Canada@lemmy.ca•Major and Straight-Line Decline in Conservative Advantage over Past Month
3·11 months agoIt did until Harris’ campaign managers told her that calling Republicans “weird” might hurt some of their older donors’ feelings, so she basically stopped going on the offensive at all. They were on a roll, then decided to “play it safe” and lost the interest of people who are tired of the party being for nothing but corporate interests.
Give people a reason to stay invested.

10·2 years agoNow now, the cops were doing something: they tried to break up the Ottawa people at Billing’s Bridge who were preventing more trucks from getting downtown.
The cops weren’t sitting on their asses, they were complicit.

Star Trek Social Club@startrek.website•TrekMovie.com: Patrick Stewart Reveals New Star Trek Movie Script Featuring Jean-Luc Picard Is In The WorksEnglish
4·2 years agoSeason 3 worked because of the ensemble cast, though. The first two where it was “Picard and Friends” felt weird, and not like what anyone really wanted, and if this is another “Just Picard” thing it’s likely to end up the same.

8·2 years agoYeah. Getting out of physical media now, as every streaming service is hitting peak enshittification, is such a wild choice for Best Buy to be making, it has to have been handed to them by people trying to keep people on streaming. Now is the time to be making a killing in physical media.

Canada@lemmy.ca•Canadians will soon see commercials on Amazon Prime Video
5·2 years agoYeah, I’ve been catching up on Doctor Who and the ads at the beginning of episodes were skippable last week, but today they’re not, and the ads they’re talking about in this article don’t even start until the end of January, so it’s likely to just get worse.
I won’t know though, cancelled my account this evening.
