if you don't know your physical address then yeah I think you should be punted into space. I think you're a moron. I don't trust any goddamn thing you are trying to sell me and I think you're actively dangerous

just realizing they did this “merger” nonsense on a day in which the majority of the town has not eaten since last night, like an entourage episode from the seventh layer of hell
weird day to be worried about state-run tv, gavin!
Governor Gavin Newsom@governor.ca.gov · 2w agoFirst, Trump banned independent news from the White House. Now, he's launching what is quite literally state-run TV to try drowning out the fact that he and his corrupt administration are failing the American people. This is truly autocratic behavior from a failed President.
Did Bonta get ANYTHING from Ellison? Because the 30-films-a-year deal that is being reported has been promised for months, and the "editorial board" overseeing CBS and CNN means nothing without teeth. To me it sounds like Ellison threatened to move Paramount out of CA, and Bonta and Newsom folded.
By the time this merger ruins HBO, destroys WB, gets 5,000 people fired, moves production overseas, and guts the quality of the movies the new studio makes, most people will have forgotten how fast the AGs caved and how little they got in this deal. Writers will not.
Phil Lewis@phillewis.bsky.social · 2w agoParamount has reportedly reached a settlement with California and other states suing to block its proposed acquisition of Warner Bros
The State AGs were on pace to kill the Paramount/Warner Bros by litigation and delay until Gavin Newsom stepped in and turned the tide. Now the Trump loyalist Ellisons will control CNN and HBO. Don't ever, ever forget that Newsom stabbed us in the back www.wsj.com/business/med...

The time to push candidates toward more progressive policies is NOT after they get in office. It’s before. We have to look out for everybody. That may include a type of person that is not in your life!

Hungry kids can't learn. Trump & Republicans cut SNAP and gave billionaires & corporations a tax cut while throwing our kids under the bus to pay for it. This is cruelty as a policy choice.

Coyote vs. Acme is so well-timed: The billionaires are the "humans" and the rest of us are the "cartoons." The cartoons are resilient and don't fight back collectively when abused, exploited, and tested on to make products & profits better for the humans, until they learn others are making stands.
Anne Lutz Fernandez@lutzfernandez.bsky.social · last mo.The reasons for opposition vary, but: People want to breathe clean air and have clean water to drink. They want to enjoy being outdoors. They don't want to hand everything -- their income, their work, their schools, their communities, their freedom, their planet -- to tech billionaires.

Minnesota Reformer@minnesotareformer.com · last mo.This summer's food recalls are broader in scope, longer-lasting, and more severe than past years as regulators are slow to respond. The parasite surveillance staff at the CDC, which responds to outbreaks (such as cyclosporiasis), was downsized last year by DOGE from 11 people to three.

Coyote vs. Acme is not only hilarious and a delight to behold, it also nails its emotional beats harder than basically any grown-up fare you’ve seen this year? Trying to vault this as a tax write-off has to be one of the more anti-art decisions from an entertainment exec this century
Between David Byrne and Coyote vs Acme this weekend, I am once again reminded that ART FOR ARTS SAKE ALWAYS WINS
When Amadeus first transferred from London to Broadway in 1980 the Broadway production starred Tim Curry as Mozart and Ian McKellen as Salieri and I would like to go back in time and watch that.
What horseshit. She embraced gay people at the height of the AIDS crisis, embraced trans people at the height of the war against them, supported Black communities and artists, and wrote the most pro-worker's rights feminist pop song of all time. Neutral my ass
