My cancelled HULU subscription became a $120 donation to PBS.

ABC, Disney and Hulu can kiss my old patriotic ass.

I did make a hefty donation to PBS a month or so ago when the orange turd stopped federal funding.

But wasn’t fun 😀 At the end of the cancellation process they list 5-6 reasons why you’re cancelling and ask if it’s cost, content, or a few other things. But no ‘other’ choice where you can type an answer like ‘caving to fascists’. Rather than choose one of the misleading choices it allowed me to hit submit without choosing and I promptly got an email about my cancellation. Not sure how I’ll backfill Hulu but not too concerned cuz I don’t watch a lot of tv.
