Sports was one of America's most accessible forms of entertainment. Now it's paywalled, splintered and sold to the highest bidder.
Fandom isn't being nurtured. It's being mined.

Here’s a somewhat brutal tip that I hope I remember - if you’re old and worried about your days being numbered, behave in a way that will make people sad to see you go

Killing all gaming media on the eve of a big console launch and a few months before what will likely be the biggest video game of all time is smart and well thought-out business from people that definitely do not spend all day eating their own shit.

One thing I've found to be something of a constant through all this is that a lot of sales teams are anchored by people with ancient ideas and calcified skill sets who simply can not fathom how to monetize, say, a podcast. Either that or the sales team bailed any everyone says "uh... YouTube money?"

I was thinking about this Joe and Tracy anecdote from the supply chain crisis on gummy bears. Things are probably going to get really weird in a few weeks in unexpected ways:

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:
“It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

Having to remind sellers to not use Uline is a mark of time passing for me. This company has always supported right wing shit, never stop reminding people not to use them. There’s always new sellers who haven’t heard. Sharing how you make and sell is how we keep doing
