The median ticket price for Sunday’s Super Bowl is $7,497.

I don’t even want to know what a beer costs.

But even if you want to go to a regular-season sporting event, tickets and concession prices will cost you a small fortune.

Here’s one thing we can do about it.

Good.

Hiding the names of people asking for 10 year old girls is fucking disgusting.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.

He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

For years, a cottage industry of political observers has contorted itself to obscure and occlude the obvious. That regardless of what others see in him, Trump’s entire political career — from his embrace of birtherism to his hatred of birthright citizenship — cannot be understood outside the context of his bitter, deep-seated racism. Trump is not profound. He has been the same person this whole time. The question is why so many others have refused to see what he has never bothered to hide.

This, from @jamellebouie.net is exactly right. And I think so many folks have refused to see or admit what Trump is because admitting implicates them, or their families, so denial is easier.

Epstein survivors placed an ad for Super Bowl Sunday to assert they will not move on from the Jeffrey Epstein rape trafficking case and to demand full accountability, transparency around his network and crimes. #OpDeathEaters #EpsteinCoverup #EpsteinFiles

BREAKING: Madman President Promotes Racist Video of the Obamas as Apes Trump’s policies and actions are fueled by explicit racism and election denial. The Obama-ape video encompasses both.

"According to sources...video and photo posts to the president’s Truth Social account go through layers of approval. Trump signs off on the content posted, but he often does not find...these clips himself...it takes a village...to create the federal government’s racist propaganda operation."

A racist screenshot of Michelle and Barack Obama

Last night, Trump posted a video to his social media platform that contained a racist clip showing Barack and Michelle Obama as monkeys. It's still up:

Defiant beauty of jingle dress dance in Minneapolis. Indigenous resistance also at forefront vs ICE in Portland, OR since last summer (& all the way back to Portland 2018 Occupy Ice.) @cozca.bsky.social & other Indigenous defenders have been arrested by Feds for dancing/ceremonies at Portland ICE.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · 49m I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated.

Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.

INBOX: Washington Post Ukraine Correspondent Lizzie Johnson announces that she has been laid off in the middle of a below-freezing war zone without power, heat, or running water.

I want to laugh at it but sadly it’s true.

"Nearby, a six-year-old wondered if the unicorn she saw marching earlier was ok. "

In the novelization of "Doctor Who: Mythmakers", Menelaus tells Agamemnon that he really didn't care if Helen ran away and he wishes Aggie had asked him about that 20 years earlier because they could have avoided a huge fuss.

Report: Education Department's "efficiency" layoffs cost at least $28 million Roughly half its civil rights employees were fired. Almost all complaints were thrown out.

The Department of Education gutted its civil rights staff—only to spend tens of millions recalling them.

Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.

Meanwhile, thanks to his new Tesla pay package, Elon Musk could stand to make $3 billion more per year than all 1.4 million elementary school teachers in the U.S. combined.
