I know this video will rub some the wrong way, but I largely agree with all of the central points made.
Particularly that blind/uncritical support for Disney, both vocally & financially, leaves us with continually diminished and vision from the company that essentially created the industry.

Survey also reveals Britons’ favourite festive film, views on tear-jerkers and family cinema trips
When Macaulay Culkin recently said he didn’t consider Die Hard to be a Christmas film – wading into one of pop culture’s most heated holiday debates – he was booed by a live audience.

Learned over Thanksgiving that my parents got hit with the Netflix password sharing. I was paying for the top tier version. Now they have the lowest tier by choice and after I finish stranger things, I’m cancelling. Only reason I’ve kept Netflix was because of my parents lol. Good job!

This parade couldn’t have been this obvious of a stream of advertisements when we were kids, right?
I feel like there was a better mix of entertainment to shilling, but idk if that’s just nostalgia fog. This feels egregious.

As always, immense respect to musicians playing in cold weather, especially pianists and stringed instruments. Y’all have no idea how painful it is to play busy parts on those instruments with very cold hands lol

It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.
Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

When I worked at my local video store and you came in on a Friday night looking for a Disney tape to rent, we were often out of most titles, but we did have a few "other" Disney tapes. Today on the Video Store Podcast I recommend those Other Disney Tapes.

Tech: Went to Disney Interactive to play test a mobile game. Liked the campus so much, I applied for an entry level position. 12 years in the Software QA field.
Music: Mom sang in the choir, always wanted me to pursue music since she never did. Played a bunch of instruments but Bass is what stuck!
