Nothing short of a death sentence for Live Nation (total dissolving of the company) and new rules that bar operation across state lines is sufficient. Truly evil people and they need to be curb-stomped. Kudos to @peterneronha.bsky.social for rejecting the deal.

This is a high risk / medium reward gamble that is virtually guaranteed to blow up in UNH's face at some point in the next ten years...if not the next ten months. They must be truly desperate if they're still pursuing this so aggressively.

I meant more that, statistically, due to bullying and discrimination, gay kids need a lot more therapy than straight kids do. In other words, Docter is very much punching down.

Jealous! About the drunk bit. I could use that about now.

I should admit I wasn't really talking about Inman (I never really got into British TV so I just don't know anything about him), and was just railing against Docter. But I confess myself a bit confused where you're going with this point?

Oh, I should give a little leeway to Turning Red. Never actually watched it, but it looked decent.

Still, WTF happened in 2011 where it all went to shit? The obvious answer was "LET'S MAKE ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL THE SEQUELS!!!"

I'm not going to lie, though. I used to REALLY look forward to Pixar movies until 2011, with Toy Story 2 and Cars 2. Utter trash. Brave & Coco were decent, and Inside Out was quite good, but everything else since 2011 - and that's 16 movies - has been garbage.

Let's also realize that Docter isn't just being a coward. He's actively being a real bigoted asshole by essentially saying "fuck those gay kids, even though they have an exponentially greater need for therapy."

Let's not pretend Nestlé Purina PetCare hasn't recently relaxed inspections and QC and they're not putting radioactive melamine or some shit in the cat food now because it saves them half a penny per can and that stock price ain't gonna raise itself.

If you're of a TL:DR mood, apparently a lot of Texas' oil and gas flows through Corpus Christi, so a water crisis there means severe restrictions on, among other things, gasoline at pumps across the entire state.

a man and a woman are looking at each other Alt: Keri Russell as "Felicity".

That's why she cut her hair, you know.

Unfortunately, that's thirsty work.

Perhaps, but nobody gives a shit about Corpus Christi. At all. It's a terrible place with terrible people.

America points and laughs, says "fuck those idiots."

@dicknixon.bsky.social Jesus Christ, sir.

Oh i know, I just thought forgetting that asshole was the proper response.

Who?

Now it's your turn to deal with the consequences of your achievement. And one day, when they've punished you enough, they'll serve *you* salmon and potato salad. Make speeches, give you a metal. Pat you on the back, tell you all is forgiven. Just remember, it won't be for you… It'll be for them.

Dear God

How blizzards and snow removal become political in an election year Snowstorms have a way of testing politicians. But critics have found little to fault with Gov. Dan McKee's response.

@antoniafarzan.bsky.social If you didn't see it, East Prov rolled out a crowdsourced "is your street plowed?" website a day or so into the cleanup. Coded originally for Fall River. eastprovplowed.cc

It ended up being not very accurate, but it made people feel a lot better.

I suppose the most obvious takeaway is that most likely Talarico will get crushed in the general because his primary win is far weaker than we thought. And that Crockett would've been crushed, too, because she's an idiot.

This puts an entirely different spin on how close the election was, though. Hell, it's so different I can't even begin to really understand it yet. It's like both of them were trying to run a marathon with several broken bones below the waist, but each was DIFFERENT broken bonus.

Whilst sitting on the toilet, of course.

Also, how TF does this comply with HIPAA? It CAN'T. Not with any of the LLM's track records... 🤔

Because CVS has such a wonderful track record of AI on their call-in pharmacy refill system that SUCKS ALL THE POSSIBLE ASS IN THE WORLD.

There's few things in life more emotionally uplifting than seeing a man drowning in an existential crisis, being told something that just shatters that entire worldview and overwhelms it with hope. Hope that the man himself was creating and didn't even realize it.

This is why I'm fucking terrified that Trump's gonna launch the nukes. Or at least he's going to be screaming at everyone to do it. God only knows if anyone will stand up to him.

Stanley Motss on line three, sir. He sounds a little frazzled.
