@thenba.space this @okcthunder.bsky.social game is ridiculous. I just want to watch basketball, but the refs want to watch Memphis shoot free throws I guess. This level of inconsistency is what turns people off from watching the NBA.

'Unthinkable': Trump FTC Chair Shuts Down Public Comments on Corporate Pricing Tactics | Common Dreams "Chairman Ferguson could have done any number of things to actually lower the cost of living and create opportunities for American businesses and workers," said one Democratic FTC commissioner. "He…

Trump's FTC chair Andrew Ferguson, whose first act was to "end DEI" at the agency, has shut down public comments on predatory pricing and other shady corporate tactics.

The GOP’s nonsensical culture war is meant to distract you from corporate corruption and plunder.

Nothing like telling my Latino ex-husband we need to hyphenate our daughters name so she can go by my maiden more white sounding name if she needs to because we live in a very bad place. #justamericanthings

I can't believe there's people finding out about THE ODYSSEY because of the new Nolan film and complaining about spoilers. Sir please it was written almost 3000 years ago what spoilers are you talking about.

Kroger and Albertsons claimed they wanted to merge into one grocery giant in order to keep prices low.

But after the merger was blocked, they approved spending a combined $10 billion on stock buybacks.

They each paid their CEOs over $15 million in 2023, by the way.

Hello?

copaganda glosses over the fact that most police departments have awful clearance rates and the ones they do clear are usually shit like β€œwe found the husband standing over his wife’s body holding a gun”

so when their investigative powers are actually in the spotlight they don’t hold up so well

The Arctic Ocean could see its first ice-free day as early as 2027, with a likely window within 9-20 years after 2023. This won’t bring dramatic change overnight, but it marks a fundamental shift in the Arctic’s natural environmentβ€”a stark warning about climate change. #ActOnClimate

The Biden admin has lied to congress about what it knew, that Israel was in fact blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza. Two separate government bodies told them.

I repeat, in very clear terms: the Biden admin knew that Israel was starving children and lied about it.
