This Day in Labor History: December 1, 1868. A young black former Union soldier named John Henry was among a group of convicts sent from Richmond to West Virginia to blast a railroad tunnel, where he would soon die. Let's talk about the real John Henry!!!

I named my fists Monty and Python because you are about to join a Flying Circus.
I named my fists Common and Sense because I'm about to bring the Paine
I named my fists Blood and Meridian because I’m fixing to Judge your ass.

A photodump (spoiler free!) of Q.U.B.E. 2 shots, taken on an Xbox Series X. A great puzzle game developed by Toxic Games that never really gets too hard, and has beautiful lighting, puzzle design, and a colorful aesthetic that make it a joy to play. #thinkygame #xbox 1/7

Do you like puzzle games (well, puzzle video games)? Particularly those like Portal & Q.U.B.E. - which I am actually replaying today! j- give this one a gander. It deserves more attention : ) #thinkygame

Tough to move from the intensity of the MIN/SEA shootout to the CIN/CLB game ... but the Hell Is Real match is coming close. You want to know why I watch MLS Playoffs? This. Just awesome, intense, edge-of-your-seat drama. #MLS

Today’s Google Maps jersey search is Bangkok, Thailand. It took a good 5 minutes (so many big, empty highways!) to locate this 2012 Arsenal FC home jersey, taken in November 2024. More Arsenal abroad fans out there than perhaps one would think? #jerseyaday #football #arsenal

Back to Dakar, Senegal for today’s Google Maps football jersey. This dapper-looking gentleman has an AS Roma shirt (technically I don’t think this is a jersey as it is missing the advertising) bearing Morgan de Sanctis’ name & number, so at latest from 2016. Photo from April ‘23. #jerseyaday

Today’s Google Maps football jersey search is Rio de Janeiro, Brazil! I cheated a little and went to a football stadium first to see if anyone was wearing their kit, and this fan did not disappoint: a 2023 Vasco de Gama FC home jersey from May 2024. #jerseyaday #football

Today’s Google Maps football jersey search is Johannesburg, South Africa, and took a good 10 minutes to find this very clean-looking 2018 Al Hilal home jersey at 79 De Villiers St from 12/2023. A Saudi league jersey in South Africa? Definitely not on my Jersey bingo card! #jerseyaday #football

RIP Dave. The Grid remains timelessly genius, and you will be missed.

This is the slippery slope to US citizens being killed without trial. You may not agree, but once this type of non-citizen murder is accepted in the name of the “National good” there is only one inevitable outcome, and it is lawlessness where only results matter.
Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

Today’s Google Maps football jersey search took about 15 seconds in Dakar, Senegal! A 2021 FC Bayern Munich away jersey in black taken in February 2022 … not entirely what I expected to see first (and so quickly!) on this effort. Proof that Bayern has fans everywhere? #football #jerseyaday
