Donโ€™t Stream Fascism: Cancel Spotify

Spotify is now running ICE recruitment ads. We asked them to stop. They ignored us. Let's show them what we showed Disney. No Kings, No Collaborators, No Capitulators. indivisible.org/cancel-spotify

โ€œNobody in this world is worth more than you, but nobodyโ€™s worth less.โ€ Wise words to live by.

The wife was looking for a scary movie today, so I suggested Sinister. It had been years since Iโ€™d seen it, and we thoroughly enjoyed escaping into a good movie. Times are bleak, but at least Bughuul isnโ€™t real. (*Checks closet one more time to be sure.)

A tweet from Rebecca Ballhaus says: โ€œNEWS: Trump has pardoned Changpeng Zhao, the convicted founder of the crypto exchange Binance, following months of efforts by Zhao to boost the Trump familyโ€™s own crypto company.โ€ The attached image shows Zhao in a dark setting, with the caption: โ€œExclusive | Trump Pardons Convicted Binance Founder.โ€

Zhaoโ€™s company Binance secured $2 billion in backing using the crypto coin issued by Trumpโ€™s World Liberty Financial. Corruption on a scale never before seen.

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid" We checked. Sorry, JD Vance.

NEW @motherjones.com: Nobody in that GOP group chat praising Hitler or making racist comments was a โ€œkid,โ€ as JD Vance claimed today

I tracked down their ages. (Weirdly, it seems nobody else did.)

Eight of the 11 in the group chat range from 24 to 35. Ages of others are unclear.

Butโ€ฆ no โ€œkidsโ€!

By far, this was the scariest costume I saw at Spirit Halloween today. (Itโ€™s real, not photoshopped)

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

CHATGPT: I understand where you're coming from. You worked really hard to get here, and now it's time to enjoy the fruit of your labors.

Two of our four players immediately ordered a copy, so I think this game has a good chance to go viral (IE: spread like a beautiful disease).
