Not here for anything in particular, you'll just have to go with vibes (although films [movies], motorsport, politics, and culture seem to come up a lot.)

Can we not trivialise how fucking terrible the DG was at his job by glorifying Trump's legal moves? Trump doing one thing is not what got Davie sacked. A thousand pisspoor decisions got him sacked.

Saw someone on reddit credit the photographer but have not seen any credit on any actual publications. Predictably can't find the reddit post now.
I always make sure to add photo credit on @onlyendurance.com. Least we can do as a publication - images are hugely important at drawing people in.

OK who took that incredible photo of Bortoleto's car debris?
I've looked at ELEVEN different sites who have used it and not a single one of them gives a credit.
Why is everyone in #F1 coverage such a wanker?

Posted without comment, here is what Copilot makes of a race grid:
"Car #15 is part of the LMGT3 or Hypercar class depending on the team, but without knowing the team name (e.g., Proton, AF Corse, etc.), it's hard to pinpoint the exact entry."

I made a “how do you do, fellow kids?” joke to someone in their mid 20s who, it turns out, was too young to have heard of that meme.
So “how do you do, fellow kids?” is now an example of “how do you do, fellow kids?”

My grandfather only liked Salt & Vinegar crisps and was a prolific consumer of them. Yet they were only invented in 1967 when he was in his mid 50's.
I hope something so delicious and life changing will be invented when I am that age and that I will be open to such life changing taste sensations

This is a brilliant thing to think about if you're one of those people that wangs on about Europe's "heavy-handed" regulation on digital markets. It's not heavy-handed. It's vital.
Imagine Musk, who clearly is in war with "the left" did a sentiment analysis on your old tweets and decided to publish all your DMs. And also deleting your old account actually did nothing to protect you, because they're all in a big old database in Musk HQ.
