A photo of the picket line outside of the New York Times headquarters at 620 8th Ave in Midtown Manhattan. The line stretches beyond the far right edge of the frame. One worker at the far left wearing a checkered red and black longsleeve shirt is holding a bullhorn, and the person behind them is holding a “Past Time for Contract” sign written in blackletter script.

STRIKING BACK 1. Disruption: It's viewed as a positive when the investor class does it. Finance bro: "Move fast and break things! WHEE!" 2. But when workers interrupt business as usual... Woman on picket line with sign saying "Writers on strike" CEO: Waah! So disruptive! Now is not the time, guys! 3. Yes, it's a radically disruptive idea to pay workers enough to live on. Writer beseeching CEO in office: I would like to afford my rent in LA. CEO: Seems pretty unrealistic. 4. If they can dish it out, they can take it. Stock price shown going down on TV screen on wall CEO: How dare you do this to our great business? Striking WGA member and SAG-AFTRA member with signs. SAG-AFTRA guy: Adapt or die, suckas!

THE PERKS OF CHILD LABOR 1. 'Hey corporations! Have you considered the benefits of 14 year-old workers?' Girl pushing pallet of boxes 'Look at that cute little hard hat.' 2. 'These adorable scamps are learning valuable assembly line skills instead of wasting time with homework.' Kids working on assembly line 'Keeps 'em from encountering any rebellious ideas.' 3. 'Statistically, kids are safer from mass shootings in a meatpacking plant than in school.' Kid has accidentally cut off own arm while trimming meat 'Maybe they'll lose a limb, but hey, they'll probably survive.' 4. 'Best of all, they're cheap and their brains haven't developed enough to form unions!' Kid carrying bag of cement mix - 'Form what?' 'Don't you worry about it!'
