Should I ruin NYT Wordle? Should I tell everybody how to get the correct answer every time on the first try - including predict all future answers?

Wordle 1,111 1/6 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

I like hitting those by accident in once in a while, but I am curious. What if you posted it for maybe, say five minutes, then deleted it?

There are other Worldle alternatives out there besides the NYT one, we shouldn't really be giving NYT any traffic at all.

Wordle is not a good enough reason to support NYT. It's just a goddamn game FFS. I would ruin it.

I also strongly suggest stealing from The NY Times no no I don’t mean steal a subscription I mean rough up Dash Sulzberger for his milk money every day

NY Times subscription cancelled an hour ago. Good idea to use the money to donate to a downticket race!

In February I canceled my subscription, demanded my money back, and gave it to Trans Lifeline.

done.

You're a champ

Here's my link for my shared ActBlue fundraising form of my slate of recipients focused on downticket races: secure.actblue.com/donate/ericg...

Flip NH blue!secure.actblue.com Help flip the NH State House!

You can also bypass the Paywall of NYT and WaPo 1. Inspect the page 2. Delete the "div" I highlighted in image 1 2. On the "vi-gateway-container", turn off position fixed and overflow hidden to allowing scrolling (image 2) 3. Delete the gradient overlay at the bottom of the template (image 3)

I only had a discounted student plan & I enjoyed some reporting, but I'm happy to cancel my subscription with the @nytimes.com over its horrible anti-trans and anti-democracy positions. Happy Independence Day, y'all! 🥳🥳🍾💥💥

I just donated using @charlesgaba.bsky.social 's handy blue24.org and it makes me feel slightly less garbage to give money to liberal state SC candidates

Blue24.orgblue24.org Not a PAC. Just helping raise money for Democratic candidates to help save democracy.

Local political organizations are far more important to democracy than 10% more money to downballot politicalcampaigns.

Local political organizations are important enough to democracy that Democratic Party major donors have either destroyed or weakened them.

Downticket races are very important, and are threatened by the ambivalence being fomented.

@kleinman.bsky.social Bobby - we turn our eyes to you!

Already DID it ALL!!!💙🌊💙👍

I’m doing my part

It would be cool if you could somehow donate in the Times’ honor.

I cannot

Do it.

And #turnoffcnn

done and done 🔥

Has the NYT been canceled recently or do you mistrust all major news organizations?

when was the last time you read the NYT Phil

serious q btw. I know you've been upset that people don't engage you and clarify on this site so I am trying.

Haha. You looked at my feed. Cool! I had an online Kindle subscription 10 years ago. I read it everyday but gave it up for financial reasons. BTW I saw the article saying voting is meaningless after I replied to your tweet.

Yeah. It's been so bad for so long. Trans panic was the canary in the coal mine.

Oh the slide has been long.

Absolutely agree! Specifically, state legislatures set the election rules, which is where most of the anti-voter stuff comes from. The absolute biggest impact you can have for saving democracy is to do everything you can for those close state legislature races.

An organization for strategic funding of progressive candidates in the senate and house to flip control blue are the ForceMultiplier.com.

Did both yesterday

Assuming that cancelling your NYT subscription is a net good (which seems a safe assumption), don't you have the "single best thing" and "second best thing" backwards? Or is the former premised on a contribution much higher than the cost of a typical NYT subscription?

Contribute to all blue races! :)
