This NBA preseason schedule makes no sense. Wolves have 6 games, while most other teams have 4 or 5. And the Knicks have a back-to-back? What is the point of that?

It just feels like less work watching the Wolves. Light and fun, without losing the winning spirit. Should be a fun season!

The biggest problem with The Social Reckoning is there wasn’t really a reckoning. It was infuriating to watch and think how little has actually changed. Maybe the Social Evasion is a better title?

I do get why this makes sense, but it also feels like a bit of a kick in the teeth to fans to retire his jersey on the night Boston is here.

This needs to be stopped. We don’t need more data centers, especially in residential areas. You can see all the apartment and condos in this picture that will be massively affected!

This will be the easiest finals to cheer for (barring the Wolves ever getting there). Kat deserves a title and I really hope he gets it. What he brought to Minnesota in both play and community can’t be overstated. Never thought I’d cheer for them, but Go Knicks!

Jaden McDaniels did nothing wrong. He thought the Nuggets were still playing defense. He couldn't tell the difference.

Trump: "We have a thing called a war, or as they would rather say, a military operation. It's for legal reasons. Because as a military operation, I don't need any approvals. As a war you're supposed to get approval from Congress. Something like that. So I call it a military operation."

An ICE agent shoots and kills Renee Nicole Good. No charges. No accountability. But Black elected civil rights leaders like Nekima Levy Armstrong, peaceful protesters, and elected officials in Minnesota are targeted. This is political retribution and a weaponization of our justice system.

The vicious cycle of monopolization: 1) Corporations argue that their growth is just part of the free market. 2) Use their monopoly power to gouge consumers. 3) Take a portion of their profits to make political donations. 4) Lobby against antitrust enforcement. 5) Repeat.
