Uncle Iroh voice actor Greg Baldwin criticizes Paramount over the state of the 'Avatar: The Last Airbender' franchise

“Paramount doesn’t care about ATLA ... The new regime at Paramount is straight up evil"

"I can speak freely because I’m 65 years old and my pocketful of fucks is seriously depleted"

"Working as a paralegal at various studios in LA for thirty years…I had the opportunity to observe studio executives closely. They’re generally a slippery and clueless bunch who shouldn’t be allowed near anything remotely creative…but the new regime at Paramount is straight up evil"

"These soulless bastards have nothing but contempt for a show about grace and redemption and the struggle against fascism"

"ATLA is a mystery to them."

"They. Do. Not. Value. The. Franchise."

"Who should lose their jobs to AI? Answer… Studio Executives. Ironically…those cockroaches will be the last to go"

"In conclusion… Fuck you, Paramount"

Hackers are utterly incapable of hacking shit that would actually benefit people. Want them to hack the FAFSA to get rid of student loans?? Sorry their too busy hacking cartoon studios and threatening to release something people were already planning on watching

I looked this up and it’s being done for courts to recognise assisted reproduction, surrogacy, and same-sex couples during disputes

So the backlash is another example of how transphobia gets used to justify pushing more restrictive & conservative values across the board

My wife and I were talking last night about groceries.

I went back into my Walmart app and pulled up an order from January 2020.

30 items. $70.20.

I added every single one back to the cart today.

$165.42.
Same 30 items. Same store. Same cart.
$95 more, In six years.

They told us inflation was temporary. They told us it was under control. They told us the economy was recovering.

My grocery bill didn’t get the memo.

135% increase in six years and nobody in Washington has missed a single meal.

Republican anti-science culture wars are bringing back flesh-eating maggots, previously controlled childhood diseases, and carcinogens in drinking water.

Is America great again yet?

Incredible how every “pro-life” policy actually leads to a large amount of unnecessary death.

Republicans: Abortions are murder!

Also Republicans: Children dying from malnutrition, lack of vaccines and healthcare is perfectly acceptable as long as we can lower corporate tax rates by 1%.

@LarryBrundage @ScionYT @VigilantFox Also please show me your sources I am really curious to see where you get your information

[Gankaru @IsaacFeelman]

@LarryBrundage @ScionYT @VigilantFox I don’t have TDS, I simply have enough neurons in my skull to identify that since he’s been in office everything has gotten worse. I assume you think his budget cuts that are now inadvertently reintroducing Screw Worm flies into North America are also beneficial?

A flesh-eating parasite that was supposed to stay eradicated is now confirmed in Texas livestock, and you can thank the same administration that gutted the agencies built to stop it.

The New World screwworm, a parasitic fly whose larvae literally burrow through living flesh and can kill an animal if untreated, was officially detected in a three-week-old calf in Zavala County, Texas this week. This was not a surprise to anyone paying attention. The pest had been spreading northward through Central America and Mexico since at least 2022, and experts projected it would reach the U.S. by 2025.

What changed the math was the trump administration cutting roughly 15 percent of the USDA's entire workforce, around 15,000 people, including those responsible for monitoring and fighting exactly this kind of agricultural threat. The program that fights screwworms works by releasing millions of sterilized male flies to disrupt breeding, a slow, science-dependent, international cooperation kind of effort that requires, well, a functioning government.

Instead, DOGE took a chainsaw to the USDA so the wealthiest Americans could pocket a bigger tax cut, and now the cattle industry is staring down a potential $10.6 billion disaster.

And here is the part that hits everyone at the kitchen table: beef prices are already at a record high, with ground beef hitting $6.69 a pound in December 2025, up 72 percent since 2020. The screwworm border closures have already cut off over a million head of Mexican feeder cattle that American feedlots depend on, and the USDA is forecasting another 6.9 percent increase in wholesale beef prices in 2026. This is what happens when you gut the agencies designed to catch these problems early so billionaires can get a bigger tax cut.

The irony is almost too much: the ranchers and agricultural states that went hard for trump in 2024 are now the ones watching flesh-eating maggots show up in their herds. A #Texas state Republican rep had been sounding the alarm for over a year while, as he put it, "federal regulators moved at a snail's pace." That snail's pace had a price tag, and every American buying ground beef is paying it now.
