Hey just received this email from @Postmates referencing an incredibly misleading and false “$29.93/hr” minimum wage. This inflammatory language is clearly designed to confuse customers and create division. Not cool.

Attention followers: this is my favorite Conan bit of all time. I remember seeing this in college and being so high and thinking I was gonna die from laughing so hard. This influenced me very deeply. They literally do not make late night like this anymore.

“A Crew Member Fixes Conan's Eisenhower Mug”. One of the stupidest things we ever did and that’s saying something. #FlashbackFriday youtu.be/Ya4RNdZtPow?si=viEI… via @YouTube

Union Square is getting a Target! This unveiling symbolizes a key trend in our city’s economy. We're not coming back — we ARE back. This convenient location is going to bring jobs, foot traffic, and revenue to one of New York City’s most iconic areas.

A reminder from your friendly neighborhood disabled journalist: War is a mass disabling event. It creates newly disabled people with visible and invisible disabilities. Losing electricity and power harms disabled people. There's always a disability angle to war.
