Remember that the laws establishing and protecting the rights of unions were a shaky truce made by governments afraid of being overthrown. They’re a way to pacify unions, give them what they want so they don’t get angry enough to start burning shit again
Those laws aren’t what makes unions possible, viable, or effective. Those laws exist because unions were so effective even without them
People act like they can’t unionize just because they live in America, or their state is Right to Work, or the company they work for is notoriously anti-union. But labor movements survived periods of being literally mowed down with machine guns by the US Army - so we don’t need to be scared off by a few posters
The fundamental power of a union comes from the fact that we outnumber them, and that the workplace doesn’t move without our labor. That power doesn’t need to be permitted and can’t be legislated away. So join a damn union!
now THIS is a poll i can get emotionally invested in because when i was a child i LOVED Northern Exposure - i would ask my mom to watch ‘Nordern Sposure’. that character Janine Turner is playing i think is maybe the reason i wanted to cut all my hair off at age 8, and i’ve been immensely queer since then.
thank you Northern Exposure
Kellye Nakahara Vs. Janine Turner
Propaganda
Kellye Nakahara - (M*A*S*H) - I love her so much. the minute I heard her say "you haven't the faintest idea how terrific I am! for your information, I happen to have a fantastic sense of humour, a bubbly personality, and I'm warm and sensitive like you wouldn't believe! I also sing, and play the guitar, and I'm learning to tap dance! and on top of that, I happen to be cute as hell!" and storm out, I knew she was amazing. video of some of her best moments on MASH below (video below the cut)
Janine Turner - (Northern Exposure) - I had SUCH a crush on her in Northern Exposure. She plays a cool pilot lady. (I haven’t seen the show in a long time so that’s all I can really remember…)
