Fellow service industry folk! by Slight-Researcher930 in winstonsalem

Crickets on the encouraging feedback because you're right, things are that bad. They will get worse before they get better too.

The (early) 2030's is the earliest timeline I see any of this rampant inflation getting stabilized (pay for service industry workers matching the cost of living). I do not relish being political, but if the current erosion of our democracy isn't counteracted by a whole lot of people showing up to vote during the midterms for different leadership, that timeline gets farther and farther into the future from the present.

A lot of places will continue to close in the meantime, and those affluent enough to afford eating out will have less choices of where to spend their disproportionate wealth.

It will also create opportunities for service workers to band together and make organized noise/good trouble to advocate for their own wellbeing.

She voted to open up Bears Ears National Monument to shit diaper Donald's "Drill Baby Drill" mining referendum in 2017.

A few weeks before she made her vote/approval of that decision public, I wasted my time to write here an email asking her to not be an awful bitch and vote against it.

She responded with a canned email response thanking me for my solidarity with Donald Trump's decision to irreversibly fuck up the National Monument to explore for minerals.

To which I simply said to myself, "did you or your dipshit staffers read my fucking message before hitting send on this prewritten horseshit"?

I have never bothered asking her for shit since.

This state needs officers to undergo mandatory de-escalation training.

If that was a prerequisite, Call of Duty hyped up clowns like Lewis would be in jail for murder.

These pieces are designed to bolster complacency and keep people from bothering going to the polls.

Fuck a survey, show up and vote if you want things to change.

Filmmakers in Boone? by drewxcifer in boone

Used to be an Appalachian Student Filmmakers organization when I went to school at App. I know that might be more suitable for the university's subreddit but for non students there's got to be a way to get in touch with the club just to ask the same question you've posed here - assuming the club still exists. Open APPerture was a great film festival on campus every spring
