It's quite sad to see Wales in this much of a mess. Rugby needs a good Welsh team and this is dire.

3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Some of the responses to this tell a story of how some people still only perceive pro wrestling as WWE and their connection to Trump and MAGA. And I’m not sure how we change that perception….but bloody hell we need to. I mean Brodie is outspokenly anti-ICE
Wow! What sounded like the entire AEW Dynamite audience in Las Vegas tonight chanted "Fuck ICE! Fuck ICE!" in unison before the main event

Manages to be a devastating critique of where find ourselves today. Astonishing

In my view this whole mandelson issue will end Starmer as PM…which (might) actually be the best thing for Labour

This is scandalous behaviour by @greenparty.org.uk, and Rob is owed an apology. People look at this sort of stuff and think it's evidence of scholars engaging in a partisan fashion, and not only is that a slight on Rob's professionalism, it also damages the field more generally.
Just a quick note to @greenparty.org.uk and @greenpartyhan.bsky.social - I was not consulted on being quoted on your leaflets and I have not endorsed your campaign (or any campaign in this seat). I think this note, like the bar chart next to it, is misleading and out of context.

Absolutely no fan of Badenoch (somewhat of an understatement) but she’s wiping the floor with Starmer at PMQs today

Ok just heard on the news that there’s been a serious incident on the De Montfort uni campus in Leicester. Trying to find out if everyone is ok, and hope my friends and old lecturers are safe.

I’m not sure that Charles Murray’s position on DEI comes entirely from an unbiased place…..
Forgive me, Jesus, because I genuinely deeply enjoy how perpetually unhappy and desolate these losers are.

Instead of conferring titles, gongs and baubles and then demanding those titles, gongs and baubles be removed…
…perhaps as a modern, mature polity we should have far fewer titles, gongs and baubles in the first place.

Spurs absolutely showed up in the 2nd half, and it’s fantastic to see the effort and spirit — 2-2 is a good result and we very nearly stole a win. Encouraging! But we desperately need transfers to cover for the endless injuries #COYS

I know the reason Spurs are better in Europe than PL is the quality of opposition. But maybe try white shorts at home in PL just in case it’s that.

What is happening in United States is what happens when coercive powers of the state - arrest, detention, charges - are used as ends in themselves, and not as means of serving justice.
They know the arrests and charges will not stick, but they don’t care.
Intimidation, like cruelty, is the point.
