Sam Darnold couldn't have possibly made a better throw than the one he uncorked to Jaxon Smith-Njigba for 61-yard touchdown. Right in the damn bucket!

"“While I strongly support the author’s goal of establishing necessary safeguards for the safe use of AI by minors, (the bill) imposes such broad restrictions on the use of conversational AI tools that it may unintentionally lead to a total ban on the use of these products by minors,” Newsom said."

Come on, like Americans would ever start a revolution over tariffs on caffeinated beverages.

The Atlantic @theatlantic.com · 7h

Tariffs have rapidly increased the price of coffee—a drink with almost no nutritional value and lots of functional substitutes. Yet coffee may also be the one thing Americans can’t live without, @elcush.bsky.social writes:

The Drink That Americans Won’t Give Up Without a Fight

Coffee has almost no nutritional value and lots of substitutes. It’s also, apparently, too important to lose.

A suggestion I have for people who want to read 1 article is to see if it’s available through your library. Different library systems have access to different things, but there’s a lot more available through library websites than people realize!

The Regime's goal is to grind everyone down. Plain & simple. Our goal is to refuse this by taking turns to fight where and how we can. When one group needs to bow out, then another group needs to step in and so on. We don't all have to do everything. We can all do something though. Stay in the fight

hahahaha um quick question, what the f

Prior Clara Schumann, there was no clear distinction between the professions of pianist and composer. Professional pianists were expected to present their own compositions during concerts and recitals, and the public demanded something new every time. This was fine if the pianist also happened to be credible as a composer, like Weber or Chopin. But, more often, audiences were subjected to an endless parade of vapid virtuoso showpieces and sentimental salon works.
Clara Schumann had begun her career this way: as a young virtuoso, she composed many salon-style pieces for her recital programs, but over time this left her increasingly dissatisfied. She was sufficiently self-aware to realize she was not a great composer and she found it increasingly difficult to continue to present what she considered to be substandard music to her knowledgeable audiences, especially when so much great music by truly great composers remained unheard.

Please remember that the disgust people have over Christopher Columbus is not based on some modern, 21st century “woke” ideology, but rather on contemporaneous accounts of atrocities that make many modern genocides appear quaint in comparison.

Below, are the accounts of Bartlomé de las Casas.

But too many of the slaves died in captivity. And so Columbus, desperate to pay back dividends to those who had in-vested, had to make good his promise to fill the ships with gold. In the province of Cicao on Haiti, where he and his men imagined huge gold fields to exist, they ordered all persons fourteen years or older to collect a certain quantity of gold every three months. When they brought it, they were given copper tokens to hang around their necks. Indians found without a copper token had their hands cut off and bled to death.
The Indians had been given an impossible task. The only gold around was bits of dust garnered from the streams. So they fled, were hunted down with dogs, and were killed.

After each six or eight months' work in the mines, which was the time required of each crew to dig enough gold for melting, up to a third of the men died.
While the men were sent many miles away to the mines, the wives remained to work the soil, forced into the excruciating job of digging and making thousands of hills for cassava plants.
Thus husbands and wives were together only once every eight or ten months and when they met they were so exhausted and depressed on both sides... they ceased to pro-create. As for the newly born, they died early because their mothers, overworked and fam-ished, had no milk to nurse them, and for this reason, while I was in Cuba, 7000 children died in three months. Some mothers even drowned their babies from sheer desper-ation.... In this way, husbands died in the mines, wives died at work, and children died from lack of milk ... and in a short time this land which was so great, so powerful and fer-tile... was depopulated... My eyes have seen these acts so foreign to human nature, and now I tremble as I write....
