It is heresy to say this, but I don’t think many people will be listening to the music of Jelly Roll Morton in the future. It feels “too archived” and less vital than say Haydn, much less Mozart or Beethoven.
So many people are defending Luka on Twitter, but he doesn’t do much to make his teammates better. And why didn’t Jalen Brunson stick around on the Mavericks? “Who wants to play with you?” is an underrated metric for assessing player quality, not to mention hire quality more generally. Luka is on track to be one of the five (three?) greatest scorers of all time, but not one of the fifteen greatest players. (Are Kevin Durant and Kobe the other two? Is Dominique Wilkins another great scorer who also was less of a complete player?)
There are various rumors about Taylor Swift and her beau. But no one says “If those rumors were true, they would just admit it! I wouldn’t cost them anything in terms of income or endorsements.” That indicates there is still a significant shortage of tolerance and equal treatment in American society.
Fabio Caruana as an articulate thinker is very underrated.

Quite possibly Senegal is not a democracy any more.
The Chess Olympiad already (de facto) allows performance enhancers, though not computers.
Steakhouses are now underrated, most of all if you don’t order steak.
There is a (suddenly well-known) person on social media who so embodies modes of argumentation I find objectionable that at first I thought his was a parody account.
