It’s hard to boycott when the whole damn world is the company store.
I’ve been thinking about what an appropriate response would be to the presidential insult, "Quiet, Piggy."

Would it be:

"Your, mama!"
"Fuq u, fat man!"
Ye olde, "Up your nose with a rubber hose."

But perhaps my favorite line from the show “Severance:”

"Devour feculence!"

Me: You mean the version that has a lot of AI features that I didn't ask for and have no intention of using? Nah, I'm good.

Whew! It sounds like Gen Z is entering the, “We got food at home” phase of adulthood.

Welcome!

And maybe companies will realize their earnings are tied to the earnings of their customers.

If we ain’t got it, they can’t get it.

So, About the Riyadh Comedy Festival

If you're disappointed about some of your favorite comedians who went over to Saudi Arabia to perform in the Riyadh Comedy Festival, I get it. But look at it this way: They made a choice. And so can you.

Fandom isn't fixed my friends.
