Gambling is destroying sport but the wankstains who run sport think that sucking on the gambling teat will help them solve the problem of gambling destroying sport
I watch the Athletic football podcast YT show pretty frequently, and as someone who's had to do live ad reads on radio, you can see the hosts are literally dying inside as they read out those gambling plugs theyre being ordered to. It's like watching a hostage video

I see just a year out from their biggest electoral victory that the UK “Labour” party are further digging themselves into tory trenches like the cowardly liberals they are.

Never voting for these again.

Why should we be concerned about a Reform Government when it’s already here?

Labour can get in the bin.
This is as bad as anything proposed by Reform.

If only our society took major crimes by rich people as seriously as minor crimes by poor people. Ideally more seriously. But as seriously would be a big improvement.

Happy 80th birthday, Neil Young. Here he is in 1978, Never Mind the Bollocks T-shirt and all, performing a quite extraordinary version of Hey Hey, My My with Devo.

I mean, you wouldn't catch Graham Nash doing this, would you?

Good on Bluesky for protecting ‘Eric’ from the 70 year old lyrics of a song.
First of all, this is not a direct quote from a Johnny Cash song and it wasn’t identified as such. Secondly, I don’t think the recipient of this post would have seen the overt death threat as a joke. Thanks BlueSky for keeping our community civil!

‘When I was just a baby, my mama told me Sarah always be a good girl, don’t ever play with guns, But I shot a bot on Bluesky just watch them die.

You suspended one of your users for seventy-two hours, just because you're culturally illiterate?

Wait, was she referring the fucking WSJ article that was arguing that Johnny Cash was considered uncool by music fans? The one where the fucking author just announced that he's a fucking musical illiterate?
