Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I remember when a BBC documentary presented this image of what Jesus might have looked like, and when I saw it again ten years later, all my asshole brain could think was, "That looks more like Merseyside Jesus." 030
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 01/10/2026This is why Pachinko is legal in Japan, despite the fact that gambling is very much NOT legal. (Alt-text is available if you can't read this.) ADUG is operating Manchester City under this same concept. It's not breaking the *letter* of the law, so it must be okay. 100
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 30/09/2026This makes me nostalgic for that NCAA Tournament matchup between Bradley and Pittsburgh. 000
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 01/09/2026I have now skeeted two signings into existence. Fear my paging skills. FEAR THEM! 020
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 27/08/2026I've gotten embroiled in a Bsky discussion about the DSA, and it's suddenly occurred to me that the best thing the DSA can do right now is create more of these grandmothers. 020
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 27/08/2026So Italy, basically. Sure, I'm cool with co-ops over corporations, fair wages and profit sharing and all that. But is El-Sayed even going that far with his policy stance? Honestly, it feels like we're here with all this: 110
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 26/08/2026So yes, we should revere Dolly Parton for being a truly great musician and an even better human being. But dudes of a certain age, like me, will always revere that immaculate rack, too. Dolly wouldn't be Dolly without it, and it's another part of her legacy that should never, ever be whitewashed. 100
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 26/08/2026I saw Dolly Parton live once as a kid in the early 80s. She absolutely owned that stage. When Kenny Rogers started singing that Bob Seger song and Dolly came back out to join in, I promise you, all the cishet boys wished they were Kenny up there. "We've got tonight. Who needs Sheena Easton?" 100
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 26/08/2026And we did listen, even when she was doing silly shit with Sly Stallone. Dolly could make you look past her appearance and see what she REALLY had -- the ability to stop you in your tracks and hear the story she was telling. She could make you laugh or cry in equal parts, which was brilliant. 100
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Shit, you guys, I posted this joke here just last month. And yes, I'm injecting my own bias here, but I think the lady who dressed as a Playboy bunny at age 75 would have looked at this, smiled and said, "Hey, thanks for remembering." 120
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Me watching the Courage through most of that 2nd half. 131
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 16/07/2026Joe Meloetta, at the plate with the score tied and the bases loaded in the bottom of the 9th. 🦐 001
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 16/07/2026Technically, I could also be Joe Carmine, Joe Judge, Joe Lacey, Joe Damage Counters, or Joe Mega Greninja, but I'll go with the first one. 000
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 15/07/2026I missed the All-Star Game last night, but I did catch a highlight. 000
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 06/07/2026And from that day forward, CR7 was known only as Lula Molusco. I don't make the rules. H/T: @mattbrown.bsky.social #WorldCup 010
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 06/07/2026You get a lot of different perspectives in the big city. 000
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Guessing they based it on player ratings. Messi scored a goal and had plenty of SoG v. Vozinho getting 8 saves but ultimately shipping 3. Probably not fair to CV, but there it is. 010
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 30/06/2026Just a reminder that the USMNT absolutely smashed this side that just kicked Germany out of the #WorldCup. 000
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 23/06/2026Paging David Moyes. David Moyes, please pick up the blue courtesy phone. #USMNT #Everton 110
Tenth Key @tenthkey.bsky.social · 21/06/2026Ecuador is going to make me regret this Sorare selection, aren't they? 010
![From Wikipedia article on Pachinko: Gambling for cash is illegal de jure in Japan, but the widespread popularity of low-stakes pachinko in Japanese society has enabled a specific legal loophole allowing it to exist. Pachinko balls won from games cannot be exchanged directly for money in the parlor, nor can they be removed from the premises or exchanged with other parlors. However, they can be legally traded to the parlor for so-called "special prize" tokens (tokushu keihin (特殊景品) [ja]), which can in turn be "sold" for cash to a separate vendor off-premises. These vendors (ostensibly independent from, but often owned by, the parlor owner) then sell the tokens back to the parlor at the same price paid for them—plus a small commission, creating a cash profit—without technically violating the law.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:7vdkb2lasu2sj327n7rkqwjm/bafkreibmzjvv4mohtadotzqtvwxm4s5dot4sws6hdlct72y32ob7opbhxy)
