I have looked through the NYT's financial statements and people should know that the NYT's profits have gone up significantly since 2022, not because of news-only subscription revenue, but because of revenue driven by puzzle and recipe subscriptions, alone or bundled with news.

This may be true of others but I actually got express permission from the trans community to keep NYT games and recipes. I also have a news subscription, which is arguably worse, so I had to specifically send in a written request. Took 30 days but I got approved.

In other words, NYT is increasingly becoming a gaming and recipe company, with revenue from that business helping subsidize the higher costs of their journalism (which has been weaponized in favor of trans genocide). They depend on liberals not caring enough to boycott them.

played some gartic with @vorchitect.bsky.social and @fatiocatio.bsky.social the other day and one of our results was this, which i thought was simply inspired so i rolled with it meet Jack! a dealer at a dubiously legal casino that uses his psychic powers to stop people from winning *too* much

want to go home but have to do overtime bc fuckton of work... yea one person to do 200+ pcs, totally. with help. but that help got reassigned. so now what.

Were we playing with fire? Yes, yes we were, but also back then we had the anonymous internet and the internet wasnt infesting every aspect of our lives. That internet is gone, that's why we miss it. Now we are expected to surre der our data & be always online to be sold to. That's what changed.

this isn't very popular to say, but for me personally, it was good that i had unrestricted internet access when i was a minor. i was aware of what i was doing and enjoyed it. i don't look back on it and go "well that was a mistake", i look back on it and wish i could do it for the first time again

I still have one slot left of this style for £20 btw! They will be closing soon so I can open regular comms (prob 10th aug) but i will be adding them to my main comm options at the end of the month (though the price will probably increase)

felt inspired and I've been wanting to draw a very round and cute kitty for a WHILE now! I locked tf in. art for @squeakitties.bsky.social ! #rubbermon #furry

Still wild to me a significant number of self-described leftists treated reparations as an obscure gotcha obviously posited as a trap.
