When we say that school isn't great for boys, it's in part because they are increasingly taught by people who hate them.
A pipeline of young women has been brainwashed into despising males—so much so that some are comfortable saying publicly that we should abort all boys. She teaches special ed in MD.

The reality is this. Many years ago he decided the Young Bucks & Kenny Omega (and they weren't the only ones) would never make it in wrestling. Them making it in Japan led to Japan no longer counting. Them making it in PWG meant he complained about one comedy spot (and every promotion does comedy spots dating back to the 50s and earlier) and thus missing that the talent of the future was developing there and it was the forefront of an in-ring style that was entertaining to many by mixed styles, including Lucha, a style that had not been done much in the U.S. but had tremendous mainsteam appeal and was going to be more prevalent in the U.S. This was because YouTube was opening the door and the Mexican-American population was growing and younger fans liked the pacing and creativity. Then one day Omega had one of the best matches in history and the guy wanted to throw away decade long friendships and respect from a lot of wrestlers because there are things he is really perceptive about and has a good basic history knowledge and is very entertaining. But because he was insistent Omega could never be a star, now main eventing the Tokyo Dome stopped counting. He held onto that he couldn't make it in the U.S. Then he did, so he had to take the tact it didn't actually happen and that it was only becacuse he was pushed by a "mark" owner of a failing concept and business and he wasn't over. I was wrong about Orange Cassidy. I hated the idea that Jim Ross would have to announce an Orange Cassidy match. But then it got over, people started dressing like him, and people I'd meet on the streets would tell me how he was one of their favorite wrestlers. So I learned. Didn't cry about it. Didn't pretend he wasn't over. I already knew he was a good worker, I knew that from seeing him on indies. So there's your answer.
I’m sick to my stomach. What’s the point of honing your craft as an artist when fucking A.i. can do all the work.
I know my music is supbar. I use that as motivation to get better.
Fuck it, just use A.i.
I hate this.
But hey, keep supporting Spotify🖕
I’ll stick to Apple Music
Spotify just announced a feature that could either save the music industry or destroy it.
Starting as early as Q1 2027, Spotify Premium subscribers will be able to use AI to transform any participating artist’s song into a completely different version. Turn a folk ballad into a dance track. Make a hip-hop song sound acoustic. Generate a cover where one artist’s voice performs another artist’s song. Remix a pop hit into lo-fi study music. Create the version of your favorite song that only existed in your head until now.
The remixes will be uploaded directly to Spotify. They’ll appear in playlists. They’ll count toward the original song’s chart position. And most importantly the original artist will earn royalties every time someone listens to a fan-created remix of their work.
Spotify has already signed a landmark licensing deal with Universal Music Group the world’s largest record label. Negotiations with Sony Music and Warner Music are ongoing. The feature will cost an additional $4–$5/month on top of Spotify Premium. And analysts project 7–8% of American subscribers will adopt it by 2028.
This is not Suno or Udio generating music from text prompts. This is fans remixing real songs by real artists with the artists’ permission, on the world’s largest streaming platform, with royalties flowing back to the creators.
A music industry analyst who’s covered streaming economics for 15 years told her team something after reading the licensing agreement that reframed how she understood the future of recorded music.
“Spotify just turned 640 million listeners into 640 million potential remixers. The question isn’t whether people will use it they will. The question is whether paying artists for fan remixes solves the economics of streaming or creates a world where the original recording is worth less than the infinite remixes generated from it.”
Here’s what Spotify’s AI remix feature actually is, who wins, who loses, and why this might be the most consequential decision in the music industry since the launch of streaming itself 🧵

🚨NEW: Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick sat down today with @WSJ to discuss the launch of Grand Theft Auto VI.
The interviewer literally said straight to his face that they don’t have any major hits, despite the huge success of GTA 5 and Red Dead 2… 💀
Strauss’ reaction says it ALL… What a clueless clown she is… 🤡😭
