China Puts Gig-App Algorithms On The Bargaining Table

June 14, 2026 Gary Wilson, Struggle - La Lucha. , , , ,
On Sept. 6, 2024, a 55-year-old delivery rider identified by the surname Yuan was found unconscious on his electric scooter outside a residential complex in Hangzhou. He had been lying there for hours before anyone realized something was wrong. Other riders thought he was napping — because that was how Yuan rested. He worked 16 to 18 hours a day, taking orders from multiple platforms, lying down on his scooter between deliveries and getting back up the moment the next order hit his phone. He never got up again.

Mirlo Is Building Cooperative Tools For Music Distribution

December 16, 2025 Mittens XVX, Grassroots Economic Organizing. , , ,
Trying to stay consistent at running a DIY punk website for years often brings me a weird kind of pressure and internal conflicts: the routine of reviewing as many records as possible, the inertia of keeping up with the endless stream of new releases. And while I always care about lyrics, politics, and the band’s overall background, message, and context, in the end most bands and labels sending me music still feel like they’re grasping for attention in a world where the collective attention span is almost zero. Despite all the embedded politics in punk, DIY Conspiracy can still end up looking like just another music website with reviews and interviews, feeding free traffic and implicit endorsement to Bandcamp, YouTube, and other platforms.
