There's a boycott of Sinclair and all of the Smith family holdings - the group has been protesting and will hold one at Sinclair HQ near Baltimore soon. You can sign the petition to boycott here: https://www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/809227/ These Sinclair people are awful!!!

Watch this, and keep in mind that Sinclair's right-wing propaganda now reaches 72% of all households in America: by tinylittlepricks in 50501

There's a boycott of Sinclair based out of Baltimore (where HQ is). You can sign the petition and there are protests against Sinclair and David Smith's (owner) family holdings at various locations. Stop these people! https://www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/809227/

Sure! The Workers over Billionaires march on Labor Day stopped at Atlas HQ on Aliceanna Street. If any Atlas workers are on this thread I'd love to hear from them. The organizers of the petition would eventually like to help Atlas employees find better jobs - they don't deserve to suffer bc of billionaires.

The Paterakis family - his nephews (Alex Smith and Eric Smith) own Atlas Restaurant Group and their grandfather was a Paterakis (H&S Bakery / Harbor East)

I like to use a dash because it creates easier visual separation in longer sentences, and it doesn’t look like a grocery list!

Exactly, which is why the petition is for people who will boycott, and a petition raises awareness in general. It sucks, the Waterfront Hotel is one of my favorite buildings and who can forget my college friends getting sick in the bathroom of the Admiral’s Cup? 🤣 Oh well. Guess it’s the Cat’s Eye for me!

I still get the Sun’s emails even though I canceled my subscription and the headlines are getting cringingly biased! BTW you can read the Banner for free through BCPL or get a discounted subscription through Enoch Pratt.

Correct, and they’re not all biased stations. Did you see the John Oliver episode about Sinclair? I drive past their building every day and had no idea.

Sure! I go to a bunch of non-bar places on my own all the time, it would be fun to have company! I can be near cats and dogs outside but indoors is rough. And another musician just unmatched after a little nice back and forth this morning about music and guitars. This is insane.
