Can't wait for every piece of media to be owned by either Disney or Netflix.
The streamer will acquire the studio, along with HBO and HBO Max.
Netflix is buying Warner Bros. for $83 billion
But what will they rename HBO Max this time?

I spent most of today cooking the leftover turkey into turkey noodle soup. Since I didn't get a chance to bake a cake for my girlfriend last week, we also had one tonight. I'm very happy with how both turned out!

frustrating that this piracy discourse is the same goddamn thing every time, has been for years, while discussion of exploitation of writers by publishers tends to remain very faint. it feels like this is a frequent steam valve for frustration, a group that can be yelled at without risking jobs.

You have to keep giving money to avoid collapse and if there’s collapse you have to give more money. It’s called the free market.

One day I woke up and decided I wanted to do a stop motion animation. So I animated a simple run cycle, printed each frame and stuck them around my city ✨️
(Which btw, I felt super guilty about)

It’s almost like we can’t trust corporations, and “representation” is not an ethical position but one based on trends and expected monetary returns and the rug can instantly be pulled back on decades of “progress.”
"According to the report, [...]during the 2024-25 television season, queer characters increased across platforms by 4%, bringing the total to 489. However, the Thursday report found that 41% of those characters will not return." www.thewrap.com/glaad-where-...

the reality is that the economy is held up far more by confidence fairies than lots of graph-obsessed dudes want to let on
and so far the capital class that ushered in trump is still, mostly, clapping so the confidence fairies continue to exist and chug on
there are limits to how long this lasts

I feel like the left more broadly wants economists to say that the economy is in shambles right now and the current "eh, I mean it is deteriorating but pretty slowly so far" is not satisfying

So these aren't the files the house was trying to release, just some odds and ends the oversight committee was just sitting on? Why are we just now seeing them? If they're this bad, what's still locked away?

This anthropological distance from which you choose to view moderation issues is just a rhetorical construct built for justifying cynical actions you felt like taking anyway.
It's not cute, nor is it an effective obfuscation.

False attribution. If a person is suspended it is because of their identity? Could it not be because of their content? I wrote about it here aaron.leaflet.pub/3m52nqqmk322v
