    Jenny Craig tells staffers it is winding down its weight-loss centers and warns of mass layoffs
    The private equity-owned company said it is looking for a buyer and considering shifting toward e-commerce, urging employees to “anticipate that your employment may be impacted.”

    Another big business about to bite the dust.

    I could have bought an 11 pull and have 1000 gems left over, but all I got was this silly title.

    One thing I'm really wondering about with this strike is if/when it ends if the studios will actually have to give hard numbers on what their streaming viewership, which studios are always purposefully obtuse about.

    Residuals based off viewership and the transparency needed to know those numbers is one of the key things the strike is about.

    it would be nice. it's fuckin ridiculous we still have to use nielsen ratings or one of the other readings to get a number now when i assume the streaming services should know pretty much exactly how many households watched what and for how long

    I think they need to rework the metrics they use, imo. It's long overdue. It's like measuring the success of a campaign with landlines when 95% of the population is using cellphones.

    3M to layoff 6k globally beginning June 30th. Their reasoning is that they aren't pulling covid production numbers of $1B+ in profits.

    Is it time to talk about UBI again or do we need to go deeper into the late stage capitalism hellscape?

    We can't even get minimum wage up. We're not ready for UBI.

    Is a capitalist system ever truly ready to remain one while offering concessions to gain stability? No siree.
