Automakers want to turn cars into a subscription service, making you pay monthly or annual subscription fees for key fobs, GPS, CarPlay and more. These add-ins are estimated to become a $200 billion market.

This was posted in the wake of Hurricane Helene, but it continues to remain relevant as Hurricane Milton approaches landfall, just a week after.

The only way to fight back is to build musicians' collective power. Streaming is the main way people listen to music, yet most artists are struggling to make a living while executives are cashing out millions. We need the Living Wage for Musicians Act NOW!

This is why Spotify sucks now. While Spotify execs are cashing out from streaming, your favorite artists are struggling to earn a living. It’s killing the music industry.

The billionaire family who own California’s water supply is trying to stop farm workers from organizing. The Resnicks secretly took control of the state’s public water supply in 1994. Now they’re trying to roll back a huge win for the farm workers who feed this country.

I have interviewed various queer elders over the past 5 years. One of the elders whose stories most touched me passed away recently. In his honor, I wrote a comic for The Washington Post. A thread (1/3)

This battle is another in a long list of unionization efforts among baristas across the United States over the last two years. We covered this in one of our recent videos, including the Compass Coffee fight.

THREAD: How far will bosses go to bust a union? After seven Compass Coffees in Washington DC decided to unionize, the company launched a huge union-busting campaign. The bosses are firing managers, bringing in an Uber lobbyist, and maybe even using a fake Twitter account.

The most fascinating local angle ever: Mean Girls was based on the experience of Montgomery County girls https://t.co/QxGtxstkYl

For decades, Jessica Jackson had a secret: Her high-school social life was an inspiration for the hit film “Mean Girls.”

Really proud of this story. I spent a month interviewing Black and Palestinian-American activists who traveled to Palestine after Ferguson. Their work is quietly fueling today's historic resistance against Israel’s war on Gaza.

It’s just such a profound betrayal of our profession - on so many levels - to describe the murder of one of our own in the passive voice
