UPDATE: Paramount just successfully forced YouTube to block this Canadian video of the censored 60 Minutes CECOT segment on "copyright grounds."
Man, the lawyers must've been paid a lot to work overtime

Same. At least once a week I think about this. Especially on behalf of my friend who lost both parents in four days, and my friend whose son lost his dad before he could say goodbye.
sometimes it will just hit me that over a million americans died from covid in a short period of time and we never had a national mourning. we never collectively grieved. we never honored the dead. this feels like a failure

A quick note to all the NewSkys: there really isn’t algorithm here. We depend on each other to spread the word. So if you want others to see something, repost it. Liking something adds it to your feed but doesn’t surface it for others.

I wrote about UNION, the gripping and much-needed documentary about the Amazon Labor Union, and why it hasn't gotten a distribution deal (spoiler: Bezos has too much money/power). You can stream it on Gathr this weekend and you should! slate.com/culture/2024...
Amazon Doesn’t Want You to Stream This Gripping New Documentary. This Weekend, You Can.
Union won raves and an award at Sundance, but executives have been afraid to make it available. Now it is.

While Bluesky looks like other social apps on the surface, it’s actually quite different. It’s an open network.

Abolition Work Shows Us There’s Joy to Be Found Even as the World Is on Fire
