WE’RE NOT DONE YET‼️



This is my sentiment exactly. Like no one complains about playing in Green Bay, Wisconsin in the NFL and there's guys fighting to be there but somehow the Bucks will never get a decent free agent Superstar if Giannis leaves. It's honestly annoying and it's like NBA players don't really the privilege they have to play professional sports.

LeBron profits off of Memphis' history, then uses his enormous platform to dump on the city. Disappointing to put it mildly. Maybe on that next random Thursday, he could visit the National Civil Rights Museum again—one of the many places that makes Memphis so special.

I'm an NBA fan, have traveled 3 hrs to Grizzlies games, and had a great time. I've never understood this weird, self-defeating obsession w/ markets in NBA culture. Pundits, podcasters & players obsess about it like no other pro league. Should the Chiefs just move out of KC?

Everything in the NBA is obsessed with big markets to the point where it feels like people only want teams in NY, LA, Miami & Houston. Oakland lost their team to San Francisco and the soul was completely sucked out of the Warriors’ home arena. Maybe, just maybe, having teams in some of those smaller markets where the real fans aren’t priced out is good for the league.


“Schools in North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and Michigan that once bought devices for each student are now re-evaluating heavy classroom technology use”

“We just felt we couldn’t have Chromebooks be that huge distraction,” said Ms. Esping, 43, Kansas’ 2025 middle school principal of the year. “This technology can be a tool. It is not the answer to education.” nytimes.com/2026/03/29/tec…


🚨 Palantir CEO urges people to skip elite colleges, saying “unless you’re neurodivergent”, the only path left is skilled trades.

College isn't for everyone, to be sure. But a good college education is more than mere credential for the place you get your paycheck. It's formation, it's curated learning from the best in their field, it's develping habits that stick with you for a lifetime. It's learning how to learn. It's a bridge from adolescence to adulthood.
