You know, I'm the first one to say that we should support ethical businesses and boycott unethical ones, but have we really considered how many people will become unemployed if we force the orphan grinding plant to shut down?

The same dumb assholes who brought us "Somehow, Palpatine has returned" said no to this.

If I were the CEO of Disney, and Adam Driver, Steven Soderbergh and Scott Z. Burns came to be with a scripted Star Wars movie titled The Hunt for Ben Solo, I’d green light that movie in a heartbeat.

Alright, I'm doing #bandcampwrapped, all by myself (hint hint @bandcamp.com) First up, some quick maffs: in 2024, I have added 56 items to my wishlist, comprising 53 artists. Of those, I've purchased 24 (so far) for a total of $227.75, which comes out to about 19 bucks/month. 🧵1/5

And here is a word cloud of their given locations (I only started gathering this in April, so it's not quite compete. But still interesting!) Somehow I'm from the NY/NJ area and those artists just seem to find me. Something in the fresh, clear Adirondack water most likely 4/5

Now, that's more than it'd cost to just have e.g. $potify, but oh wait like 80+% of this went straight to the artist. That $180 is worth about 40,000 (!) streams. I'd have to listen to music 8 hrs every single day for the whole year to hit that.. and that's at 4 minutes per song! 2/5

You are up to date.
