Buggering off for the next four years. Ciao
Dude’s not even on the Tour anymore and can still produce magic of old and fill Rod Laver Arena. Good to have you back, Federer.

Wikipedia turns 25 today! 🎂📚
To celebrate, we’re looking back at its baby pictures—some of the earliest captures of the site, preserved in the #WaybackMachine.
Take a nostalgic peek at early Wikipedia ⤵️

There’s an Andre Agassi docuseries coming to Apple TV+. Cannot wait! Agassi was one of my favourite players as a kid in the 90s. I remember watching the 1992 Wimbledon Men’s Final vs Ivanisovic and bugged my parents to buy me his racquet!

Lather, rinse, repeat. France has been stuck in neutral since the late 1970’s after “les 30 glorieuses”. Plus ça change…
This is a bad time for France to be in such a political mess. One should not spare from blame the voters, who keep choosing the most irresponsible politicians
France is paralysed, and everyone is to blame
The budgetary impasse is just one symptom of collective political uselessness

Did he fall and whack his head? Zahawi is exactly the person that Reform want to banish from the UK. Stop fucking cosplaying for these white supremacists, they don’t want you, they hate you, they’d rather you were dead in a ditch. What the fuck is wrong with these idiots?
Breaking news: Former UK chancellor Nadhim Zahawi has joined Nigel Farage’s Reform UK, claiming that the UK was 'sick” as he became one of the biggest names to defect to the opposition party, which is leading in the polls. ft.trib.al/ko4rvVO

Reply 1988, one of the most wholesome and moving K-drama shows we’ve ever watched. Probably my favourite K-drama to date.

Removed Tehran from my Apple+ list. Really enjoyed the first 2 seasons but cannot bring myself to watch this when some members of the cast are full on Zionist wankers

Good job then that SCOTUS didn’t give him carte blanche to do whatever he wants in office with full immunity…
We used to have a Constitution, Congress, and the law. Now the limits of Trump’s power are self-determined. This is why we called our rallies ‘No Kings’.

Have been asked to produce a memo of a client’s ownership structure so decided to use MS Copilot to transcribe my OneNotes. Fucking thing is dotted with errors. Lucky there’s a human actually checking this “work”

If that racist paedophile can take over Venezuela then he can do the same to Greenland. Europe needs to wake up to the actual threat from this mentally insane wotsit.

I have an Osteo appointment at 11am and I am here clearing out the shed of crap and boxes. Definitely got the priorities round the wrong way!

And I predict there will be an AI bubble ‘correction’ in 2026. Humans are needed in every industry.
The exact impact AI will have on the enterprise labor market is unclear but investors predict trends will start to emerge in 2026.

Great craic at tennis today. The pints afterwards were even better. Obvs told E that I only had 2 pints but she definitely knew I had more as I came home very chatty (I’m usually quite reserved!) 😬

Anyway, hope you all had a great Christmas Day. Ours was filled with fun, laughter, drink, M&S food and a mystery game that we completed at 2am this morning - thanks, Professor Charlie’s World Tour Advent Calendar (we did it it one sitting that over three hours and had a great fun!)

Made a rookie error as S caught me eating sourdough with Nutella (it was the basic M&S sourdough and not their 30 year old starter dough!) and now she wants toast and chocolate spread. Parenting well here :-/

Anyway, I think I’m in for Christmas now. Food shopping all collected, out of office ON, neighbours’ cards and gifts hand delivered, spending time with S while she gets felt tip pen ink on my clothes, will finish wrapping later with a G&T and Christmas movie

If the State isn’t getting scammed by these scheisters, I don’t know what is. How the fuck can they hold a gun to the head of the State by demanding ‘compensation’ for a project they’re a) unlikely to be around for, b) they live in one of the most affluent areas in Dublin that they don’t need money
