Anyone skeptical about the power of #unions and what they can do for workers (and remember; if you don't own the means of production, you are a worker) should check out Iceland with its 92.2% participation. Today three large unions, that collectively have around 1/5th of the nation as members, agreed to terms with industry representatives and the government for all kinds of workers benefits for the next four years. Unions work, as long as people join them. https://www.ruv.is/frettir/innlent/2024-03-07-langtimasamningur-til-fjogurra-ara-undirritadur-406805

You're allowed to post on your blog once every decade, and you don't even need to apologize for it. That's also part of having your own space. Personal sites aren't a competition, and productivity doesn't have to be a metric. (note to self)
