After discovering r/TVTooHigh, I can no longer look at photos with TVs normally.
My brain involuntarily begins assessing the TV's distance from both the ceiling and the console. My eyes search for the Tilt of Shame. I reflexively recoil at the sight of a TV above a fireplace.
It cannot be undone.

In case you needed one more reason to boycott the Washington Post…
Their editorial board has come out against releasing the Epstein files
They’re dismissing them as having no public interest & praising Clay Higgins (the one “No” Vote in Congress)
It’s safe to say some journalists are on the list!

i think online gambling is a cancer that is spreading throughout our society, it was a horrible mistake to de-regulate it, and we desperately need to crack down on it again
i can’t talk about sports gambling anymore without sounding like a crank but i do believe legalized sports gambling is like 15-20% responsible for our current dystopia
The Athletic polled hundreds of players from across the NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL about their opinions surrounding how sports betting impacts players — the responses were haunting.
