I can't help but think about what it would have meant for that guy to give $3 billion to VCU (where I work) instead of Carnegie Mellon.

Someone absolutely needs to study the impact of staying on Twitter on those in education spaces. I just read an essay that was fairly eyebrow raising and sure enough, the author is an active user on X.

LOL, who did this?

Eric Schmitt reading Basketball for Dummies with Caitlin Clark laughing behind him.

Tough day for the CC haters.

If Dems take the House and Senate, they should pass a law saying the proper terminology is now Superduper Intelligence.

Number 9 for the Giants has bad Joe Pisarcik vibes. Good move.

So, was Senator Schmitt setup by an aide or did his aides really screw up?

Denied by the MacArthur Foundation AGAIN. Dammit. I am starting to take this personally.

Fun!

Was the 2020 presidential election rigged?
No. Official certified results show Joseph R. Biden Jr. won the 2020 presidential election.
⁃ Electoral College: Biden 306, Donald J. Trump 232 (270 needed to win) ⁃ States certified their results; Congress certified the Electoral College count on January 6, 2021
Federal reviews after the election did not find evidence that vote totals were manipulated or that a foreign government changed the outcome,

LOL if true

Jon Becker @jonbecker.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

I've been in a meeting and now checking Bluesky... I think what happened is that Caitlin Clark plays for the Atlanta Hawks now? Do I have that right?

We don't use the word "ennui" enough.

McAfee and SAS are everywhere on ESPN and I hate it.

Case Keenum can still sling it, but these Bears receivers are wide open?

The ESPN fantasy app is telling me that there is a 1% chance that Saquon Barkley will score -27.5 points tonight. That would mean 14 fumbles lost.

I guess I feel like there was a time when "conservatives" would have been a tad upset if the POTUS shared something from an account called "HowlingBunghole". Times have changed, though...

DHS posted what now?!?

NFL asks DHS to take down Brian Dawkins social media video

The NFL asked DHS to remove a social media post likening former Eagles star Brian Dawkins' greatest hits to immigration agents' treatment of migrants.

My Giants panicked and traded for JJ McCarthy. I hope they didn't give up too much.

A'ja. Do I really need to defend that?

Good thing we're eliminating gender studies programs in higher ed...

(*straightens bowtie*) If we were truly serious about "fixing schools" and improving education, we would start with a comprehensive anti-poverty policy agenda.

Well, that was quite a turnaround for fantasy football owners (like me) who have the Broncos as their D/ST.

I love that for the Cowboys.
