Arrow has been cancelled for a couple years now I think? They killed him off in the last DC crossover. They still got Flash and Supergirl maybe? That Legends of Tomorrow show?

If WB is selling CW, they're probably going to lose any DC properties though.

I’ve had people ask me what happened on multiple occasions and I’m like “…huh?” and they say “you have two black eyes did you get in a fight last night or something?” and I’m like “oh lol, nah I just have bags constantly” and then they go on to insist that no I should really go look in a mirror I have black eyes :jerkbag:

I used to only get them if I was very tired or very sick even as a kid, but it’s one of those things that became semi-permanent, or at least more obvious, once I hit 30. :corsair:

Family acquaintance (very hesitant to call her a friend) got fired from her nursing job this week. Huge maga chud, super hypocrite Christian, anti covid vax. Hospital implemented vaccine requirements and she tried to get a religious exemption, except the hospital had her records and could see all the other vaccines she's had no problem getting. Fuckin idiot lmao.

The hospital my wife works at said there would be a mandate with allowance for religious exception, then let it sit for a month without saying which religious exceptions would be accepted as valid. Naturally most of the people who submitted for it were outspoken about "their beliefs", and it generated a bunch of strife because dumbasses felt the need to be vocal about their dumbassery.

In the end the hospital administration sent an email acknowledging the loving hypocrisy of people who have other vaccines but won't take this one, but never actually enforced anything. My wife doesn't know of anyone who submitted for religious exception who didn't get it.

Until I got my seasonal allergies under control, I would have 2-3 months every year where people thought I was high all the time. My eyes would be super bloodshot, and I'd be drowsy from benadryl.

I still don’t understand what religious objection could be made here but then again the invocation of ‘my beliefs’ never requires any documentation.

If they were something like a JW or a Christian Scientist that are very anti medicine ok sure it is dumb but that is your cult of choice.

The CW doesn't have many O&Os anymore, so affiliates could drop it. The only physical presence owned by the net are

Atlanta, Georgia WUPA 69 (2.1% US HH)
Detroit, Michigan WKBD-TV 50 (1.6% US HH)
Jeannette - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania WPCW 19 (1.0% US HH)
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania WPSG 57 (2.5% US HH)
Sacramento - Stockton - Modesto, California KMAX-TV 31 (1.2% US HH)
San Francisco - Oakland - San Jose, California KBCW 44 (2.2% US HH)
Seattle - Tacoma, Washington KSTW 11 (1.5% US HH)
Tampa - St. Petersburg - Sarasota, Florida WTOG 44 (1.6% US HH)

So a reach of 13% of US households.

Those stations are probably worth more as midband 5G-- set up a minimal ATSC lighthouse and lease off the rest of the spectrum.

Also another one of the RTs my wife works with put in her notice. The last time my wife worked with her, the other lady was considering early retirement because of the physical and mental toll. Seemed like the type of thing she was floating out there to get validation she was doing the right thing, which my wife definitely gave.

She has been working as an RT at that hospital since it opened, and their manager's response was an email back saying "thank you for letting me know. I will tell HR your resignation date". I don't care how stressed you are as a manager, that is worse than my boss saying "no concerns" when I told him I was going to miss multiple days for having two animals put down in the same week.

also, the rumored new owners own a lot of stations, including the nyc and la affiliates (and the former chicago affiliate)

One of the many shitheads who send their emails to me instead of their similar email address accidentally forwarded her exemption request to me. Her exemption was based on being "created in God's perfect image and as such does not believe in modifying that image or design, and anything that changes functionality is against God's plan."

Her email contains in her signature a photo of her. She's wearing glasses.

We have these stupid awards at work people across the company can nominate each other for if they think someone went above and beyond on something, and you can use them to exchange for stuff I think? But I keep getting nominated for it from HR people that keep asking me to do poo poo absolute last second which is basically just doing my job at this point.

Anyway, one of my coworkers hasn’t gotten one yet and he’s super swamped all day every day and generally kicking rear end. I needed his help for something that someone nominated me for another award on today, so I told her she should give it to him instead and she did, now he’s all happy :3:

I think you just proved my point. Your company can afford to pay these union workers apparently insane amounts of money, and you get a piece of paper with an empty compliment on it instead of a larger paycheck.
