@soxonthebrain.bsky.social can't help but think the assholes have pushed so far so fast that they're likely to end up like Stillson in The Dead Zone.

@soxonthebrain.bsky.social maybe someday we can boldly go forward.

@soxonthebrain.bsky.social others have pointed this out, but I didn't think of it until they did: World Series could end up Seattle Mariners vs. Seattle Pilots. 😉

@soxonthebrain.bsky.social I've had this for years. Had to dust it off. Nobody can survive 1200 more days of this.

I've seen this a few times. More likely, indeed.

@soxonthebrain.bsky.social I went to the Great Wall of Shiba to ask who is going to win game 3, but all they would say was "Ima sugu kare o hazuse."

Jane Goodall was a hero who used her life to make the world a better place. If the world uplifted and amplified people like her over fascists and billionaires, the world would be a very different place. #3E

@soxonthebrain.bsky.social Even though MLB isn't really on my radar anymore, I do know it's Sox v Yanks this week. Old Boston Doge is out of mothballs and ready.

@soxonthebrain.bsky.social all of this, but especially the last part. They'd never give up that sweet Super Bowl money.

Keith Olbermann @olbermann.bsky.social · 20d

TL;dr?

ABC and Disney reminded Sinclair that they can charge Sinclair a preemption fee each time they don't run Kimmel, and can run Kimmel on a different station in that market, and if it's a long-term problem they can cancel affiliations

Super Bowl, ABC, 16 months from now

UPDATE: Sinclair is NOT going to broadcast Jimmy Kimmel, even though ABC is resuming production.

Sinclair has demanded that Kimmel personally donate to Turning Point USA, a right-wing political organization.

David Smith, executive chairman of Sinclair, donated 250K to Turning Point USA last year.

@soxonthebrain.bsky.social this was quite good. The only problem was that the studio audience wasn't as in tune with it as his Comedy Central studio crowd used to be. They caught on and it got a better reaction as it went. #ColbertReport

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!

The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice.
As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree.
Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich.
Silencing us impoverishes the whole world.
The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

He'll never do it. So, he won't be back on. ABC/Disney made this decision. Now, if he wants whatever they owe him for the remainder of his contract, he'll have to be quiet, otherwise they can fire him for cause and not pay. But, boy, it would be great if he decided he's got enough money.
