No, you’ve gone too far in the other direction now. The protests can work. Your other comments show that you seem to think it has to be all or nothing, but Just because it’s not bankrupting Bezos in one fell swoop, doesn’t mean it’s pointless. If we even make a dent in their metrics, they’ll notice.

My issue here is that everyone seems to be misinterpreting me as whining about not wanting to participate because I’m gonna miss my show. When what I actually said, in effect, was “Damn, I’m gonna miss my show. Oh well.”

The fuck is wrong with the threadiverse today, gods damn!

No, you come on. You’re are misrepresenting what I actually said. If you actually read my post, you’ll see that I plan to participate in the boycott regardless. I made a throwaway comment about how it would be “mildly inconvenient” that I’d miss the opening, but also that I would do it regardless.

So what, I’m not even allowed to acknowledge that Prime has stuff I’m interested in? I have to boycott it, and deny that it holds any value whatsoever?

That’s bullshit. It’s entirely possible to both acknowledge that there are decent Amazon produced shows AND think that the company is evil as fuck and want to boycott them.

Oh please, that’s not even close to what I said. I just don’t want them to cancel a show I like and you’re all acting like I’m swinging from Bezos’ dick. You’re all rabid.

The thing is, I really don’t want them to cancel it. I’ve been signing up for it and then cancelling my subscription when it’s finished, and then pirating it anyway. I just want them to see it as valuable, so they don’t try to squeeze 14 books worth of content into one shitty finale because it’s not making them money.

Lol, this is the first one that I’m mildly inconvenienced by participating in. Wheel of Time S3 comes out somewhere in there doesn’t it?

I can wait.

Huh. My device seems to have been skipped? I don’t do anything special, I’m using Play Store and Play Services, and I’m up to date, but it’s not showing up in my settings app list

If you’re serious then here you go

Take a look at the skills shortages list as well, because if you can get a job in something on that list, you’ll have a much easier time. We desperately need Healthcare workers

You will be welcome here for the most part, but I have started noticing some things that are starting to annoy me, and I know I’m not alone, so fair warning:

Please remember why you’re coming here. Nothing annoys me more than Americans who move here and then never shut up about how things were better back home. We have no 2a, our stores are small, and we don’t tip. I consider those to be GOOD things. Also, even our right wing party (National) would be considered center left over there. (Sadly that seems to be changing)

If you’re just looking for what America was 15 years ago, Australia is what you’re looking for. That’s not a joke either, I mean that very seriously, Australia is a better fit. It’s the USA of the southern hemisphere (sorry Aussies, but tell me I’m wrong)

It’s a process, but it can be done! Good luck!
