Spurs continue theme nights 'fostering inclusivity and belonging'
Even as some companies have fallen in line with the Trump Administration's efforts to roll back DEI, the Spurs' schedule includes a Pride Night and nights to honor women, Blacks and Hispanics.

Trump is like a child constantly testing boundaries: First, he jokes about doing the bad thing. Next, he tries a little bit of the bad thing. Finally, he outright does and says the bad thing. With no consequences, why would he ever stop?

This is exactly why I support the Verge. It’s one of the only outlets supporting real journalism on tech.
Just to be blunt, if you want Wired and 404 and The Verge to employ reporters who understand the memes on bullet casings and can connect them to gaming culture while having the legal and support resources to deal with waves of harassment when we do it… you have to subscribe and pay for the work
the entire media ecosystem is just not built or ready for events like this and far right billionaires like larry ellison buying news orgs will only make this worse

There is no compromise policy Democrats can offer Republicans to make them act normal on this issue. We simply have to state the basic reality — immigrants contribute to our country in myriad ways — and fight for it. I don't know how so many journalists convinced themselves this isn't an option.

I love how the best case scenario that Cuban lays out here is that billionaires are just constantly getting scammed out of tens of millions of dollars and don't care.

A livable future has to be anchored to "public goods shared in common and distributed to everyone.” That's socialism so USians are mostly allergic to the idea and to me THAT is what needs to be changed and addressed.
