  1. Fuck YTTV and Mouse for resolving this shit before yesterday!
  2. A YTTV cheaper option with all the sports and without supporting all the BS toxic corporate news channels I don’t want anyway?? Go on…
  3. According to this article, Disney wants access to YTTV proprietary data analytics as well as make even base subscribers pay for ESPN Unlimited. I am OK with alphabet holding firm. https://cordcuttersnews.com/youtube-tv-and-disney-negotiations-went-late-into-the-night-last-night-a-new-issue-is-now-the-main-focus/?amp=1
  4. A few months ago they sent me an email offering $30 off a month for like 6 months without any conditions on my part and I said sure. Then my bill went down to $49 and next month they are giving me extra $20 credit. So if I am paying $29/month I am sticking around for awhile.
  5. Well yea Disney has the leverage now and Google is gonna have to cave on this fight. What I am saying is medium/long term, Google may decide to bite back if Disney pushes something unreasonable. 2030, 2033, 2034 is not that far away and they could make things difficult for ESPN/Disney if Google decides to throw their weight around. Disney is getting into the streaming business to compete against YTTV, however YTTV could also get in the sports broadcasting business to compete against Disney. Obviously not gonna work short term, but on a medium term, Disney could find themselves fucked if they try to push too hard.
  6. I can tell you that those of us in medicine can universally attest that people will shove just about anything in their ass.
  7. Well Disney better be careful or else Google is gonna just start/buy up some sports channel and get in the sports broadcasting business themselves. They have the $$ to do it and are not just gonna sit idly by and let their enterprise go bankrupt. Also I read least night that ESPN is not even the issue. Apparently they have come to agreement on that. The issue is ABC with Disney wanting some big premium for that which seems crazy to me.
  8. I mean this is my bill for last month and this is before the upcoming $20 credit. If they want to charge me $30 then I am staying..
  9. If they reduce the price than I probably will stay, but only cause I already get ESPN/Disney/Hulu for free via a legacy Verizon plan. Honestly my health has improved by not being able to watch Texas Football live and just watching highlights later.
  10. So I assume all these dispensaries are fucked?
  11. Cherry picked?? wow.gif
  12. I've seen this movie before. It The Grinch Who Stole Christmas story. We just don't get to see the sequel where the Grinch turns into an asshole again by New Years.
  13. I heard Sen. Shaheen explaining on the radio why she voted yes. She explained that the Pubs "told us they wouldn't do anything more and this was the best we could get!". Oh gosh, they told you that?? We shit then it all makes sense!!
  14. Correct. I just clicked the link from the email, which took me to a login screen for my account, then after login it said "credit applied" . Nothing else to do
  15. It is a 1 click process to get the credit. Just did it.
  16. What a fuckin joke if true. Yea I am sure the pubs are gonna fully respect you and negotiate on the next issue in good faith after you cave for basically nothing. How can you possibly negotiate this poorly when the public is blaming the other side more than you and you are currently “winning”? I feel like I am taking crazy pills.
  17. Exactly. You wanna know how “illegalls” and “dirty poors” are getting subsidized healthcare? They are coming into the Ben Taub/Parkland ERs for a 10k workup for their cold/flu once their symptoms get so bad cause they don’t have a $30 primary care option. Until Trump/Abbott tell docs to throw dying people on the streets, each and everyone of us will pay for uninsured people’s healthcare, just in the stupidist and most expensive way possible.
  18. Get rid of “money sucking insurance companies”?? No more middle man in healthcare?? Dems should draft the “Trump Medicare For ALL” bill tonight!
  19. Not just the shutdown. This has been their strategy for decades…on everything. Cruelty and hurting others has been the point of the GOP my entire life. Dems try to minimize the pain and decrease the suffering and people just support more and more cruelty. There is no growth or change without pain, and this country desperately needs to change. So fuck it, I’m done. I will help my family and close friends. Everyone else is on their own till the national fever breaks.
  20. Is that tiny scar thr end result of his high caliber gunshot wound? I am pretty sure my kids bb gun would do more damage than that.
  21. Yea the old “I have nothing to offer but I want everything you have!” negotiation tactic is a classic.
  22. Good basic summary. I would also add that Trump has repeatedly unilaterally overwritten Congressional passed laws (tariffs, selectively defunding departments he doesn't like, etc) and the pubs in congress have done absolutely nothing to oppose it to the point that even if they "make a deal" there is ample reason to believe it will just be overwritten the second the government reopens. Basically there is absolutely no reason for the dems to in any way help pass anything at this point. This is what happens when you elect not serious performative people to manage serious things. chaos.
  23. Sure, but can we just ensure Trump is never allow to get any?
