You delivered some good points. I also work with publishers.

Ad blockers have had an impact, but I think the bigger driver is that premium demand has migrated spending to connected TV (CTV, showing ads on an Internet connected large screen). Publishers just don’t get the rates they used to for web and mobile inventory, even if they’re doing everything right.

I think when another trendy channel like AI ads straight to your brain or whatever pops up we will see another migration.

I tipped $20. I haven’t drank alcohol for three days and smoked half as much as normal. Saved $20 minimum and thought I’d pass it on to a good cause.

Didn’t notice the option and just tipped! Thanks for your post.

85% of the funding was provided by the European Union. It was one of Croatia’s main stipulations for joining the EU.

A Chinese state owned company did win the contract to build the bridge.

Great read. There’s 70+ million people out there choosing to vote for Trump, why? Even if the answer is complicated you can’t dismiss them all outright.

I see a decent amount of comments painting all republics with one brush. I think it’s low effort and unproductive.

Would have controlled Lake Tahoe and most headwaters of the Sierras. Sneaky

Shit I wouldn’t go after K pop or the Beehive either.

If this is like California, the proposition process allows the gathering of signatures and if enough are collected, the proposition goes to the ballot for direct democracy vote, bypassing the legislature in many cases.

I’ve never heard of police going to verify signatures directly. But it’s not technically voting.

Popeyes fried chicken sandwich used brioche and triggered a wider trend in fast food. This was like 2019/2020

Billie Joe is sober now. Entire band night be sober, at least they don’t drink at shows at all now.

I like the Hotwife content but its not a line I want to cross IRL.

Ah gotcha

Pliny or Heady Topper?

The moon is just the sun’s backboard.

Taco Bell claims 88% beef with water and seasoning composing the rest.

I was the same until I was actively looking for another job. I wanted to ability to provide an instant read/response.

County Jail on charges of resisting arrest and battery. Afterward, he was released “still wearing nothing but his underwear and a disposable hospital outfit; he had no wallet, phone or money,” the complaint states. “He did not remember Alice’s phone number in the jail and they would not help him contact her, so he walked in his hospital slippers about a half mile to a gas station,” where workers helped him call a taxi.

I’m familiar with the case but not this detail. Seriously, fuck these thugs.

Was it Taco Bell people were complaining that the meat filling isn’t ground all ground beef? I was like sweet I’d rather it be seasoned veggie delight anyway. Meat quality is not the draw of Taco Bell.

Your fins twirking or you just happy to see me?

So frustrating. False issue complaints waste everyone’s time and make good people potentially doubt their work. And they disincentivize businesses from offering no hassle return/fix policies.
