They not only stop selling beer in the seventh but they straight up run out of food and stop serving anything. We were drinking bathroom sink water out of nacho helmets.

Kinda hoping one of the batters is going to have a fourteen-pitch at-bat and everyone just goes on strike.

I didn't tune in to the game until it was in extra innings, and was like "man, I missed out on all the baseball!"

Turns out there was at least half a game of baseball I did not miss out on.

I'm listening to the game and watching the ESPN box score, so I might be full of shit, but it *sounds* like Bazardo was dealing.

They chose instead to go after trans ppl, to cut benefits, to demonise migrants, to appease the Far Right - things that no one who voted Labour voted for.

Labour decided that what they had to do is (fail to) defeat Reform when they actually had to reward the anti-Tory vote with non-Tory policies.

I was going to curse you for speaking this into existence, but then I remembered what's implied as a precondition for it happening.
