People against piracy fail to realize that no, I can’t just ‘buy it.’ They stopped making DVDs and Blu-Rays. They’re barely offering digital copies for download. I am not spending money I could use for food or bills to pay for a subscription service just so I can always have access to a beloved piece of media. Especially not when the service will remove media on a whim without concern for how the loss of access to that piece will make its artistic conservation nigh impossible.

For example, I recently learned that Disney+ had an original film called Crater. It’s scifi, family friendly, and seems cool - I would love to buy it as a holiday gift for my little brother! But: it’s exclusive to D+ and THEY REMOVED IT LITERALLY MONTHS AFTER ITS RELEASE.

The ONLY way I can directly access this film is through piracy. The ONLY available ‘copies’ of this film are hosted on piracy websites. Disney will NEVER release it in theaters, or as something to buy, and it may NEVER return to the streaming service. It will be LOST because we aren’t allowed to purchase it for personal viewing. If I can’t pay to own it, I won’t pay for the privilege of losing it when corporate decides to put it in a vault.

So yes, I’m going to pirate and support piracy.

Edit: if you are able, use $5 you would otherwise use for a streaming subscription to donate to a GazaFunds campaign.

🍋 Lemon Tree Hotels Expands Again: New Darjeeling Property and a Year of Steady Growth

Lemon Tree Hotels Limited (LTHL), India’s leading mid-market hospitality chain, has just signed a new property in Darjeeling, West Bengal. The 65-room hotel under the Keys Prima brand is the latest addition in a string of signings that reflect the company’s bullish stance on asset-light expansion across India.

📍 A Fresh Address in Darjeeling

The new hotel, set to open in FY 2026, will be managed by Lemon Tree’s wholly owned subsidiary, Carnation Hotels Private Limited. It will feature 65 rooms, a restaurant, a meeting room, and public spaces for leisure and corporate travelers. Located close to the Darjeeling railway station and with road access to Bagdogra Airport, it’s positioned for high visibility and accessibility.

🏨 Lemon Tree’s Pipeline: What’s Been Signed Recently?

🕒 In the Last 3 Months:

Estimated 3 to 4 hotel signings, including:

📅 In the Last 1 Year:

Lemon Tree’s portfolio has grown from ~180 to over 210 hotels (including pipeline properties).

That means the company signed at least 30 new properties in the past year, most under management or franchise agreements.

The company continues to focus on high-demand micro-markets across India, especially in leisure and religious circuits.

💼 Revenue and Profit Impact: Crunching the Numbers

Lemon Tree’s strategy revolves around managed/franchised hotels, which means it doesn’t own the real estate but earns a management fee (typically 8–12% of total revenue) from each hotel.

📈 For the Darjeeling Property:

Expected Annual Revenue (hotel level): ₹6–7.5 crore

Estimated Fee Income for Lemon Tree: ₹50–90 lakhs/year

Revenue starts from FY 2027 (after the hotel opens in FY26)

🏨 Impact from All Acquisitions in Last 12 Months:

30 new properties × average 60–80 rooms

Estimated aggregate annual revenue (hotel level): ₹450–550 crore

Lemon Tree’s potential fee income: ₹35–50 crore annually once all hotels are operational

These properties are expected to go live in staggered timelines over FY26–FY28

This marks a significant boost to recurring income with minimal capital investment, improving both margins and return on capital employed (ROCE).

🔍 Strategic Outlook

Lemon Tree’s multi-brand portfolio includes:

Aurika Hotels & Resorts (Luxury)

Lemon Tree Premier (Upper Midscale)

Red Fox Hotels (Economy)

Keys Prima, Select & Lite (Midscale to Budget)

By leveraging its asset-light model, Lemon Tree continues to deepen its presence across India and abroad (Dubai, Bhutan, Nepal), reduce risk, and strengthen profitability.

💬 Final Word

The Darjeeling hotel is more than just a scenic location; it's a testament to Lemon Tree’s disciplined, data-driven expansion. With 30+ new hotels added to its pipeline in a year and a clear path to increased fee-based revenue, Lemon Tree Hotels is not just growing — it's growing smart.

I have some questions about karaoke night, Alex Hirsch. Very Important Questions. Which I will happily scream at a poor hapless baby triangle who can have no answers for me, and possibly also does not have object permanence yet.

Follow-up that is I guess suggestive, but let's be real here, Bill's a fucking triangle:

Dude slipped right into his birthday suit, lmao

this is so stupid :D

Anyway, I don't care what anyone says, this brilliant individual knows what's up - Bill is absolutely way more of a monsterfucker than Ford could or ever will be, full stop.
