Ha sido difícil sentarme sobre las manos estas semanas, pero por fin se puede contar: Domestika está inmersa en un ERE en el que planea despedir a un 45 % de su ya mermada plantilla actual. Cuesta creerlo, pero es así y hay bastante que decir al respecto. lavanguardia.com/economia/20230…

To anyone who experienced a lay off at Conde Nast or Vox, please reach out. I don't typically take freelance stories at Parents but can always look over a pitch in case it's a fit or pass it on to the right person + always looking for writers to whom I can assign stories.

Was unexpectedly laid off from Mother Jones on Friday the 13th. I’ve been deprived of direct access to my Google Drive, which contains 7 years worth of work. And am also ineligible for unemployment. A terrible Christmas for me and my family. If you have leads for work, pls lmk.

a white athlete teaming up with another white athlete to smear a significantly more successful black athlete as “a bully” because she told them to stop bullying trans people online… i know what you are

Lleva 70 años viviendo en la casa. Un fondo buitre la compró. Le subió el alquiler a 2.650 €. Su pensión es de 1.400 €. Tiene 87 años y la desahucian el 29 de octubre. Asi es como el rentismo está destrozando vidas y ciudades, sin que el Gobierno haga nada.

People I know at the Washington Post in Kyiv have been left stranded here and unable to literally pay for their travel home. They were fired by Bezos in an email - after years of high risk important work. It’s absolutely disgraceful
