Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.

So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:

Since CU refuses to acknowledge that our men’s and women’s basketball teams exist, Homefield is the best spot to support Tad and JR. Love the men’s hoops and women’s hoops tee’s I bought from them.
OUR BIGGEST SALE OF THE YEAR IS HERE.

30% OFF THE SITE (some exclusions apply)

If we’re going to have “Flight of the Conchords” songs in TV ads, I really need a dating app ad with “Too Many Dicks on the Dance Floor”.

Art Briles has been hired as the head football coach at a D2 school and so is back in the news. If you want to understand why this hire is upsetting for many, here's the long piece @dansolomon.com and I wrote back in 2019 about How Baylor Happened: web.archive.org/web/20190208...

Great thoughts on this as always from Ben.

Top-lines: 5-0, exciting offense, shaky defense, reason for both hope and concern, Big XII ceiling will still hit hard.

There are a mere few days left before we can finally, again, hit the road. The road of uncertainty, but a path paved with promises to untold, outstanding surprises that await.

The road that connects the sport.

The road to the Final Four.
