It never ceases to amaze me how many corporations who lock all their content behind paywalls continue to lose profit year after year because of this and yet none of them learn anything. Information should not be privatized.

Great piece. But like… who is this reveal for? How many people were hungry for Miracleman to join the Marvel Universe? And how many of those people were like “but I want it to be a different guy all together”?

After years of teases, Miracleman’s Marvel story just took a major step forward. 👀 ⚡️ From an accidental 2019 reveal to Timeless, variant covers, and The Silver Age, we break down the long road to a moment Marvel has been hinting at for years:

Not just disbelief. Resentment. You made all of our lives harder. I pay more for fuel because of this.

A lot of people want to cast the blame for the outcome of the 2024 election on Harris and on the Democratic Party in general. But this was a reflection on American voters. People all over the world gasped in unbelief as we elected a felon. And are now like “well, this corruption is surprising!”

My union has been in contract negotiations for almost a year to get Universal Studios to pay us a livable wage. We have a demonstration set for tomorrow, which was when Fast and Furious was going to open. But they decided to do a botched opening today rather then get the press of our demonstration

Fuck yes Macklemore. Beautiful statement. Also, aside about him as a person, a friend used to work at a restaurant in Seattle he used to go to often. Apparently he was an extremely generous tipper. So just a good fucking guy all around.

New: Macklemore says Robert Kraft — who owns Gillette Stadium, where Macklemore & Ed Sheeran were to perform later this month — called Sheeran. Kraft rallied other owners together behind an ultimatum for Sheeran: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you won't be allowed in our venues.

I'm not sure how to start this. So I'm going to speak from the heart and share the truth. Ed Sheeran and his team have made the decision to remove me from The Loop tour. But before I get into it, I want to say something that should be obvious. In this moment I think it matters. I am not a victim. Ed Sheeran is not a victim. Pink is not a victim. We have careers, money, opportunities, safety and audiences around the world. Whatever consequences any of us face for what we say, we get to go home to our families. The victims are the Palestinian people. The men, women and children who have been killed, starved, displaced and forced to live through unimaginable violence. More than 20,000 children have been killed in Gaza alone. People are being killed today, and people will be killed tomorrow. I want to make sure that as I tell this story, we don't lose sight of that. Ed is my friend. I've known him for 13 years. We've shared late nights, studio sessions and stages. He has this infectious magic about him that I've grown to love. I consider him a brother. And because of that, we've had some difficult conversations this past week. The type of talks rooted in love and respect for one another that still end in a place of fundamental disagreement. Nothing I'm writing here is out of spite or because I want to tear down his character. But as I told Ed multiple times on the phone, our friendship can't change my responsibility to tell the truth about what happened. Last Monday, in the middle of all the media attention surrounding Pink and what I said at MetLife, Ed told me that Robert Kraft called him. We were scheduled to play Gillette Stadium later this month, which is owned by the Kraft Group. Ed told me that Kraft said I would not be allowed to perform in his stadium. Ed also told me that Kraft had rallied some of the other stadium owners and collectively they gave him an ultimatum: if Macklemore stays on the tour, you will not be allowed to play in our venues. Ed was in …
