Oh now they’re disappointed. Money is a hell of a drug. https://www.thedailybeast.com/former-fox-execs-lament-helping-murdoch-create-disinformation-machine
This is a doozy of a story. For the tl;dr crowd:
*Dan Snyder setup (or leaked) stories of Jon Gruden racist remarks.
*Roger Goodell and the NFL protected Snyder and wanted Gruden gone.
*ROC Nation (Jay-Z’s agency) got involved and put it in motion.
*Snyder couldn’t keeps his hands off the cookie jar and likely be gone next week.
It’s a hellhole. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/37965420/the-secret-history-dan-snyder-demise-washington-commanders-owner #cososports #NFL

All I can think of with the "Threads" feeding frenzy and millions downloading the app...
1) You remember this is Facebook? Their apps gather ALL THE DATA. And sell it.
2) Maybe people DO have the memory of a goldfish? The "no, we're META now, forget all those bad things the other name did" worked?
3) Their interest in the "Fediverse" has nothing to do with interaction, only assimilation. Those who think it'll make a "bigger decentralized system" are naive and gullible. It's FACEBOOK!

#FLASHLOL - Meta's new Twitter alternative won't be available in Europe because Zuck can't commit to EU privacy laws.

I'm really just sitting here stunned by how many Twitter users are flocking to a site run by a man whom they would excoriate on the regular.
I find it funny when TikTok creators were upset the government were going to ban the site and not Facebook/Meta who sold data. Then, a few months later, some (or most) of the same people are jumping to Threads created by the same guy you wanted gone but doing to pwned another douche. I mean…

Apparently 30% of Americans think the Supreme Court was appointed by Democratic Presidents. We’re so screwed. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/07/05/americans-polling-supreme-court/
I see it’s from Zuck. No thanks.
I see a lot of people on Threads. Is it any good?
51% of Vietnamese voters in the US lean GOP. Not surprised by it as it’s older voters and still remember the Vietnam War. Other Asian-American populations lean Democratic. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2023/07/03/vietnamese-republican-democrat-politics-vote/
Cross one thing off my bucket list last night: winning a 5-digit jackpot.
Happy Birthday, America. Go for the fireworks and food, stay for mocking stereotypes
So Twitter is on sticks and stones. Man, what a mess they are.
With all the Supreme Court rulings the past 2 days, there is one key takeaway: VOTE! National, State, County, School Board, Sheriff, Judge, Court Jester. Elections matter, especially local elections if you want student loans, inclusivity, right of privacy back.
Remember I said the Supreme Court voted for fair voting laws because in turn, they will stab us on student loan forgiveness and others? Well, they did that with striking down affirmative action and sided with online harassers and stalkers
