I heard there was a Super Bowl. And the Seahawks beat the Patriots. Not that I care about either woke New England or woke Seattle (which was still beautiful when I was there in 2008). Not that I follow football (haven't followed in decades, not since college). Not that my home team even exists anymore: the beloved Redskins became the Commanders.
Oh, and I heard there's this other thing that's been going on since February 6: the Olympics. In Milan. Or "Milano Cortina," as they're calling it (apparently short for "Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo"). Considering how politicized the Olympics have always been, and considering the US team has a lot of young members who are not proud to represent the States, what's my motivation to watch that?
So, it seems to me that nothing, really, is happening outside my hole.
