FIRST WIN OF THE SEASON BABY GO BLAZERS

was just skimming through old footage and found this ruthless moment in 1970s baseball broadcasting

Thoughts, @treblaw.bsky.social?

The Bundesliga table as of 29/08/25 shows FC St Pauli top with four point after two games. The other teams have only played one game.

The @uaw.org has claimed a narrow victory in a union election at the BlueOval battery plant in Kentucky, a historic win.

The tally is 526-515 for unionization.

Ford is contesting 41 ballots, a challenge the union is urging them to drop.

Somebody on LinkedIn said what we're all thinking.

The Cincy brawl outrage ain't genuine "Holly the working mother," turned out to be a Russian national who fled the country before being "in contact" with Ohio's leading Republican gubernatorial candidate.

Today’s Rooster:

💥 How did Vivek Ramaswamy “contact” a Russian woman named “Holly” after she fled the country hours after the Cincy brawl?

💥Ramaswamy’s long-standing private plane addiction

💥Jeff Epstein’s ❤️BFF🥰 donates to House Finance chairman

FYI for those who don't know: NBA players have in their contract that the players (ie LABOR) gets 50% of all basketball related income. WNBA players get ~9%.

Local CEO caught CHEATING at Phillies game?!

An update: management has chosen not to recognize our Product, Engineering, and Humble Bundle colleagues as part of IGNCG, instead insisting on a time-consuming NLRB hearing, which took place last week.

Help us spread the word: we will not be divided. We are IGN, and we will always stand together.

Great work by the Human Access Project making Audrey McCall Beach (east end of Hawthorne Bridge) a real thing.

This is correct. Any candidate cynically “triangulating” on trans kids is a non-starter, and now is the time to say so. There’s still so much time to advance candidates that DON’T suck.

Columbus Education Association in the Statehouse with an original protest. Going to every offending Senator’s office and educating members about their various misdeeds.

Seeing the dramatic response by police to what should have been a simple compromise with no real impact on them is very jarring. Imagine if the PPB came to the table and OFFERED the dollars instead (that they truly do not need) to save parks—the easiest optics & political win. Missed opportunity!

The hysteria around uncreasing a budget over $300m by a measley $2m to literally save our parks from deteriorating is very cringe. Police staffing literally doesn't change and they received their base budget plus their COLA. They will be fine for one year while we protect our parks from closing! 🫠

A doughnut graph showing voting results. Shall the CPPW authorize a strike. YES 92% NO 8%

City of Portland Professional Workers Union members vote 92% to authorize a strike. 88% turnout.
A powerful signal to the City to settle our contract now.

After over 400 days of bargaining the City of Portland is still refusing to give CPPW members pay and job protections equivalent to other City unions. Strike vote begins today, ends 5/21.

They literally alternate days they are open during the week because it's basically the same menu.

Best fried chicken you'll ever get at an Italian restaurant.

also shit like this is a reminder why flight attendant's unions have the power to collapse this country. they are critical first responders. nothing moves without them and when shit goes wrong they save so many lives.

Instead of having playoffs, the college football championship should be between the best college team and the worst NFL team. If the college team wins, they get to become an NFL franchise, and the NFL team has to become a university.

We were on strike. Back on Monday.

Fun fact about the band Fugazi: despite being the most popular act in the “post-hardcore” genre, they were hilariously bad at business, selling tickets for way below the normal price and not even bothering to sell merchandise. If one of them had taken a business class they might be millionaires!
