stl has *such* a fantastic creative community; the fact that Onder went with AI slop says a lot about them and none of it's nice. sadly for them, film folks in stl are very well connected and very petty (complimentary). good luck, babe

When I was researching Jeffrey Epstein I was a bit frustrated that no one had done this. I found lists but they were either partial lists or they didn’t contain much information on each woman so I made my own. open.substack.com/pub/decoding...

Some backups exist. Nothing can replace the originals.

The media business will still have superstar figures/some independence, but media will become in-house PR.
Foundations have already been set. Journalism isn't adversarial and often indistinct from aggregation slop. Athletes executive produce their own documentaries on Netflix. Fans won't object.
I'm not slamming SXM at all. They treated me well and I get why they made the decision.
But it's a sign of MMA's decline and the slow but inexorable devastation of the media business.
The corporate MMA media business, specifically, is nearing collapse.
This may have gone unnoticed, but SiriusXM has officially eliminated all MMA programming.
I'm not sure how this is received, but let me illustrate how grave I think this news is:
With this elimination, that means the last 3 jobs I had in combat sports *no longer even exist*.
It is perfectly acceptable to begin a sentence with ‘and.’
And it’s equally acceptable to begin a sentence with ‘but’ or ‘or.’
