Cold plunges are a form of performative suffering for wealthy people

It was widely considered like one of the worst parts of our week when like everyone on our team had to do a cold plunge and then out of nowhere it has just become widely known as like the best thing that people are like paying to go do for luxury... life is so easy that they like to do something that makes them feel pain... I heard about this on a podcast.

Subjective take on the cultural motivation behind a fitness trend.

The government should intervene to force streaming services into a bundled sports package

If you wanna be a sports fan in America, you are paying a shit load of money... You have to get all these streaming packages. I think the government is gonna try to break 'em up... or force them to merge bundle into a bundle back to cable.

The US government and FTC have shown increased interest in antitrust actions against tech bundles (or lack thereof), but no such forced 'sports bundle' has been legislated yet.

The NBA's 65-game award rule was specifically created because of Joel Embiid

It's a thousand percent... it's literally the Joel Embiid rule. No, this rule was made because of Joel Embiid. They made the rule because of Joel Embiid because people were upset that he won the MVP and they didn't think that he played enough games.

While the rule was spurred by 'load management' trends, Embiid played 66 games in his MVP season, meaning he would have qualified under the current rule anyway.

The Phillies will regress to a wild card team and lose in the first round

I think Phillies are regressing. They'll still make the playoffs as a wild card team. They'll sneak in and then lose in the first round.

Depends on the 2026 Phillies performance.
