#OtD 21 Oct 1948 brewery workers achieved concessions after over a week on wildcat strike against the sacking of 21 drivers. It appears that these drivers were reinstated. The union then ordered its members back to work but the strikers refused stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9432...

There's something about taking a 💩 at your parents' house.
Could be it reminds you of a simpler time.
Could be that you get revenge on all the times the old man stunk up the joint.

Or, Could be because they buy the premium TP.

Last night at some improv practice, we worked on "powering through whilst bombing".
No one was allowed to laugh while we ran through games & scenes.

It was good for new players to help build up some calluses.

I didn't really need it, as I have a lot of experience with no one laughing at my jokes.

from then on everyone knew
even a king could be killed
an illustration. A figure holds up a lantern and looks back over their shoulder as they walk into a forest at night. Light from the lantern illuminates them and a fox walking at their feet. There is a bag slung over their shoulder out of which a dagger peaks out of. There is a decorative border surrounding the image. On the sides are mushrooms and ferns. On top, two dead king skulls and a night sky. The bottom has flowers and text reading "from then on everyone knew, even a king could be killed."

Sep 11th - #TheDude writes this date on a check. Upon returning home, he was accosted by Treehorn's thugs. One of them peed on his rug.

📽️📅 The Big Lebowski (1998)
4 Screenshots from the movie "The Big Lebowski" (1998): First, a close-up of a hand writing a check for 69 cents at a grocery store counter, next to a Ralphs value club card and a messy checkbook full of scribbles. Second, a disheveled man in a bathrobe is forcefully grabbed by a thug with long blond hair, his head pushed toward a toilet. Third, a man stands with his back to the camera, urinating nonchalantly on a rug inside a dim apartment. Fourth, the main character sits on the toilet in his robe and t-shirt, looking distressed as an intruder looms over him, the bathroom cluttered with towels and worn wallpaper.

Hey, valentines. Let’s crush the bosses.

A photo of two symmetrical two story red brick rowhouses with a shared front porch and shared roof peak above the porch, both painted green. Tall trees throw dark shadows on the left of the two rowhouses, and a small gargoyle sits on the shared roof peak.
