The furor over 2026 World Cup ticket prices raised a fascinating question:
How did sports tickets get so expensive in the United States — all while remaining relatively modest in the UK, Europe & elsewhere?

MORPHEUS: They're coming for you, Neo. I can guide you, but you must do exactly as I say. Take the elevator to the lobby and go to the CVS across the street. Purchase 5 Steam gift cards at $200 each. Scratch off the protective coating on the back and tell me the fifteen digit redemption codes. Hurry

On this day 175 years ago, the first edition of The Oregonian hit the streets of Portland.
If all had gone to plan, the newspaper would have celebrated its 175th anniversary last month. But when its printing press never arrived, Dryer suspected sabotage!

Jamal Khashoggi was a WaPo columnist when he was murdered inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul at the direction of the Saudi government. The entire world condemned it, except Trump. This wasn’t “things happen.” It was a state-sanctioned assassination for exercising free speech.

It is very funny that this Pope is just going to get jerseys from now on. Everyone decided that's what this Pope likes and that is it. It's like if your grandmother got you a puzzle for Christmas one year and you said you liked it so your entire extended family is like "oh that's the puzzle kid"
Spike Lee just blessed Pope Leo with a custom Knicks jersey during his visit to the Vatican, just one week after the Pope was gifted a custom Chicago Bulls one.
