Suspension coming, yeah? Or are we just going to add this to the 118 charges thing?
Manchester City midfielder Rodri claimed it was clear “people” do not want the club to win due to their past successes but that referees must remain “neutral” after taking issue with a decision during Sunday’s draw with Tottenham Hotspur.

The extent to which Labour has doubled down on a transphobia policy that it didn’t run on, and was bounced into by a Supreme Court ruling that woefully misunderstood the intent of the law, is genuinely shocking to me. I know there will be an “I told you so” but I don’t think this was foreseeable.

Truly a startling amount of my adult life has been Company A merging with ShitAssMegaCorp B and promising it will be epic for Consumers And Fans and it hasn't been. Far from it in fact. It hasn't been epic at all.

Listened to a Comfort Blanket podcast I'd, for whatever reason, missed previously - something really joyous about listening to @gralefrit.bsky.social and @athenakugblenu.bsky.social break down Keeping Up Appearances, and what made it work.

"I've never been murdered in my own home before," said Stan Besure, 52, "So I figure that I'm beating the system by staying in and watching Mrs Brown's Boys".
Police later confirmed that the call was in fact coming from inside the house.

Skipping to the end of Andrew's entertaining (if that's the right word) thread about the '20-minute' AI courses, and once again we're just being shown that politicians are among the least qualified people to talk about, and legislate for modern tech.
They're drinking the snake oil at this point.

This government clearly don't really understand the complexity or the danger of the situation. They show no sign of beginning to understand, and every sign of asking the monorail salesman how public transport should work. It's going to be an uphill struggle, but don't leave this to politicians.

The Athletic going same way as so many other subscription services and introducing ads (into its podcasts).
Doubtless a 'pay more to remove ads again' tier will appear in the near future.
Bundled 'European Edition' into Totally Football show feed too.
Small but shitty changes.

Teams call with a new co-worker earlier today, first thing I see behind him is a @stanchow.bsky.social picture.
Cue 15 minutes of talking about what art we have on our respective office walls.

Idk I kinda think we should bring beliefs like this back. Tell them we gotta fix global warming asap or the Leviathan will escape. We gotta sacrifice another billionaire to the ocean or the harvest will be bad and food will get more expensive
a not insignificant number of people on Threads seem to believe the snow storm was The Government's attempt to refreeze the Leviathan, the world-eating serpent, which was getting loose (to eat the world, I assume)
