A billionaire says I’ll give you a green bank, you just help me skirt the NBA’s salary cap. Who says no? #nba #pablotorre

National Literacy Institute: 21% of adults in the US were illiterate as of 2024. 54% of US adults have a literacy below a 6th-grade level (20% are below 5th-grade level). Worldwide the US ranks 36th in literacy. This is horrifying. It also explains a lot.

When that kid who yelled racial slurs in class then claimed “freedom of speech” to the teacher giving them detention announces their bigotry and ignorance on the national stage

Watching the Knicks defense allow Tatum to go full court in four dribbles and yam one play -> to then completely smothering Tatum on the last play of the game the next… convinces me that was more of an offensive screw up than great defense

Weather and climate research funds are being “chainsawed” from NOAA's budget. Last I checked, Louisiana & Florida, which are maximally susceptible to Hurricanes, voted Red in the last General Election. Wondering if residents there knew in advance this would happen.

Crockett: Instead of the President cosplaying as the next pope, he may want to cosplay as an actual President of these United States. That means he may have to do a little bit of research and understand that he swore a an oath to defend and protect the constitution.

This is a such a great thread. A lot of times people put me on lists of "actually good male role models" which always makes me a little uncomfortable because very little of what I do speaks to the insecurity and fear young men have and sometimes I feel pretty guilty about that.

This is K2-18b. It’s a planet outside of our solar system, about 2 1/2 times the size of earth, orbiting a small red dwarf star. The James Webb space telescope spent time studying this planet via spectroscopy and determined it has gases in its atmosphere that are only created through biology!

Donald Trump is deporting legal US residents to a foreign gulag, and he has stated publicly that he is moving on to citizens next. This is a Constitutional crisis. Will a single Republican stand up for our Constitution?

Ja Morant’s new celebrations are what we want @nba.com What we DON’T want is this dude publicly wielding actual firearms. Draw the line and respect it. Fining a viral celebration is the wishy washy BS fans don’t like about the NBA these days #grizzlies #nba
