Netflix just gave Gavin Newsom 2 million for the redistricting fight and made a deal with Sesame Street. New episodes will air there and the backlog of old episodes will Be free to watch. Netflix picked a side. I will keep my subscription.
The simplest response to that is that it doesn't cost "the country" anything, workers do want them, and release the Epstein files.
Want.

That's...not a cat.
I was just looking at solutions for posting to multiple social media at once, tried Zapier but maybe this is more what I'm looking for.
Not my record, but still... #nytgames #crossword
What next? Lego tariff Tea Party?

As a Lego fan, I voted against Trump. Also, literally, I was going to order some missing pieces this weekend but there goes that.
Calling it a "white elephant" seems apt.
I wish he'd just start shooting heroin again.
She should just resign now. All Republicans who don't support what their party is doing for democracy should resign in silent protest. Claim health or family reasons.
Didn't most tyrannical Roman Emperors end up being killed by their Praetorian Guards?
My therapist said that I'm suffering from paranoia... well, he didn't actually say that; but, I could tell that's what he was thinking.
There is some sort of mental activity, to be sure, but his head is mostly bone. That's why his face is so small.
"Thinking" may be too generous here.
It didn't work, because apparently I have to use facebook Pages and I can't be bothered at this point.
Another fucking parasite. He better hope a disgruntled CDC employee doesn't accidentally drop shit fever samples in his coffee.
Don't they turn up not to be so bad in the end anyway?
They don't though, because that's taking a lot more risks for the same amount of money. Don't worry, though: as the US economy declines due to Trump's idiotic policies, less and less people are going to migrate there to find a better economical future.
So basically all that the rest of the planet needs to do to crash the US economy is to constantly use CoPilot and ChatGPT through VPNs, making sure to say "please" and "thank you" every time in order to maximize computer usage.
It's not a progressive/conservative thing, but is rather linked to education and prosperity. He's basically admitting that progressives are better educated and have better income than conservatives (outside of the 1%).
SARAH PALIN: "There are going to be death panels!" RFK JR: "Technically, it's just me."
What if we established a tax-exempt Church of Democracy and sued the government for infringing on our religious freedoms when it does authoritarian stuff?
Hardware support for Linux is much better these days, though obviously it's always better to check compatibility before trying to install. It really depends on what you use the device for. After all, most people carry a Linux device with them every day. You might be reading this on one. 🙂
DC restaurants should stop serving food to elected Republicans in retaliation.
For all practical purposes we *are* the planet, because there's no one to call it a planet if we're not there. The concept of a planet is meaningless without an intelligent species to use it. The fact that life continues after a mass extinction is irrelevant to the species that disappeared.
If you decrease biodiversity and cause mass extinction, then that is bad for life on the planet. Since what we actually care about are humans, I think it's fine to use "the planet" as shorthand. After all, you can only have an "unperturbed" planet if humans aren't there to qualify it as such.
Streaming uses orders of magnitude less power than generative AI queries.
It's bad for the people living in the planet. It's bad for planetary ecosystems. It's bad for life, in other words.
Also: soulless. I'd rather look at an technically flawed but genuine drawing than an imitation by a machine. The novelty effect has worn out, now it just looks cheap.
This argument is an Absolute Cinema... 👀😅🤣 #cat #catday #bluesky #animals
First, they came for John Bolton And I did speak out Because even though I'm not a nutty right-wing warmonger with a ridiculous mustache, I am an American who is horrified by a simple-minded tyrant using our Justice Department to avenge his petty, personal grudges.

