I genuinely don't know what to do while reading news about Palestine. Donations don't help if the food isn't getting through the blockade, the biggest powers of the Western world seem to be in support of or turning a blind eye, and I as a citizen halfway across the world feel absolutely helpless as I watch children willfully being bombed and starved to death.

You expect people to care about Wicked merchandise, misprint or not, in the future

This is such a Lemmy take. Ariana Grande is one of the biggest pop stars in entertainment, and Wicked is ONE OF THE BEST SELLING BROADWAY SHOWS EVER. Only behind the Lion King in total sales I think.

If a doll from Ariana's dinky little Nickelodeon tv show (don't come for me Victorious stans) is selling for this much, how much do you think her doll from Wicked is gonna sell for to the Broadway enthusiasts and Ariana stans?

Not everything is for you, but that doesn't make it irrelevant.

Joe Biden should see if squatters rights extend to the White House.

Considering that Vincke (or another person from Larian) has stated that everyone from WotC they worked with has now been laid off despite the huge success of BG3, I'm glad Larian are focusing on their own IP instead of bringing in money for WotC/Hasbro.

Everyone else has done the in-depth design analysis already, so I'm gonna say what's really on my mind:

They made him less fuckable. I would never put the new Captain Morgan logo on my "hall pass" list.

Cats was the last movie my friend and I saw in theatres before the pandemic hit. To this day she will insist the release of Cats ushered in lockdowns and the End Times™️.

I read this out to my roommate and commented, “Isn’t this funny? They completely forgot about sign language.”

They just stared at me.

The allegations from his sister aside (not discrediting them, I’m just not well informed on that atm), it’s been really strange seeing so many comments cheering for Sam Altman and dunking on the openAI board (handpicked by Altman himself btw) for this whole farce. We have no info on what’s happening inside, just 3rd party hearsay and speculation.

Not only that, the guy who allegedly led Altman’s ousting, Ilya Sutskever, signed the employee resignation letter asking to reinstate Altman as CEO.

OpenAI chief scientist Ilya Sutskever, who reportedly led the push to remove Altman, noted on X (formerly Twitter) that he had some regrets about the weekend of chaos inside OpenAI. “I deeply regret my participation in the board’s actions. I never intended to harm OpenAI,” said Sutskever. “I love everything we’ve built together and I will do everything I can to reunite the company.”

And somehow Microsoft ends up the biggest winner out of this entire situation. I don’t consider myself conspiracy minded…but what the hell is going on here?

I read this update posted last night on the r/iPhone discord, and have not seen this posted anywhere yet. Please feel free to direct this to the proper community if this is out of place.

I highlighted the relevant sentence, but it seems that the moderators are discussing how to proceed after the initial Reddit blackout behind the scenes, and having the communities being unmoderated is one of the potential options.

How do people feel about going back to an unmoderated Reddit?
