Raising an eyebrow at Hollywood's unions complaining about how Netflix buying Warner Bros will shrink the film market, deflate wages, ruin everything, etc.
As if Paramount (the expected frontrunner in the bidding) wouldn't have also done much of the same, just without as many theater closures.

Happy thirty-third birthday to the game that literally changed my life.
I looked into learning Japanese because of this game.
I have helped raise over $200,000 for charities with this game.
Thanks, Final Fantasy 5. You're so cool.

...and if you wonder why I keep calling it "unintelligent artifice"...
"Runctitiononal features"? "Medical fymblal"? "1 Tol Line storee"? This gets worse the longer you look at it. But it's got to be good, because it was published in Nature Scientific Reports last week: www.nature.com/articles/s41... h/t @asa.tsbalans.se

...and if you wonder why I keep calling it "unintelligent artifice"...
First, anyone who uses unintelligent artifice was never my "client" to begin with.
Second, there's so many marketing cons that historically went with this strategy. "Success can't happen without our help" and such.
Third, this is extremely insulting to wolves. On their behalf, I demand an apology.
