No kidding.
The cheapest ticket (on the secondary market) to watch Jannik Sinner vs Carlos Alcaraz at Wimbledon today was selling for over $20,000. That makes it one of — if not the — most expensive sporting events ever.

This is pure gold. What a thread. Thank you @chrislowndes.
As we all look back at #LiveAid40, I would like to tell the story of my experience as a 20yo attending the Wembley show on 13 July 1985. These are never-before seen photos, taken on my Canon A1 with a 50mm lens from my position centre front in the crowd. 🧵

Went to watch Life in a Metro 2 last night. It was the longest musical video ever. The music literally sidelined and killed what otherwise could have been a decent sequel to Life in a Metro 1.

This is one great reason to switch to Comet.
First test of Perplexity's new agentic browser, Comet 👇. Comet authenticates into your accounts (e.g. email, calendar) to take actions on your behalf. It pulled a list of all my email newsletters, and unsubscribed from the specific ones I asked it to 🤯

This is the reality of GST.
@narendramodi I have to file more useless paperwork for our entity in India than all our other countries combined.

Loved this @TheKenWeb First Principles Podcast with Manish Sabharwal. The idea of creating great ancestors and problems of Indian ‘regulatory cholesterol’ were brilliant

NGL - I actually asked our raddiwala to give us newspapers so that I could have some to use when my shoes get wet.
The rainy season combo is here. Run in the rain followed with . kombing wet shoes with newspaper che bole, keeping them under the fan in full force. Fastest way to …dry out shoes, & quickest way to be reminded by (koff koff) others of the electricity cha bill.

It took Bangalore to help me wrap up a 10k after ages. Gorgeous weather but the traffic was shit

Where Priya Ramani writes about a movie, the Censor Board of India doesn't want you to watch it.

The last few days these guys have been popping up on my feed and for the first time I'm loving the @X algorithm.
In 1992, Adriano Tirazzi was a tour guide giving Vespa tours of the Amalfi Coast. Luca Ferrando was the company mechanic. Covered in grease and fixing scooters, a synth beat in his head kept his wrench turning to the rhythm. They had no training. No connections. No plan.
