Growing up, a hit song crossed demographics whether the genre was your favorite or not. People who don’t primarily listen to country still know Dolly, Shania, Carrie, The Chicks, etc. because they made actual hit records that crossed over. If a song can spend 23 weeks at #1, breaking records that stood for 20+ years, while a huge portion of the public is sincerely saying they’ve never heard it, maybe the conversation isn’t “people hate country.” Maybe @RollingStone should be writing about how streaming-era chart dominance no longer equals cultural dominance because there’s some trickery at play. That’s the real story being avoided. Don’t gaslight us.

The fact that every announcer references “Peanut Tillman” or the “Peanut Punch” every single time a player punches a ball out, and Peanut Tillman is not a Hall of Famer yet, is baffling to me. He changed the game and deserves a spot. #Bears
this might just be my late-millennial showing but there was a stretch from halfway through season one to about midway through season three where this show operated on a level I don’t think any sitcom has ever matched
all other allegations aside, "we caught wind that a mathematician might be about to solve a famous problem so we spent $15 million on tokens to scoop them" is exactly why OpenAI is completely full of shit when it says it wants to work with the academic community in a positive way
“Mr. Homan, do you believe that ICE should be arresting parents in front of their children at school bus stops?”
