I've watched about 111 minutes of football at Edgar Street this season and we've conceded six goals in that time 😂

Oh hey, the "ceasefire" was total bullshit, as anyone with even a modicum of pattern recognition could have predicted
“Israeli” ceasefires only ever apply to the other party. They’ll continue to kill whomever they want, whenever they want until they are stopped. They see themselves as occupying an altogether different moral plane than their enemies, like any colonizer.

My friend sent me the Brand New UK tour dates last night. Pretty depressing that they'll easily sell out those huge venues despite the front man admitting to being a nonce.

Very jealous of everyone Wales away in Kazakhstan right now. On the plus side the early start means I can watch it with my kids at least.

This, from the Quakers, is a pretty good example of how to resist pressure from bigot lobbying groups. Effectively “we legally can allow trans people to use the loo, we morally should, and we tried it and nothing bad happened”

PSA: the current Cymru home footy shirt is down to £20 on JD Sports website now. Absolute steal.
The current away is £30.
So I've ordered both for less than the (insane) RRP of £75.

Just had a friend to stay and we drank some very good, predominantly German, beer. Bonus Dark Element IPA that he opened thinking it was a lager 😂 #bskybeer

I play *jazz music* and I’m able to gather more people than some of these, on a weeknight. It’s honestly a joke. The uk press are reporting a wag-the-dog style Fake War. Truly remarkable.
Sunday protests seem to be < 500 nationwide, maybe < 300, across 4-6 locations
Yet ITV news using language of "erupt nationwide" (!)
Epping: 100-150
London: 20
Birmingham: 30
Stevenage: 30-50
Norwich: ? anything of any scale
Manchester: ? anything of any scale
Dudley: ? anything of any scale?

It is pretty noticeable that even as mainstream opinion on Israel and Gaza finally shifts, you don’t hear the Responsible Adults apologizing for punishing all the college kids protesting the atrocities. Quite the opposite in fact!

Most of the internet used to be like this. This is actually the default, it took companies enclosing the internet and adding weird, soul-killing incentives to make people behave the way they do now. In a way, there is truly nothing special about Wikipedia except that it survived longer.

Road deaths are a policy choice.
Helsinki (pop 657,000) has not had a single traffic death during the last twelve months.

Germany gave people €1,200/month no strings attached.
They kept working, slept better, switched to better jobs, and even gave more to others.
Turns out, when people aren’t drowning, they swim further.

If you check the Eurostar network map on the info screens at St. Pancras it still shows Waterloo as the departure point. The Eurostar terminal at Waterloo closed in 2007!
