basic workplace protections. Every year, our living costs rise but our wages don’t keep up – a growing pressure many American workers are feeling as corporate greed accelerates unchecked in our country. 
Starbucks is banking on customers' blind loyalty to the integrity and values this company once stood for in order to keep squeezing them for profits. At a time when working-class people across the country are struggling in a challenging economy, it is no longer possible to be both a Starbucks customer and in support of workers; choosing to spend money at Starbucks is choosing a law breaking corporation over the baristas who make your coffee everyday exactly as you ask for it.
Starbucks has violated U.S. labor law more than any other company in modern history–the NLRB and its judges have found that Starbucks committed hundreds of labor violations and there are currently more than 550 unresolved unfair labor practice charges still pending against the company. Instead of finalizing a fair and reasonable union contract, Starbucks has repeatedly demonstrated a lack of care for the workers who fuel the company’s profits by wasting millions of dollars on AI and technology that doesn’t work, launching countless gimmicky drinks designed to distract from real problems, and inventing pointless policies that do nothing but make our jobs harder. 
This ongoing, irrational behavior by Starbucks and its refusal to settle a fair union contract with workers leaves us with no other choice than to call for a boycott. We know when working people stand up together, we win. 
No Contract? No Coffee.

I absolutely understand why people are mad, but I need folks to understand that consumers do not pay tariffs, consumers pay higher prices because of the tariffs.

Just Cara @iamjustcara.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
YOU didn’t pay any fucking tariffs. That’s like saying you paid for the electricity at the mcDs that made your fucking hamburger. No, you paid for the hamburger and you had to pay a VA price high enough to cover all of their costs and one of their costs was tariffs.

I will never support this Platner-promoting bitch again, but you people have to realize that the *companies* paid the tariffs directly to the government so only the *companies* are able to get refunds from the government. That’s how cost of goods works, you dumbasses.

The push for Harry Potter the TV show is going to be completely enormous—they're debuting it on fucking Christmas—and it is the responsibility of TV critics to contextualize this as rewarding the world's most transphobic billionaire (which is saying something) in everything we write about it.
