Not just union jobs, but traditionally union industries like auto workers as well. I have a friend that works in a factory in the US south. Not union, but the pay and benefits are close to keep UAW from gaining a foothold. He would complain about them handing out flyers in front of the plant every so often.

After a recent incident that had him sweating bullets over potentially losing his job for something minor (and having to face management and HR alone), I told him to take the leaflet next time. I hope he does.

OCD/AuDHD wreaks havoc on my executive function, and was left untreated for so long that my life is now falling apart.

I'm insufferable for completely different reasons.

Same and same. They came out swinging and I was 100% there for it.

I don't want the bonus points, I just want my mom to get the help she needs. But no... she's stubborn, prideful, etc. And even though she's a huge bigot and I want to punch her in the face, she's still my mom.

This was released on twitter as part of the 45th anniversary of Gundam as a franchise and to mark the 2-year anniversary of the original broadcast date of Witch From Mercury (October 2nd, 2022). Check out the Crunchyroll article for additional information. Synopsis of the first season from AniList:

A.S. (Ad Stella) 122

An era when a multitude of corporations have entered space and built a huge economic system. A lone girl from the remote planet Mercury transfers to the Asticassia School of Technology, run by the Beneritt Group which dominates the mobile suit industry.

Her name is Suletta Mercury. With a scarlet light burning in her pure heart, this girl walks step by step through a new world.

This show got a lot of hate at launch (as well as attempts at gatekeeping from the chuds bemoaning the influx of normies and "woke"), while I said screw that and enjoyed the excellent world building and storytelling. The pacing did fall apart in the second cour (to the point where I was convinced there was going to be another full season) but I still enjoyed it overall. Hard to believe it's been two years already.

I think I'm pre-traumatized just thinking about the implications of this crossover.
