Oops. Forgot that the Raiders are in Nevada and not California anymore
I'm not convinced that this will hurt player acquisition. Of the states that don't have an income tax, only Texas, Tennessee, and Florida have NFL teams. Clearly there isn't a competitive advantage
In 2022, a young godwit code-named “B6” that hatched in western Alaska set the record for longest known sustained avian flight. After being fitted with a two-ounce satellite transmitter, the young bird was tracked flying south across the Pacific, finally veering sharply westward to land safely on Tasmania. This bird traveled 8,321 miles over 264 hours of flight — that’s 11 days, without touching down on water or land, without anything to eat or drink.

They should talk strategy with the orcas
Whole mornings you’ll lose, and whole afternoons
To trolling and arguing with faceless buffoons
Like MAGABro69 and DixieBrunette —
You may even say a few things you regret.
But it’s okay!
You’ll be tenured!
And joy will abound

Kind of crazy how every academic on this site has more respect for scholar-soldiers than Hegseth does.
I don't need a faculty writing accountability group, I need a faculty grading accountability group.
just a reminder that you already know everything you need to know about the state of the union and unless you will enjoy watching it there's a million other things you can do. you don't have to be "in the loop." the loop is a trash place to be tbh
