Footballers who pretend to be more hurt than they are should be forced to visit an 8 year old child who's dressed up as a doctor on the side of the pitch, and only be allowed to come back on when said child is bored of using their toy stethoscope and bandages on them.

He's getting plenty'o-stick for this, but I think he's right. I'll go down my local for a pint knowing I'll know people there, or pop in for one somewhere if I'm out and about - but who is going by themselves late to a *cocktail and karaoke bar*? Nuisances, that's who.

I'm sick of boring 4-2 games. Sick of it.

Tribalism sends people potty. I've just read someone imply that people paid to give their political opinion are sneaky tools of underhand media propaganda, and should declare that they have a vested interest in people that share their opinions being elected. Like who the fuck doesn't want that?

Trying to persuade my partner that instead of listening to the free jazz we should stand outside, talking about the profound message the artist is sending with this picture and see how many people we can get to follow us.
I love it when an organisation accidentally puts its desktop on a projector, it’s like seeing your most straitlaced friend get drunk.

Can someone sit the TV companies down and explain to them that having an hour's build up to a football match is f*cking ridiculous? Seriously, start 10 minutes before, show the match, do 15 minutes after, done.

It will never not be amusing that on twitter I'm a pinko liberal Marxist bleeding heart commie socialist, and on here I'm a crypto fascist nazi enabling far right goose stepper.

Woke up this morning to a Peruvian coke lord I briefly met years ago sending me vulnerable texts about life because apparently he decided I was the most feminine dude he'd ever let into his circle and am foreign enough to safely share his emotions with.

Not sure what I'm supposed to do with this.

Impossible to overstate just how much potential he had as a kid. Was outstanding on his first loan at Derby. Just shows how much mental health issues can derail anyone regardless of ability.

If an oncoming severe storm is putting lives in danger, and a stranger is stranded outside your house, you have a moral responsibility to offer them shelter - but that doesn't make that offer their right, and it certainly doesn't make it unconditional.

It really is potty that Reform are gaining popularity exploiting issues by insisting the mainstream parties can't tackle them, and people are pretty explicitly saying the way to beat them is for Labour to actually not tackle them. Potty.

Did you know that Japan is the nation with the most bear attacks against people dating back to the start of our records

13 people have died to bears since April. That's wild.
Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi said on Wednesday that a proposed supplementary budget would include spending to help local governments address attacks by bears.

It's astonishing that we're facing easily the biggest threat to our species since the Cuban Missile Crisis, and next to nobody is paying attention because we're all too busy being furious at today's fury target. No hyperbole, AI's on course to kill us all.

As a kid I used to watch James Bond films and wonder why so many were prepared to risk their lives henchmanning for weirdo psychopathic up to no good megalomaniacs. But you look at all those who've made fanboying for Elon bleddy Musk 95% of their personality, and you understand.
