Those Hollywood execs work for giant conglomerates that own a whole host of media properties including television stations. If the CEO of UPS, one of the largest, if not THE largest, shipping companies in the world, called up Viacom, for example, and said that UPS is going to pull advertising from all Viacom owned entities if they don’t give into SAG-AFTRA and WGA demands, that would do enough damage to potentially end the strike. It would cost Viacom millions of dollars on top of what they’re already going to lose from the strike.

But UPS isn’t going to do that because if striking works for anybody, they might have to pay their workers more.

I think it means he wants sharks for hands. Like Street Sharks but like his actual hands.

This is the water and this is the well. Drink deep and decend. The horse is the white of the eyes and the dark within.

Except that the school denys that the girl was restrained, which you would know if you read the article. So a journalist can’t say “2-year-old was restrained” because there’s no proof that she was. The only source of that claim is the parents interview and none of that can be taken as fact. Hence, “Florida parents say…”

I wonder what happened around all the other historic times?

You could learn all about it at your local library!

You actually just proved their point by defining authoritarianism and calling it fascism. Fascist governments are authoritarian but that’s just one aspect of it.

What do you mean? Most of the county was taken by force. Taken from indigenous tribes or Mexico and originally from the British. Really Alaska is the weird one. We just bought that.
