Jude🇵🇸<p>There's some pretty shit ABC coverage of various strikes going on currently... trains, Woolworths etc... in which 'journos' couldn't give a shit about the pay and conditions of the workers, just how it's going to affect the rest of us.

Jude🇵🇸<p>Usual shitty, unbalanced coverage of a public transit strike this morning... covering the inconvenience to the public, ad nauseum, but not the long term issue affecting the workers who are striking. It's not easy to organise a strike these days, so it's only a serious and lifestyle-affecting issue that triggers one (pay? conditions?).

Phil Tanner :tinoflag:<p>So, it turns out, if you want to hang out with a group of people with significantly higher mask wearing than the general population (tho still very much in the low single digit percentages 😔 But still, very much higher than you'll see anywhere else in public), you want to go hang out at Ra Union meeting.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.philtanner.com/tags/JoinYourUnion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JoinYourUnion</span></a></p>
