Tiny Cape Verde shocks European champions Spain with a 0-0 draw in the country's first World Cup match. cnn.it/4eIwJGx

Personal takeaway from the World Cup is that Texas should do a statewide bid for the Olympics

"TEXAS IS GOOD EVERYTHING IS BIG"

In America, a warehouse store. A fully roasted chicken costs five dollars, the raw chicken beside it costs seven, and I stood between them like a man between two truths. Golden. Hot. Seasoned. Spinning in glory under the lights, in a line of its brothers. Four dollars and ninety-nine cents. I checked the raw birds. Seven dollars. Pale. Cold. You must do everything yourself. This is not commerce. Commerce does not move backward. Somewhere in this building, mathematics lies defeated. I asked the man at the counter. "How is the cooked bird cheaper than the raw bird?" "Been five bucks forever. They keep it that way." "But the store loses." "Yep. On purpose." On purpose. I held my receipt with both hands. In my land, a lord who lowered the price of rice in a hard winter was remembered for generations. They built him a small shrine. This store does it every day, with chicken, and tells no one. A woman behind me grew tired of my reverence. "It's just a chicken, sir." It is not just a chicken. It is a wound the merchant takes on purpose, so that anyone, on any day, with five dollars, eats like a lord. The bird is the message. The price is the vow. I will confess: I bought two. I did not need two. The second was not hunger. It was gratitude, and it was delicious. Some prices are not prices. They are promises. I return every week now. I take one bird. I bow toward the deli, briefly, so as not to alarm the staff. They have begun nodding back. The vow holds. The bird turns. Five dollars. Long may it spin.

First in @TexasTribune: National Democrats @DLCC are looking to flip 12 Texas House seats this cycle in a newly expanded battleground list. A dozen flips would put Democrats one seat shy of an even split in a chamber they haven't held since 2003. #txlege texastribune.org/2026/06/03/…

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN) saying “homosexuality has no place in America.” “Well, I think for all of recorded history that homosexuals have been part of humanity, and you know, I got to say, I'm quite libertarian by nature. I think the behavior of consenting adults is their business.” Source: TMZ
