@kate you'd think so, but the union doesn't care about properly paying draftees! they're not eligible to be in the union yet so they don't have any stake in properly representing them

it's the same reason minor leaguers have constantly gotten shafted in CBA negotiations—the MLBPA is in the business of representing current major league baseball players, and they see the rights of minor leaguers and incoming draftees and international signees as little more than negotiating chips

which sucks!

the owner of the Mets just tweeting out that they’re undervaluing draft players’ slot contracts by like 5x is crazy. theyve got cba negotiations next year and he just handed the union a massive tool

Mastodon neither started nor standardised the Fediverse, it is merely the most well-known server. The Fediverse was developing before Mastodon, and if Mastodon starts to decay the Fediverse will comfortably outlive it.

And so will all your crazy nichey subcultures.

Don't worry.

I lost to a [[Valakut Exploration]] gimmick deck yesterday. Godspeed you crazy bastard

The federal eviction moratorium expires today. The fact that it was in place for over a year shows how senseless evictions are in the first place. Aren't wealth disparities in the US bad enough already?

Here's a poster promoting eviction defense to use in your community:
