THIS IS THE RIGHT KIND OF CANCEL CULTURE.
So Disney is offering massive discounts for 6 months if you try to cancel your subscription. For those who weren’t cancelling bc their young kids, it’s worth at least trying to cancel and take the discount they offer to keep you. Then cancel before the promotion period ends.
They are also spending a fortune on ads to get people back. The boycott is working. Soooo many people are fighting back.

1. Got out for a walk

It is important to find a good place to hide from the rain.

I’ll say the elephant in the room - due to the sheer amount of Salesforce customers who have been hit, and that Salesforce is a fully SaaS service - Salesforce should have detected and been more proactive about all of their customer’s data being stolen. https://databreaches.net/2025/09/11/exclusive-high-end-fashion-retailers-gucci-balenciaga-brion-and-alexander-mcqueen-hit-by-salesforce-attacks/

I like to think that the shooter in the crowd wasn't even planning anything, but then saw Kirk standing there talking about how gun violence isn't a big deal and how gun deaths are an acceptable price to pay for upholding the second amendment, and thought "ok I have the opportunity to do the funniest thing right now"
