There’s nothing edgy or remotely interesting about this. It’s well known that the photo was staged. It’s listed that way in the Library of Congress and in Rosa Parks’ own autobiography.

That civil rights leaders “told her to create a situation where she’d be arrested” is a fabrication. It also overlooks the larger moral truth of what was happening at the time: a regime of state-enforced racial humiliation that a woman of conscience refused to obey.

An intellectual coward’s idea of an exposé. No different from the Churchill or WWII revisionism — a kernel of a fact, load-bearing lie, packaged as “we’ve been lied to about everything.” Everyone associated with this should be embarrassed.

Why is Elon Musk melting down over #TheOdyssey and the Oscars?

"Every best picture winner in the Academy’s 98-year history — from the 'Wings' in 1929 through 'One Battle After Another' this past March — clears the Oscars' new inclusion rules. That also includes 'Oppenheimer,' the film directed by Christopher Nolan, with whom Elon Musk had no problem until this past week. And Nolan’s upcoming adaptation of Homer’s 'The Odyssey,' whenever the Academy gets a look at it, would also clear the inclusion standards, and it’s not because Lupita Nyong’o was cast as Helen of Troy," writes Variety's Clayton Davis.

It’s the one thing we’re all chasing. Yet the feel of a pure iron shot is difficult to describe—and even tougher to create.

"Finding Feel" is a new Titleist original series that reveals the joy and strain of trying to pin down one of golf’s most subjective pursuits.

Accessible, affordable, interesting golf architecture is coming to San Francisco.

Golden Gate Park is set to reopen in early 2024 following a renovation by architect @jayblasi. Playable for all and architecturally stimulating, the par-3 course is sure to turn heads

This NYT piece is an endless stream of bangers.

I swear, one of the more destructive recent cultural trends has been the combined push to frame all distress or discomfort as mental illness, and then to encourage people to form their identity around being “mentally ill.”

Bob Melvin will be the next manager of the San Francisco Giants, per @extrabaggs & @sdutKevinAcee

“A big reason that the AI hype machine has been in overdrive, issuing apocalyptic claims about its vast power, is that the companies selling the tools want to make it all feel inevitable—to feel like the future—and have you believe that resisting it is both futile and stupid.”

[Lauren Wilford @lauren_wilford]

the erosion of a sense of agency is a huge part of the experience of depression/anxiety. My concern is that the more we collectively offload to machines, the more alienated we all get from our own agency

[Dave @gggiants]

This whole section is just A+. Baer basically saying the bonehead Giants fan base didn’t understand the plan at first but are starting to get it now. Also, plenty of tickets available for Opening Day!
