Hey, did you guys all get the invitation to see the inside of a people powered Disney world heating system?

I heard that it was just a big box with steam tubes running on the top. You just need to people to power it. They call it the Great Accessible Steam Chamber!

Can’t wait to see you all there with me powering the world!

I’ve seen some behind the scenes numbers for a different streaming service when “people are canceling in droves”. For every article I saw, I never once saw a significant number of cancellations.

So, I would take these articles with a grain of salt

I love this for Disney!

I was never a subscriber, and barely care about any of their products, anyway. If I never see another Disney-produced show again, I’ll be just fine.

Fuck 'em.

Never much liked Jimmy Kimmel but he earned some brownie points here haha. Not sure any of this counts for a lot, the “droves” number seems to a few twitter accounts that said they cancelled and one that said the website was slow when they tried to do it.

If I was a subscriber, I’d quit. But I’m a pirate instead. Fuck all of ‘em.

Next step: “It is un-American not to have Disney+ in your household. Only members of Antifa or trans people don’t have Disney+. It will be mandatory for every patriotic God loving US citizen to have Disney+ in their home and on at least three hours per week. Anyone found not to be watching the party approved level of Disney programming will be taxed $21.99 per month and the proceeds put into a new ‘Mickey Patriot Fund’.”

Be aware: Newsweek has a history of posting stories that placate and reassure the non-MAGA crowd. I don’t 100% trust their intentions as an organization. Kamala Harris was definitely going to win according to Newsweek, the week before the election.

I didn’t have a Disney channel to unsubscribe from so I cancelled my Apple subscription.

A bigger deal to them is the theme parks and cruises.

Not only are those big money makers, they’re also easier for news crews to see and report on.

I wrote to them and told them that ABC has been my news supplier for decades, but now I’ll be switching to NBC. I’ll also be cancelling my HULU sub.

As for their broadcast content, I told them that I will either pirate it, or watch it in TIVO, and skip the ads. That’s what really hurts them.

All media companies do not serve entertainment as their core business. They are literally nothing more than advertising platforms. That’s where 100% of their revenues comes from. The entertainment is just bait, to make us sit on our couch, and hopefully be too lazy too move our fat asses when the ads come on.

So threatening to consume their expensive bait without consuming their revenue-producing ads, really hurts.

I’ve already started my journey to replace all streaming services with jellyfin anyway so i will be cancelling mine too.

This jimmy kimmel business just sweetens the deal.

got an old raspberry pi set up as a jump box with a tailscale vpn so i can remotely power up my pc from anywhere and watch anything i have downloaded. Just need to get a dedicated server and storage, either nas or internal in a larger tower. But for now its working really well.

The suspension of the show has been met with condemnation and praise from both sides of the political spectrum.

Who on the left is praising it? Is this deliberate bullshit by Newsweek, or just careless copyediting?

We cancelled ours.

I don’t even like Jimmy Kimmel, but I cancelled too. Don’t fuck with the 1st amendment.
