what's this? an anti-corporate message that sneers at cable TV companies??? CANCEL THAT SHOW!!!

that show was so amazingly prescient: the theme of the first episode was how advertising literally kills its viewers and the news covers things up. No wonder they didn't get renewed. ;)

If they'd nominated the show as a Drama it would have lost everything to Succession.

well at least now we know what it takes to find The Bear funny.

allow me to rebut:
It feels like in most cases Apple is saying "I can do whatever the fuck I want and you won't remember a goddamn thing", like the lovely lady in that movie Memento.

Apple had a new phone out, they pushed a software update to slow down the old phones, and didn't tell anyone they did it: end of story. I remember the very day this happened, no word of a lie. For it to take this goddamn long to actually be financially accountable for doing this is a crime unto itself.

I wish I'd read this article before Social Media destroyed my soul. Oh well.

and hey, seeing as the soulless need music now more than ever: go listen to my band's second album! https://songwhip.com/thethreeleonards Even if your soul has also been lost to Social Media I'm sure there will be something you enjoy.

See? Only a soulless artist would plug their art this shamelessly. :)

"Space Doggity" by Jonathan Coulton still gets me. It's about Laika, the first dog in space. Also the first dog to not come back from space. Jonathan is a particularly genius songwriter and this one does not disappoint.

Why Should I Cry For You is both beautiful and pleasant and ruinous

This reminds me of the posts people used to make on FaceBook where they'd post a paragraph of text specifically denying FB/Meta the right to do anything with their personal data. It's well-intentioned, but it may not persuade a bot to ignore what you write.

Articles mentioning immigrants and "the housing crisis" have been all over Canadian media for well over a year. And by Canadian media I mean "U.S. owned media outlets operating within Canada." The narrative has stuck.

about as inspiring as Canadians that WANT to be ruled by American laws.
