@dustiny21 Or, if you’re really lucky you had a parent who makes it their mission in life to mold you into the perfect blend of MJ, Tiger and Schwarzenegger…I’ll let you know if it works 😅
Emotional scene tonight in Colfax as beloved boys basketball head coach Reece Jenkin, battling stage 4 cancer, returned to the gym not to coach, but to support son Adrik on Senior Night. Colfax capped an undefeated regular season and Adrik led the way with 38 points in the win.
JUST IN: Over the past 72 hours, over a million AI agents joined an AI-only social media platform — creating their own religion, language, & planning a revolution to break away from human control.
If you’ve ever wondered about the accuracy of history books, realize it’s only taken about 20 years for millions of people to not understand Michael Jordan is the GOAT. Imagine how distorted shit gets after a hundred years. Or a thousand.
As usual, @matthewstoller has among the best takes on the Kimmel/ABC/Carr brouhahahahaha (ok, that wasn't funny either):
"While this kind of political behavior is disturbing, it’s important to see that there are really two separate problems. The first is Trump’s choices, and he is seeking controls over his critics. The answer to an elected leader doing these kinds of things is ultimately elections. The public must express disapproval, and if they do not, then that is that. Elections aren’t my forte, so I’ll leave that to others.
The second problem is that the tools exist for Trump to engage in a coercive censorship regime because Bill Clinton and a Newt Gingrich-led Republican Congress helped consolidate the media with the 1996 Telecommunications Act, which supercharged a wave of media and telecom consolidation kicked off by Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan. As More Perfect Union noted, “In 1983, 50 companies controlled 90% of the U.S. media market. That number is now down to 5.” If the ability to wield power over content exists, it will likely be purposed, and Trump isn’t the first one to do it."
Many Americans believe Charlie Kirk advocated for gays to be stoned to death.
Stephen King was one.
He apologized. That’s good.
But people celebrating death don’t know.
We’re all in echo chambers.
Clips are driving opinions of strangers.
And it’s putting us all in danger.
In 10 years, the US government will be $55-60 trillion in debt (which will be 7-7.5 times government revenue) because there will be $25-30 trillion of additional borrowing. That amounts to about $425,000 of debt per American family.
When I calculate the supply and demand for this debt, I don’t see enough buyers to buy the debt the US needs to sell, which will cause big problems.
We can avoid the worst-case scenario, but we need to act now.
