I think a lot of the white male Brits and Americans are continuously telling on themselves when they espouse their “all men can’t be trusted” views.

#RRD BlueSky Royal Rumble Draft Some epic battles this week with 2 fixtures separated by only 1 point and another by 2 points. The table remains tight with 4 teams on 9 points and 3 teams on 6 points. Bizarrely, the teams in 8th & 9th have scored the most points overall.
Sheeran will come out with some “for the fans” BS as a reason to continue. Hopefully they belie that by not turning up in their thousands.
it seems to me most likely that the whole tour will be canceled now as a result of Kraft’s intervention injecting his own politics into the event and Sheeran’s concession to it
#FPL I genuinely think Rogers is a better pick than Palmer. I keep hearing / reading people big-up Palmer over Rogers. Pens are part of it. Palmer will take ~3 pens in the EPL this year. xGI over the 1st 4 games is comparable. I’ve also heard Palmer referenced as an alternate cap to Halaand, but
I like to think they’re currently at home going: “Fuck. Fuck! I thought we could just sneak this in under the radar. There’s no way I can lead the Hunter Biden’s Laptop v2.0 investigation now…”
So c’mon, we all want to know who Kash’s friend who is into bestiality is who also wants to work for the FBI, don’t we?

Disney Animatronics really have stepped up a level recently.
Looking good sir

Thus reaffirming my feel that I really ought to TRY Dungeon Crawler Carl as I suspect I’ll love it.
If you want to look to find the bit of science fiction culture of today that is likely most similar to the slot that Hitchhiker's fit into in the 80s, I might suggest Dungeon Crawler Carl to you. It's NOT a 1:1 fit, so settle down, but for humor/absurdity/weird melancholy, it's in the neighborhood.
I read this article back in June; it’s worth reading again. I dunno, people are complex, man. I get that. Still: if this is how they treat you to your face, what do you think they say behind your back? How can you even consider aligning with people who hate you because of ‘conservative values’…?

I swear prices are far more volatile this season. Also, who the heck picked Garnacho in the first place?

Ahem. 👇 #FPL
I see many people (most? a few?) switching Bruno to Palmer, and I’m like… eh. One pen taker to another (and I don‘t think pens are all that, personally), and I don’t see Palmer’s upside as significantly more than Bruno. Mbeumo to Rogers makers slightly more sense to me.
The more scarce oil becomes, the more valuable it will become. Why would any person / business solely focused on profit voluntarily get out of that business? Greed will kill us all.
I think it goes beyond power and oil. They’re in the profit business. Max profit, short term. Enrichment not just of oil but of themselves.
#FPL feels like there’s more variation in strategy this week. I see lots of FHs, some WCs, Palmer is a popular cap, even triple cap. I’m hoping that being patient and sticking with my team / plan is the right play overall, but can’t help being nervous with so many chips in play. Let’s see.
I don't think I've ever hated anything as much as I hate the mosquito who managed to get me twice on the pinky, once on the ring finger, both on the knuckles! Itches like a mo-fo. And I didn't even notice at the time, so the little fucker got away scot-free. You win this round, mosquito nemesis.
This isn't a technological evolution that will change the way movies are made. This is pretend. This is a case of spoiled brats with expensive toys who expect everyone to treat their Play-Doh pizza as a real culinary achievement that will revolutionize fine dining.
If I was WCing my Naaland #FPL team this week, it would look something like this. In fact, I like it so much I'm tempted to hit the button ...
This is fake. Berin knows it's fake. The evidence that it's fake is in the comments, should anyone bothered care to look. Berin is more interested in engagement than truth. Please stop reposting Berin's fake picture.

Tzolis assist and Szoboszlai goal, and people are still trying to tell me they’re not good #FPL picks.
This is both a sensible and necessary thing to do, and a sign of a failing democracy.
Just did my weekly "am I registered to vote" check online, and yes, yes I am. Don't assume you're registered to vote even if you voted in the last election, even if you've never had a problem in all your years of voting. Confirm your voter registration regularly.
"Oh, you're criticising data centres? But you USED A DATA CENTRE to publish your post??? Hypocritical much????" Time to put this fossil fuel PR inspired talking point to bed forever. Why the 'Mr Gotcha' gambit is wrong in two very important ways:
JFC this is so incredibly ignorant I don’t even know where to start. ‘AI coding’ will not enable you to personally replace Office, or PeopleSoft, or Photoshop. It may enable start-ups to introduce competitive products. But hey, guess what? Competitive products already exist. Monopolies continue.
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but it’s not AI. It’s not ‘artificial intelligence’. It’s not sentience, or thought. It’s machine learning. It’s maths, algorithms, and masses of computing power. It’s a great technical achievement (at great cost!), but it’s not an independent life form.
Similar experience. I was up for renewal: Me: "I'm up for renewal, here's what I can get elsewhere, what can you offer me?" Them: "Nothing." Me: signs up with new provider. Them: <received notification I'm transferring> "You are now through to our retention team, here's a great deal!" Me: 🤣🤣🤣👋
