“This is not to say, however, that David Sacks has no influence in the Trump administration: […] still a billionaire CEO, which is a better credential in Trump’s eyes than any kind of expertise.” Brutal, but fair, and explains a lot of what is wrong with the US these days.

No seriously, how can the Prime NBA broadcast audio still be so fucked this late into the post-season?? Why do they refuse to acknowledge the existence of the center channel?

My Seahawks are for sale, and I’m kinda terrified of the future. Paul Allen (and his estate) was an incredible steward of the team and generally seemed like good people. The next owner is likely to be some kind of shady investment group (or worse, someone like Bezos), and that just feels gross.
