    Fair....though I'm 36 also and wouldn't mind someone referring to me as a young man.

    I mean the actual clip on the sideline, not him telling the story about it

    She needs to grow up but, conversely, I watched grown adult men treat Joe Paterno like a deity for 30 years.

    Bingo. Also, why I detest “content.”

    “Content” can be whatever garbage is put out there. Stories written by journalists are not “content.”

    Given that the business is supposed to have wordsmiths, that some lazy bums are allowed to throw a generic catchall such as “content” is even more puzzling - and maddening.

    That ship left the dock a long time ago. If we’re going to survive getting paid for this for as long as possible, thinking of ourselves as content creators is a good idea. And plenty of good journalism can be done in that lens. People do explainers on TikTok all the time.

    Regarding the original subject, I must make a point to check her Twitter/X offerings over the next day or two.

    So glad this joint is still kicking b/c laughing at her on Twitter would just give her the attention she craves. Laughing at her here is guilt-free!
