@scrumoftheearth.bsky.social I'm relatively new to rugby fandom. I have access to Peacock and Paramount so I can watch Six Nations and other big international events. What's the best streaming service to watch European teams like the French or Irish League teams from the US. Thanks!

Just wanted to say that this earned a follow, for whatever it's worth

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Every race. It’s basically been every race.

Governors. Mayors. Long-held GOP dog-catchers. School boards. Water boards. Flipped a dungeon master in a rural Iowa D&D club. State senators. State reps. A janitor in Duluth. State justices. Three GOP Uber drivers.

Just everything.

Same. I'd say it earned him a follow except I already was.

Check out the reporting in The Athletic the past few days. Guessing that's the reference.

Also, MLB dot TV is 3 for 3 in not starting games on time to start the season, at least on my Roku TV. That's not good. If anyone else is having these issues, the number is (866) 244-2291, call or text.

New York Yankees' Torpedo Bats Should Be Banned From Baseball | Deadspin.com The Yankees' controversial "torpedo" bats are dominating early in 2025, but their custom design raises fairness concerns for MLB. Should they be banned?

This is a pretty idiotic take. It ignores the fact that players in other teams have messed with similar bats over the last year or so.

It was cranky for me three hours ago but kicked in about fifteen minutes into the game. Really wild they can't figure this out.

Yeah. I know Ireland isn't Italy, but Ireland is going to have to show up for this one.

Ireland very fortunate to not lose an obvious trap match in Wales. Gotta think they'll have to play much better than they have thus far in the Six Nations to beat France.

I wonder how much today tipped toward who the Yankees want to win the position races. Nice to see Goldschmidt golf one for a double. Fingers crossed he'll be better than the last two years of Yankees at first.

Jeffries on GOP "bait & switch": "Part 1, talk about lowering the high cost of living but do nothing about it. Part 2, enact massive tax cuts for billionaires that will do nothing to improve the quality of life of everyday Americans. Part 3, stick working Americans with the bill for those tax cuts"

Sitting down to compose a hopeful message for 2025 is a tough ask given the year we’ve just had. Even glib sentiments are hard to come by. The defeat of pro-democracy forces in the US presidential election still weighs like a heavy anchor on my attempts to move on. 1/11

Mitt to me is short for mitten. Gloves have articulated fingers. First base and catcher use items that are more mitten than glove to me, so mitt.

Student created 6 journals of 10 stories depicting children and terrorism, based on research S did. Some depict the student as a participant, others as a bystander. Stories were set in a variety of countries & included a five page write up connecting research to choices made in creating the stories.
