The Internet is ruining people's brains to the point where they hate things they love

It's such a weird concept to me to have the internet fuck your brain up so much that you can hate something you used to love. And I feel like that's how you get deep into the internet. You get to these people where it's like, how is this real world?

Psychological studies often support the idea of 'internet brain' and echo chambers affecting enjoyment of media.

Adam Silver is on a war against toxic masculinity and can't fine a man for crying

[Steve Ballmer] will just cry. And guess what? Adam Silver, you can't fine a man for crying. As a matter of fact, that's the last thing Adam Silver would ever do because he is on a full war against toxic masculinity. And mental health is a big issue.

Adam Silver has not specifically declared a war on toxic masculinity, though he has focused on mental health. He can and does fine personnel for various public displays.

Texas won; Ohio State choked

I'll say Texas win, Ryan Day choke. The play calling, I don't know, maybe they got too conservative. I think they probably did.

This is a retrospective interpretation of the game rather than a purely objective claim; assigning primary blame is subjective.
