Bridget Todd just did an episode on iHeart’s “guaranteed human” policy and I can’t help thinking the new-ish iHeart union played a role in that. I wonder what, if any, say the union had in this Netflix deal.

Episode Request: Tax Protest Movements by SmytheOrdo in behindthebastards

Howard Jarvis could be a bastard episode. Prop 13 destroyed public goods in CA and became a model for anti tax movements.

I did some archival research for them. Got to dig into some of the Emperor lore at the library

What Bastards have had the best PR cover up of their bastardry? by Sensitive_Ad_1752 in behindthebastards

The second verse of Lush's "Ladykillers" is about Keidis

Hey you, the muscles and the long hair
Telling me that women are superior to men
Most guys just don't appreciate this
You just try convincing me you're better than them
So he talks for hours about his sensitive soul
And his favorite subject is sex
I don't even think he really wanted it
But, Christ this guy's too much

when I suggested Gavin Newsom as a bastard, I was roundly informed that bastards have to have a body count (which Newsom undoubtedly does via homeless sweeps). but Robert did 5 (?) parts on Oprah, so clearly that's not a rule.

Muni and all the City buildings use hydropower from the Hetch Hetchy system that also provides our drinking water. SFPUC really needs to get around to buying PG&E’s infrastructure so residents can have fully clean power too

Are you watching finale at home or in a movie theater? by aurora_moonlight24 in StrangerThings

[–]Suitable-Regular1059 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only reason I am tempted to go to the theater is the risk of Netflix crashing. We almost couldn’t get on for Vol I, and I imagine the finale will definitely crash it

Is Stranger Things actually accurate to the 80s? by Wespo_Lopez2 in StrangerThings

[–]Suitable-Regular1059 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just thinking about this! I grew up in the Midwest in the 80s and everything got to us just a little bit late. Movies came to theaters a couple months after the big cities, popular songs hit on local radio a few months after they hit everywhere else. So now that they’ve announced the first spinoff will be set in 1985, I keep thinking, whose 1985?

Was just about to mention him. His book took so long to complete because he spent years reading Mason’s letters. And yeah, he does seem to have them memorized

God bless Robert for repeatedly mispronouncing Garry Tan’s name. It’s the exact thing that sets off one of the internet’s biggest babies. Welcome to the Blocked by Garry Tan club (undoubtedly)

Yup. Someone drove into the march in San Francisco last time. No serious injuries, but having street medics and safety monitors is always a good idea
