I recommend for everyone to go justice.gov and search the Epstein files for Steve Bannon May and read the first PDF. It's... Interesting. In fact, searching for Steve Bannon throws up a LOT of interesting files. (And these aren't related to the paedophile stuff, they're mainly political messages)

Dalot should absolutely have had a straight red, not even in question. To be fair, he should have been sent off in many games I've seen Utd play lately, he's a nasty player. He seems to enjoy knocking people out of the air with force which, imo, should be an instant red.

Spurs really are a bunch of thugs. Refs need to clamp down on this. Having seen them attacking Liverpool the other week, it's no surprise to see them yet again kicking Villa all over the park. And also no surprise to see the refs failing to stop it.

Still, good result, onwards and upwards #UTV

Emery has completely turned this season round in a way I could never have imagined. Absolutely incredible. And given our financial constraints it's just borderline miraculous.

@virtualastro.bsky.social My six year old daughter just made a puppet show with her teddies wearing eclipse glasses and watching a solar eclipse. Think she was inspired by your Night Sky Show!

The ending of Celebrity Traitors was proper *chef's kiss*

I nearly fell off my sofa laughing. Amazing.

Dear all electric car manufacturers. I DO NOT want to have to specify a departure time when setting a timed charge. I just want to make the best use of cheaper electricity when available. Stop this nonsense of forcing departure times, it's infuriating and annoying and unnecessary.

A brilliant and fascinating article about extreme online culture and its relevance to the events of the past few days. Can't say I fully understand all of it, but it goes to show how far out of the loop law enforcement and mainstream media are.

Caught up yesterday on two "scifi" films that I'd not gotten round to watching: Section 31 and The Rise Of Skywalker.

So that was fun.

Absolutely gutted. RIP Ozzy. I will forever treasure that final concert at Villa Park. I feel so lucky to have been able to attend. The willpower he must have had to put in that performance is... hard to comprehend. #BlackSabbath #OzzyOsbourne

What a mess this building is. Two years of repairs in and they're repainting all the steels yet again.

Woooowwwwww! Nuno was the show star, Steven Tyler shocked everyone with one of the absolute best sets of the day, Ozzy was in surprisingly good voice, got to see Papa V for a second time this year and just generally it was a totally awesome event. Woooop! #BlackSabbath #BackToTheBeginning #Ghost

Bran Dailor, wow, already set the bar for this concert! Amazing stuff from one of my favourite drummers

K2-18b is back in the news, now with a bold claim that biosignature molecules (DMS and/or DMDS) have been 'detected at 3σ'.

Most exoplanet astronomers are extremely sceptical about these claims, let's see why (1/n).
