"How much does it cost to get more information about a cop who punched someone in the face? If you guessed anything lower than $2.5 million, you’d be wrong — at least according to the city of Eugene." More from FPF's @laurenleharper.bsky.social in @theintercept.com:

Getting in and out of U.S. Bank Stadium on a Sunday will probably run you at least a couple hundred bucks. But for these Vikings fans, the price tag for showing up for their ride-or-die team is negligible.

mprnews.org

Costs add up quickly for Vikings fans, who spend hundreds to even thousands on the team each year

The NFL generates billions of dollars each year. How much are Vikings fans spending each game?

Whether we like it or not, the Bible matters. It’s like how Shakespeare matters, and the Bible matters in that sense. So it’s a cultural icon, whether you believe it or not. But certainly, it’s not the divine word of God.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

Subverting democracy isn't new to John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, or Amy Coney Barrett. All three were on George W. Bush's "Florida Recount Team," which lay the groundwork for stopping vote counting in Florida—and Bush v. Gore, the politically-motivated SCOTUS decision that gave Bush the election.
