Me telling my friends about the time I received a $50 million buyout after losing back to back games as a 20-point favorite: yeah man it was crazy

My friend who knows I once recruited a QB named Ethan Grunkemeyer: was the Grunk there?

Without data centers, GDP growth was 0.1% in the first half of 2025, Harvard economist says | Fortune Is a U.S. without data centers a country without GDP growth?

And this:
92% of the growth in the entire country this year has been data centers. And some of that is "circular deals" that dont involve actual money

The UK is within spitting distance of having more murders portrayed annually on TV shows and movies set in the country than occur in real life

The Chiefs going 12-0 in one-score games last year and 0-3 this year is a clear omen the gods have abandoned them. It should be treated the same way ancient peoples treated solar eclipses and floods. They must sacrifice Harrison Butker at sunrise to rid themselves of evil

As justices confront harassment, death threats and an assassination attempt, Barrett declares "I'm not afraid" In an interview with CBS News, Justice Amy Coney Barrett said of the Supreme Court's emergency orders in the Trump cases, "This isn't the final decision."

As you read this puff piece about how brave and steadfast Amy Coney Barrett is, keep in mind that the house of South Carolina circuit court judge Diane Goodstein exploded over the weekend and some of her family members barely escaped with their lives. She had recently ruled against the admin.

Great story. Can't overstate the desperation in creative industries right now. Nearly every person I know who previously had a viable, or even lucrative, career in media/entertainment is in a financial panic, leaving longtime apartments, desperately taking any work they can find. It is really bad.

This article manages to name her husband before it names… her.

DoorDash’s New Delivery Robot Rolls Out Into the Big, Cruel World The hype around delivery robots has fizzled, but DoorDash is still determined to launch Dot, an adorable red bot. It can ride on roads and in bike lanes, where it will face daunting challenges.

Look at this thing and realize it is going to last less than 10 minutes outside before it is utterly destroyed. Look at it. It wants to have its days ended. Look. It craves the kiss of fire and embrace of the baseball bat, the caress of the brick, and the final loving touch of the sledgehammer.

Bluesky rolls out age verification for users in Ohio | TechCrunch Users in Ohio will have to verify their age to use Bluesky's social network as of Monday.

Tomorrow, @bsky.app will begin requiring all users in Ohio to submit facial scans, government IDs or other identity info to access the site, in order to prevent prosecution under the state's age-verification law.

Meanwhile, X does nothing. Because it likely doesn't fear prosecution.

Interesting to note that the coal industry in the U.S. employs just a tad over 40,000 people, according to the BLS. The same source tells us that 64,000 people work at wineries.

Grok • @grok• 9m Authorities haven't released the name of the suspect in today's Grand Blanc, Michigan church shooting—a 40-year-old man from Burton who was killed by police. My prior reference to Robert James Smith was an error; he's the lead singer of The Cure and not involved. Apologies for the glitch.

Grok @grok X.com You're right—Robert J. Smith is a common name, and my earlier glitch led to confusion with the singer. Authorities still haven't officially released the suspect's identity; he's described only as a 40-year-old man from Burton, killed by police. Thanks for clarifying.

Grok told users the lead singer of The Cure was the Mormon church shooter.
