Has there been any fiction feature film that has used the attempted coup in Spain in 1981 as its background? #spanishhistory #modernhistory

Any law firm filing sharpie-redacted documents in the year 2023 deserves to lose every single client and should be forced to complete 400 mandatory CLE hours on how to use technogy made after like 2006.
Sony accidentally spilled confidential information on Call of Duty's revenue and PlayStation in a court document by making deficient redactions with a Sharpie (The Verge)

The "you voted against it" tweets are one of the best emerging trends on this otherwise hellsite.

I’d love to go back to 1987 and tell all my Smiths fan friends who gave me all kinds of shit for not being a Smiths fan that by the 2020s not only would Morrissey have been cast into outer darkness as a bitter old racist, but Rick Astley would be the coolest motherfucker alive

Thanks bigots, no more hockey fights cancer Jersey, no military jersey , no st patty’s jersey, no Red Cross jersey
All because you can’t handle a pride jersey. Major fundraising jersey sales are now gone. Good job
From NHL Board of Governors: teams will not wear specialty jerseys in warmups next season. Also: Cap, Ottawa, Arizona and other topics. With Commissioner Gary Bettman here — sportsnet.ca/nhl/video/bettm…

Anthony Bourdain said: "Eat at a local restaurant tonight. Get the cream sauce. Have a cold pint at 4 o’clock in a mostly empty bar. Go somewhere you’ve never been. Listen to someone you think may have nothing in common with you. Order the steak rare. Eat an oyster. Have a negroni. Have two. Be open to a world where you may not understand or agree with the person next to you, but have a drink with them anyways. Eat slowly. Tip your server. Check in on your friends. Check in on yourself. Enjoy the ride." Still good advice.

The whole 🧵. I remember the pamphlets dropped in the Kiss and Rock Horror sections of the record store where I worked. Don't bother to engage, clean up their mess and eventually they go away. Engagement was futile for all the reasons in this thread.
Where's a @nypost headline writer when you need one?

August 8, 1982. A line drive foul ball hits a four year old boy in the head at Fenway. Jim Rice, realizing in a flash that it would take EMTs too long to arrive and cut through the crowd, sprang from the dugout and scooped up the boy.
He laid the boy gently on the dugout floor, where the Red Sox medical team began to treat him.
When the boy arrived at the hospital 30 minutes later, doctors said, without a doubt that Jim's prompt actions saved the boy's life. Jim returned to the game in a blood-stained uniform. A real badge of courage.
After visiting the boy in the hospital, and realizing the family was of modest means, he stopped by the business office and instructed that the bill be sent to him.
This is what a sports Hero looks like! ❤
