Now agreed to and official: The #Browns are trading Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to the #Rams for star edge Jared Verse, a 2027 1st-round, a 2028 2nd round, and a 2029 3rd, per me, @AdamSchefter and @TomPelissero.
The offseason's biggest trade is final and real.
THIS chart is the CLEAREST signal of where the internet is heading.
social media time is SHRINKING for the first time in HISTORY, and young people are leading the pullback.
Brainrot is OUT.
they grew up online, saw the full cycle of social platforms, and learned early that endless scroll doesn’t make you happier or smarter.
they’re the LEADING indicator. their parents will follow in 3-5 years.
AI slop is the nail in the coffin.
every feed feels synthetic familiar faces, identical voices, recycled ideas. the “factory smell” of it all finally broke people’s curiosity.
but there’s an upside. every trend creates its anti-trend.
attention is shifting back to things that feel real, slow, and intentional.
people are paying for spaces that make them feel grounded, informed, and connected again.
the next $100M+ companies will engineer density, trust, and time well spent. they’ll build containers for meaning, then use AI to keep them organized, not optimized.
the internet’s oldest assumption that more engagement equals more value is breaking.
the white space i think is...
• "slow media" formats: weekly briefs, serialized content etc
• private groups that operate like clubs with applications and rituals
• provenance and identity layers that verify real creators and sources
• brands with offline gravity like real events, real belonging
• curated directories and vetted marketplaces
• paid memberships that deliver depth
• note: we share business ideas around this on @ideabrowser
• IRL anything - dinners, meetups, shared experiences
young people are abandoning social media faster than their parents are discovering it.
If you understand what that means, that's a big deal.
i can't stop thinking about this FT/GWI chart.
brainrot is OUT.
meaning is IN.
Some of Micah Parsons’ statements today:
“I no longer want to be here.”
“I no longer want to be held to closed door negotiations without my agent present.”
“I no longer want shots taken at me for getting injured while laying on the line for the organization our fans and my teammates.”
“I have made a tough decision. I no longer want to play for the Dallas Cowboys. My trade request has been submitted to Stephen Jones personally.”
What’s the best playbook you guys are using for CFB26?
I’m still trying to decide the route I want to commit to. I will say I’ve been liking Georgia’s gun packages.
Loyalty: South Carolina QB LaNorris Sellers turned down an $8 MILLION NIL offer to transfer to a different school.
"You're 19. You don't need ($8 million). You're in a great spot." - LaNorris's Father told his son.
Sellers values his word over money 👏👏
Ayo Dosunmu says Matas Buzelis could dominate the NBA like Giannis:
“I know Giannis is a Hall of Famer, Top 20, Top 30 player of all-time. But Matas has a chance to really dominate the game like that.”

In regards to Hip Hop right now, 2025….what city is thriving the most, or even close to what their peak era was?
I low key feel like every city feels they’re struggling or chasing the past to some extent, and it might just show where Hip Hop as a whole is right now.
