Is Netflix Breaking The Bank - Thursday!

⏱ Estimated Read Time: 1 minute

What is good, everyone? It’s Thursday, and did you see that Netflix is raising prices? They’re adding $2 to even their cheapest plan, so now you’re paying $7.99 with ads. And it’s, like, $3.50 if you’re on the highest tier plan, which gives you no ads and family viewing. I don’t know at what point you just get sick of it and say, “Screw this!” and go back to pirating TV shows.

You’ve got Netflix, Hulu, Disney Plus, and Amazon Prime. Amazon’s included in Amazon Prime if you already have it, but then you have Apple TV. At what point are you just like, “Holy, I’m paying $90 and I’m still not getting sports!” And then you’ve got to pay for your sports packages. All of a sudden, you’re getting everything on demand, but the cost is insane. How do people keep up?

Are we all still secretly sharing Netflix passwords? In our family, we all used to have one password for everything. Then, I was like, “You know what, family? I am done with this. I am not contributing to this Netflix account anymore,” and I canceled it. I think my brother was like, “Yeah, I can’t live without Netflix,” so he got it back.

TV is insane! I’ve been binging old TV, like Comfort TV—stuff I’ve already watched. Seinfeld, How I Met Your Mother, Everybody Loves Raymond. Just stuff that I’ve seen a gazillion times, like The Office. There’s so much new stuff that I’ll probably watch in, like, ten years when that’s the new Comfort stuff. But it’s not really Comfort if you haven’t watched it once. I know Scrubs is coming back, though, so I’m excited about that. But at some point, you’ve got to wonder how we afford all this TV. I know there are other things that we can afford to do, like buy hard drives and just download them via Plex and watch them on Plex. But I ain’t condoning that, am I? Anyways, y’all have a great day, save that money, and peace.

Ai Header Image Prompt: High quality, ultra detailed abstract digital art illustration. A dynamic and surreal composition featuring a central, fractured digital screen or a shattered, geometric piggy bank, from which a vibrant, chaotic cascade of luminous data streams, glowing pixels, and abstract color gradients erupts. These elements subtly hint at the iconic color palettes and digital interfaces of popular streaming services (e.g., deep reds, bright blues, emerald greens, warm oranges), intertwining and overflowing into the surrounding space, creating a sense of overwhelming abundance and financial strain. The shards and fragments should appear sharp and intricate, emphasizing the 'breaking' aspect. The background is a deep, atmospheric void with subtle, volumetric lighting that creates depth and emphasizes the ethereal, digital nature of the scene. The overall aesthetic is a blend of abstract expressionism and digital realism, with smooth transitions and complex layering. Emphasize nuanced color grading, rich textures, and an organic flow to avoid an overtly AI look. No visible artifacts, perfectly formed shapes. No text or logos.
