“Jesus, we told them we weren’t going to meet any of their demands, what MORE do they want???”

Every successful dictator knows that their underlings can’t be too competent, or eventually they’ll try to seize power for themselves. I’m kind of surprised Prigozhin lived long enough to attempt a coup when he was openly attacking the military for their poor performance in combat. When someone starts saying their…

I imagine there’s not much point in hiring professional negotiators if they have no authority to make concessions beyond what you’ve already offered. 

Dammit! I had “hotel room balcony fall” in the pool. Too obvious I guess.

Sarandos too. Like, the loopholes these guys find are why everyone in the industry except execs are getting paid less than they were 10 years ago, you’re not going to reason with them. Their goal is to one day have a company with only middlemen, jacking each other off and giving notes.

“Defenestration” is indeed an excellent word, exceeded only by “transfenestration,” which is when you don’t bother opening the window before performing the defenstration.

This is actually good news because his group was actually more effective than the Russian military. So now Putin killed one of the few people who seemed to know what they were doing. So good. Fuck him and Fuck Putin.

Another political enemy of Vlad managed to get dead under suspicious circumstances?

Why are the studio heads the ones in the room making offers? They should be sending their best professional negotiators, not the morons who got into this mess in the first place. There is absolutely no “good faith negotiation” that involves the physical presence of David Zaslav.

After everything, Britney Spears is reportedly considering reconciling with her dad, Jamie Spears. You know, the one who put her in a conservatorship in the first place. Whatever our queen wants, I will support her, I guess. [TMZ]

The previous Pope was in charge of the modern version of the inquisition, responsible for attempting to silence abuse victims. I’m sure it’s pure coincidence that he got voted into the top job. Nothing to do with him knowing where all the skeletons were buried.

Then I get to read in their little newsletters how selfish this generation is for not signing up to be clergy members.

Yup. It’s the “me” generation and its offspring being selfish, not the rampant corruption, sexual abuse and draconian laws requiring priests to be unmarried men.

Meanwhile, the Catholic Church continues to declare bankruptcy in its dioceses so that it can avoid paying abuse victims who win a lawsuit. The Archdiocese of San Francisco filed yesterday.

If a nun really wants to help kids they should be blocking the entrance to their predator religion. Mind your own fucking house it’s on fire.

That’s exactly the thing they want. They live their lives in fear and want us to do the same.

I’ve yet to see a legitimate reason for why LGBTQ+ people deserve this, or bring this on themselves, or anything else that people claim that we do.
