Here's the resident garden #peacock who we call Inspector Pritchard. He's losing feathers aplenty and lost his long tail feathers really quickly this year, although is crown is still intact at the moment #nature#wildlife#birds#birdphotography#birdwatching
Universal Pictures radically trimmed a bunch of trees outside of their Los Angeles studios that happened to shade the sidewalk where #WGA and #SAGAFTRA were picketing. They were perhaps not legally allowed to touch said trees. #TreeLaw
Over at NBC, also part of Universal, sidewalks have been dug out all around the property, allegedly for repairs but no one digs out three blocks of sidewalks all at once for repairs. This has hampered but not stopped the picketing. /1
Both of the striking unions have been clear to consumers that there are no boycotts. They want us to continue going to movies and they do not want us to cancel our subscription to streaming services.
Yesterday subscribers to #Peacock, NBCUniversal’s streamer, received a notice of an immediate 20% premium hike across all tiers. This will inevitably lead to subscription cancellations which NBCUniversal can point to as proof that streaming revenues are both unpredictable and declining. /2
Just got an email from peacock with upcoming changes to my subscription pricing. OK, sure. The problem? Said pricing changes are contained in an inaccessible, unlabeled chart with no alt text that just shows up to my screen reader as "pricing chart." So, I have no idea what these changes...actually are. Do better!
The deadly heat & extreme weather events are a direct consequence of our ongoing burning of fossil fuels -- but it's not too late to prevent things from getting worse. I discussed with the great Jen Psaki (@JrPsaki) on @MSNBC / #Peacock 's #InsideWithPsaki: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JW69MaHercA
Looking forward to talking with @jrpsaki about the current outbreak of extreme weather events, the climate crisis, and what we can still do about it on #MSNBC/#Peacock's #InsideWithPsaki. Details to come...
@loudmouthjulia I'm just wondering. With the streamers - and now the tendency of #FAST - How much is the cost of bandwidth weighing on these providers such as #Disney, #Paramount, #Peacock, etc?
I know it must be a huge number and since FAST "streams each channel" 24/7, all those channels MUST be a drain - maybe even more so than the feeds and satellite costs to transmit terrestrial channels to traditional cable.
Just finished watching #Renfield on #peacock and I really dug it. Whoever thought it was a good idea to cast #NicholasCage as #Dracula was really onto something. Just a fun, extremely gory, flick. 👍
This is the handsome lad we call Inspector Pritchard. He likes to come right up to the house and display - usually trying to scare away squirrels and the larger birds at the feeders ... not that they take any notice at all #nature#birds#peacock#birdphotography
Fiesty Peacock, ink painting. Interesting fact, the feathers of a peacock possess microscopic crystal-like structures, which reflect different wavelengths of lights depending on their spacing. These crystal-like structures are what create the fluorescent colors of the bird.

Do watch the last episode of "#Leguizamo does America" on #MSNBC next Sunday at 10pm ET. If you haven't seen the others, they are well-produced and enjoyable. As my last retoot said, it's also streaming on #Peacock. Good TV worth watching.
