Wild how we used to make fun of people for being addicted to their blackberries and all those things did were email and text.

Wait, he apologized for the blackface thing?

Did he apologize for the man show and/or his friendship with adam toyota?

Disney Prime Video + @disneyprimevideo.bsky.social · 25d

Our affiliates have made it very clear they expect Mr. Kimmel to apologize for his speech and unapologize for his blackface.

I can't answer the first question, but, pretty sure there's precedent for Ursula. Feels like maybe this is all a media representation issue more than anything else.

Does that mean stories don’t matter anymore? So confused. 🤔

Interesting side effect of being months behind on @muppeturgy.com, they keep referring to the mandatory Disney plus disclaimer on a specific episode (James Coburn, S5E5). That disclaimed was removed by the time I got to watching.

Yikes. 😬

There's something very gross about Bandcamp sales offsetting the cost of distributing to Spotify.

Honestly, I'm mostly jealous of swifties. So little new music by anyone gets me that excited. And I've built my whole life around music.

I haven't been that excited in ages. And to get that excited all the time? Love it. I want that.

This is what happened when I followed @jacobwakeup.bsky.social on Letterboxd:

Two emails in an inbox. The top subject line is "Rachel Hock started following you on Letterboxd" and below that is the subject line "We have to take this threat seriously, Jacob"