Thank you for this.
Oh yeah, those recruits are *totally* going to get respected by their peers.
Pritzker gets it.
To be fair, that would be state capitalism, not socialism. The workers are not in control of the means of production.
I would suggest taking a more measured approach, then, because it does feel like you're using too wide a paintbrush. Strategic alliances means you can support someone on a particular issue, but oppose them on another. That's just my opinion, though. Have a nice day.
Supporting his anti-Trump trolling doesn't mean you're part of a cult. The enemy of my enemy, etc.
People aren't saying to vote for him, they're supporting his standing up to Trump.
Looks like Vivec's cat.
Yes, an exaggeration. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree. Have a nice day.
It *is* an enemy of my enemy thing, totally. Strategic alliances. You can't help trans people if Trump becomes president-for-life. No one said to vote for Newsom. One can support him against Trump and still vote against him if he ever gets into the Primaries.
I'm not lying about anything. Why are you so hell-bent about starting a fight? Just agree to disagree and move on. Also, what was fundamentally wrong with my Weimar analogy?
I believe it is, and as someone who has followed politics for more than 40 years, I can tell you every little bit helps. Hence the value of strategic alliances. I did not agree with him platforming Kirk and others, but I also don't believe it indicated support for their positions from him.
A "bigot love fest" is an exaggeration. He shouldn't have platformed Kirk, but he didn't agree with him on a majority of issues. But again, you miss the point of what a strategic alliance is. As for my Weimar reference, it's not ignorant. It's satirical. So you not know the difference?
It's destabilizing Fox News pundits, for starters. Since the media won't say the emperor has no clothes, then it's up to prominent Dems to say it in a way that the media can't ignore.
I know they're not the same, but they have more in common than most people here would care to admit. They do disagree on some issues, clearly, but AFAIK Newsom hasn't spoken out against Mamdani nor endorsed Cuomo.
The fascists and bigots are Trump and his supporters. "No way I would ever vote for the Social Democrats!" said the Communist as the Nazi guards shoved him in the gas chamber.
Why? I agree with the quote from Newsom (assuming it's genuine) and I think I correctly I interpreted the response to it. I'm not sure what you're trying to do here. Do you have an issue with the argument I presented?
What previous comment?
No one's asking you to follow anyone. Right now Newsom is trolling Trump, and I support that. I can still disagree with him on other things. Hence the use of the word "strategic" in my previous comment.
Same here! Though I still have issues playing different intensities or rhythmic patterns with each hand (like a walking bass line with the left while keeping a simple chord beat with the right). I've been told this becomes easier with practice, but I need to find (and stick to) the right exercises.
Game on.
If you don't see the value of strategic alliances with people you don't agree with 100%, then you will always lose. Newsom is waging an effective PR offensive against Trump right now. As Trump is clearly the bigger threat, it makes sense for people to support Newsom *on this*, if not the rest.
I am not taking back my words. 👇
I think I have to set up Facebook Pages or something? I'll look into it a bit more later.
Testing cross posting to bsky and FB with zapier.
I love the new Cracker Barrel logo! 🧡 #EpsteinFiles

She's not involved in this in any way. This was confirmed by Gavin Newsom's office who contacted Jeff Tiedrich after he posted the info on his Substack.
Not very nice for Newsom or his current wife, so yeah, I'd say this goes a little too far with regards to the impact of the message. Also, TIL that his first wife was Kimberly Guilfoyle. WTF?!
Well, that didn't take too long LOL I encourage other people here who deal with this type of troll to do the same, i.e. try to bog them down into conversations (there's too many of us for these morons to keep up) then block them when they've spent time and energy to engage you.
lol you want to make it 500? Canadian dollars, not rubles. I understand. You're just an anonymous coward.
If not, just keep responding here, where it has no impact, instead of spreading your propaganda elsewhere. Morons like you always fall for that trick. And then when I block you you'll have spent all that time for nothing.
Come on, even a moron like you can't believe that bullshit. Economy tanking, popularity falling, his mind drifting away from reality... I'll bet you 100$ he doesn't end his mandate. Just create another account with you real ID instead of being an anonymous troll.
How low do you think his approval rating will fall to when he does, you ineffective moron? 😂
Oh, look, a moron trying to be relevant. Sad.
Fake photo.
See at end of Substack post where the author notes they were contacted by Newsom's office to correct the facts.
Also @nytimes.com I'm not sure if the bsky account above is legit or not...
Okay, that's a pretty useless share message, doesn't even have a link. @nytgames.bsky.social the new game is fun but this feels like a placeholder.

It was confirmed she has nothing to do with the tweets, and furthermore identifying her like this is very likely to cause MAGAs to start harassing her. Please don't repeat this false (and harmful) information, thanks!

And then ask to get nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Yeah, this was my reaction when I first saw it. She's going to get death threats, why out her?

Yeah, I'm starting to just ignore posts with obvious AI art. I'd rather see MS Paint collages of watermarked clip art at this point.
Also, check out this great series about Mohawk Ironworkers, which ran on APTN a few years ago.

Not sure if "washed" should apply here, given his legendary lack of personal hygiene.
So, Tim Burchett is a yellow-bellied coward who's afraid of his own shadow, then? We should only refer to him in these terms from now on.
Not forgiving you, Will. That's anecdotal evidence as best, and is worthless when it comes to evaluating overall crime in the city. This is why we have data and statistics experts to analyze it, not improductive parasites like you.
"Luxury, glamour, and entertainment"? How about "arts and culture", you pompous clown?

They're ok if you respect their boundaries, but quite aggressive when you don't. Kind of like Canadians, come to think of it.
