The fact that there are only 12 cities with a population of more than a million people in a country the size of the US is endlessly fascinating
KUT Austin@KUT
Austin has been teetering at the 1 million population mark for years. New census numbers show it’s finally there. From @_AustinCurrent: kut.org/austin/2026-05…

If you could guarantee one player doesn’t win the PGA Championship, who would you pick?

@MatthewJWelty its accurate. in the mid-90s if you were wearing nike you were called poor.
English
i love when ppl just make stuff up and rewrite history. 30 years ago Champion made the NBA jerseys.
nostalgia core@nostalgiacore
Kids today have no idea that about 30 years ago, Champion was a cheap sports brand sold on the back shelves at K-Mart for around $1.99 a shirt and you got laughed at in school for wearing it

I was a kid in the 90s, and by the time I was 12 I had stayed at my friends houses hundreds of nights for sleepovers.
My friends stayed with me hundreds of nights for sleepovers.
Video games. Making home movies. Snacks. Bewshittin'.
My sons are 8 and 12 and neither of them have ever been to a sleepover. Neither of them have ever tried to get one cooking at my house.
And don't get me wrong - I do NOT want other kids at my house. But I wouldn't deny my kids the opportunity to make those memories.
Are sleepovers just not a thing anymore? What is going on?

@RapidResponse47 I, for one, am grateful to live in a country with an independent judiciary, where judges are expected to rule based on what the law says rather than loyalty to any one man. The beauty of America 🇺🇸
English
@AndrewBrandt Honest question though. What does this cost every New York tax payer a year to build this new stadium?
English
Paid for with $850 million from public funding.
Socialize cost, privatize profit.

Buffalo will open its new Highmark Stadium on Thursday Night Football in week two, when the Bills host the Lions.

@montepulcino @nicknactax @nickysmokess The whole “if you can’t afford it, then don’t buy it” argument completely misses the point when something is objectively overpriced. Regardless of what someone makes, $15 for a warm draft beer is a fucking joke.
English
@nicknactax @ericr319 @nickysmokess Well that makes sense with the cost of rent and everything else in manhattan, but how does that justify these prices at a golf event? One has nothing to do with the other.
English
Price gouging at sporting events is one of the biggest sins in America.

@nicknactax @nickysmokess nobody is paying $15 drafts at local bars.
English
@nickysmokess Or if you can't afford to go and experience an event...don't go.
Also, these aren't bad. In fact, they are cheaper than most of my local bars.
Golf bros are a cancer...we need to gatekeep golf.

@favoritetechgal @NoContextHumans My wife would kill me if I chose her over our kids and I would do the same.

@NoContextHumans kids over wife and its not close. but also wife over mother and its not close.

Hot take but does Brady really belong on this
Kalshi Football@KalshiFB
The TB Buccaneers Mt. Rushmore. Agree?
English
@Breesoverrated Brady is the ONLY reason TB has their second Super Bowl.
English
Replace Brady with Ronde. 3 seasons doesn't get you on Mt. Rushmore foh
Kalshi Football@KalshiFB

@robbysoave you cannot earn it. but you CAN just deserve something for no reason.
English
This is just abjectly false from beginning to end. What she's doing here is trying to provide a moral justification for mass wealth confiscation, since in her view it is never earned legitimately.
Marco Foster@MarcoFoster_
AOC: “There’s a certain level of wealth and accumulation that is unearned. You can’t earn a billion dollars. You just can’t earn that. You can get market power, you can break rules, you can abuse labor laws, you can pay people less than what they’re worth, but you can’t earn that”

@billybinion Bezos isn't Superman, I don't even like him, but he's created more jobs and given more families an opportunity than Sanders ever has. Sanders does one thing, goes on TV and says the same "the wealth disparity in this country..." shtick, and moves on.
English
It’s wild how distorted the debate around Bezos is. It completely glosses over the millions of jobs he created & the miracle that is Amazon. I get why it’s shocking to see someone drop a lot of money on a home—I’m not rich either. But this man is hardly a leech.
English
This is gross. Jeff Bezos created something that made goods far cheaper & easier to access. Politicians like Bernie Sanders can try to turn him into a cartoon villain for clicks, but Bezos has objectively done more for mankind than Bernie ever will.
Sen. Bernie Sanders@SenSanders
The reality of American life today: Jeff Bezos, worth $290 billion, spent: $10 million on the Met Gala $120 million on a penthouse $500 million on a yacht Meanwhile, he‘s planning to throw 600,000 Amazon workers out on the streets and replace them with robots. Unacceptable.
English
@billybinion Politicians like Bernie Sanders create value by giving people someone to blame. Instead of building businesses, creating jobs, or producing anything tangible, they survive politically by painting people like Jeff Bezos as villains and keeping the public angry at a target.
English
@FBallAnalysisYT Posey maybe. Posey and Lester are the only two even deserving of consideration in any year.
English
Maybe this is a hot take, but I don’t think any of these guys should get in first ballot

@magicsincemac crazy it would still be sunday if there are still potential first round games going on. no series should start until a round is over.
English
Best case would be: Magic win, Cavs lose, we get two extra days
Sam Amico@AmicoHoops
If Cavs and Magic both win tonight, Game 1 of second round is Sunday in Cleveland. If either loses, Game 1 of that side of bracket (Cavs, Raptors, Pistons, Magic) is Tuesday in TBD.

@ericr319 Saying this when Goga is on the same team as him is insane.
