Formerly @codypd of Twitter/X now parked here. Just another one of those mensa weirdos who has become an absurdist because that's the only way I make sense of the world.

You would think, with Stanford and Cal in the middle of Silicon Valley, they’d be able to set a new course for “affiliated independent” schools in the west who can do streaming deals to fund their athletic programs.

People forget that it isn’t just football. Baseball, gymnastics, golf, rowing … they will all have to travel to the East Coast if these schools join the ACC.

Student athletes unlikely to go pro (like swimmers) aren’t going to benefit from flying to the east coast to compete in most of their meets. And there isn’t enough football TV revenue to cover it.

If you go to the visitor’s center on Mauna Kea on the big island of Hawaii and hang out after sunset you can take pics like this one with your phone.

Mind blooming star gazing up there.

Took this with my iPhone a few months ago.
