I thought Crawford would win a close fight by frustrating Canelo, but that was something else. What a legend.
That was incredible. What a fighter, as good as they get
I think Pittsburgh saw it. They weren't happy to see him leave.
The craziest thing about this Steelers-Jets game is that it feels like a really high-quality game between two good teams.
For sure, happy for Fields, honestly. Hope this is a sign of the kind of year he's going to have.
Rodgers is looking pretty good, though. Our front 7 on defense is an absolute mess in this first half.

Oh wow, I will have to check that out myself!
I am such a sucker for the deliberate, almost quiet, interpretations. I'm thinking mostly of Richter's renditions (late 1970s) that begin from an extraordinarily slow, mournful initial gesture, gradually building in passion until the final few notes just float away. Truly glorious stuff.
The world is a mess and this sentiment is trite, but Clair de Lune is just a perfect work of music composition. Five minutes of the sublime.
“McDonalds workers in Denmark make more than Honda workers in Alabama” is such a key point. It’s the institutions, stupid.
today we will all read imbens 2021 on statistical significance and p values, which is a strong contender for having the best opening paragraph of any stats paper

Inspired by the recent sessions on social networks at the @geographers.bsky.social annual meeting, Dr. Walther argues that the growing focus on networks in geography should lead to more theorizing of space
Undocumented workers are bad, so let’s have teenagers replace them working overnight so they can fall asleep in school, because who needs education when they can work for sweatshop wages?

sreenshot from the new york times reporting that Stanford University’s provost is talking about how the loss of funding from national institutes of health funding will cost the university $160 million. that’s not the way to get this changed — the people think “stanford is rich; no big deal.” leaders need to talk about what this will cost the public
for pity’s sake, I am BEGGING university leaders to stop framing this issue in terms of what this will cost the university. people dont care!
EXPLAIN WHAT THIS WILL COST THE PUBLIC: closed hospitals and clinics, skipped treatments, loss of access to experimental drugs, unemployment, recession
