Digital picket line includes *all* NYT Games and the Cooking app
We are on ULP strike. We gave @nytimes management months of notice of our strike deadline, we made ourselves available around the clock, but the company has decided that our members aren’t worth enough to agree to a fair contract and stop committing unfair labor practices.

Only here to beg people to come to Blue Sky, it's so nice, and more people are there now (esp. recently—huge influx of Twitter refugees). Mwah! Miss you!

It’s like Aubrey Plaza was airdropped in from a different movie—a big campy comedy—and it’s great! The movie would be unwatchable without her. Or a *lot* less fun, anyway. #MEGALOPOLIS

An exiled Luis Buñuel accepting Franco's invitation to return to Spain based on Franco funding his next film, only to hand in Viridiana, as a fuck you to Franco, and get exiled again, is probably what we should save “punk as fuck” designations for, not a fucking Joker sequel
It's punk as fuck that Todd Phillips got $200M out of a multinational corporation, employed 1,000+ people, and made a film he wanted on his terms. It's kinda irrelevant if people don't like JOKER 2, we should be celebrating this madness.

The longshoremen are getting a 62% raise because having a union allows them to exert the leverage necessary to be paid what they are worth. The difference between a 62% raise and "shut up and go back to work" is having a union. You better unionize.

Thank god there are new WFMU t-shirts because I only have like twelve WFMU t-shirts. No, seriously, thank god. More, more, I say!
WFMU’s October Hellraiser, our mostly silent, off-air fundraiser, starts today! The Hellraiser helps us get through the winter months, as the funds we raised in our spring Marathon dwindle. Help us out with a donation and grab one of two new T-shirts. pledge.wfmu.org/donate?step=…

I am perversely happy that I am requiring my "Moviegoing" students to see MEGALOPOLIS. I cannot wait to experience their confusion, anger, gratitude, sleepiness, whatever
At the very least I paid money and I’ll honestly probably buy the Blu-ray of this wild ass film. It exists outside of good or bad. It just is.
