clairevokins.substack.com/p/has-dei-di... This is a great article by @clairev.bsky.social laying out the reality of the drinks industry by directly pointing at the contradictions. When the 'inclusive' spaces aren't inclusive, who are they really for?

A rousing speech from Ange Postecoglou, a party long into the night and a lot of singing - Spurs players marked their Europa League win in style. @eliasburke.bsky.social on how Tottenham Hotspur celebrated their Europa League triumph ⬇️ 🔗 www.nytimes.com/athletic/637...

"I ALWAYS WIN SOMETHING IN MY SECOND YEAR" --ANGE POSTECOGLOU

Wow! We only went and ruddy done it! COYFS!

MATE

Win or lose... Always COYS. No matter what, the Son will rise tomorrow. See y'all on the flip side.

Now it's only a few hours away the nerves are building..... COYS

Release #16 from @theheartcut x @fieldenwhisky Beautifully pronounced aroma that carries across to the palate, banana bread w/ chocolate chips and pecans. Lots of salted caramel - the salinity allows all those notes to shine. I reckon this would be naughty in an old fashioned. #englishwhisky

COYFS! Still can't believe it. This team. Believe!

COME ON YOU SPURS!

Africa Stream: "Today marks 47 years since the brutal assault by apartheid South African forces on a refugee camp in southern Angola, where hundreds—primarily women and children—lost their lives.  This tragic event, known as the Cassinga massacre, is remembered every 4 May in Namibia.

Happy St. George's Day! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

#0%beer and a dram is my go-to for watching football. I'd much rather have an indie b-corp 0% - what are people's recommendations? Lochlea x Overtone is 👌

Finally got a snap of the army of newts in the pond 😍

The journey continues.

Spurs are in the semi finals! We held out and got the job done. Thought this was a worthy dram to celebrate. OMC Glengoyne 16yo #THFC #Spurs

Don't let the doomers tell you "it's just Southampton." We won! It's okay to celebrate! Take the vibe infusion!

Whether it’s the impulsive dopamine junkie or the rejection sensitive and anxious hypervigilance, ADHD makes it hard to be patient. To wait. Do nothing. Not act nor react. Simply WAIT. See what happens. Then act. Waiting is incredibly powerful. ADHD craves urgency. Get it under control.

#Partagas Serie D No.4 - has been resting in the humidor for about a year. The ageing seems to have mellowed it—still full of flavour, more coca and wood both balanced nicely. #cigar

I was Ange in for ages....clapping the fans like shows he's done. Chelsea didn't have to try. Their goalie is woeful yet we didn't make him work. The players look confused. Mason, go and win us a ruddy cup! #Spurs #THFC

It's over, whether it's tomorrow, Monday, next Friday, the Friday after that or the end of the season. He's been dealt a bad hand, of course, but he's played it very poorly. Each match there's no discernible approach that amounts to much more than playing the exact same way and hoping for the best

The first English blended whisky ever! Woven Whisky Experience N.22 Pastures New. I've just had my first patriotic pour and I am a fan. Peach / grapes / nutmeg / grass / white pepper / background smoke Feel it will be epicly epic with soda. Love it! #Englishwhisky #wovenwhisky

ADHD is not well understood or represented amongst ethnic minority groups. Aside from leaving people struggling it can also reinforce racial biases. “Lazy, stupid, unreliable.” And the experience from the inside can be worse. “Othering” amplified by rejection sensitivity. As it was for me.

Spirits and wine see sales lift, but beer wanes www.thedrinksbusiness.com/2025/04/spir... @teamdb.bsky.social

Disappointing face-value BBC coverage of Chelsea's financial results (to comply with PSR they sold their women's side to themselves, like they did with two hotels last year) The Guardian, on the other hand, captures the absurdity of it in the headline and sub heads. The BBC *must* do better.

The myth of the “high performing” person with ADHD. If someone can do so well how can ADHD be a big deal? Maybe others just need to suck it up? No. There’s no such thing as high performing. For all the extraordinary things you see there will be whole areas of life ignored or empty. 1/4

Yet more Jean Luc Pasquets in this household. Organic cognac hits differently. These two aren't cognacs obvs - both sounded interesting and I love eating and growing raspberries. I can see this being enjoyed on a hot day before a meal.

Aged 18 years and 176 days, Myles Lewis-Skelly is the youngest player in history to score on his senior England debut, surpassing Marcus Rashford's record of 18 years and 209 days vs. Australia in May 2016. [@optajoe.com]

Didier Lemorton 10 Year Old Domfrontais #Calvados is a beauty. Delicate, floral and fragrant. Perfect for spring and summer.

A regular business dilemma is one that puts you in a position that you put your principles to one side in order to keep your business going. I've come across a disappointing example of this. A thread, with a twist. 1/7

Starting to pull all the strands together for the upcoming 'revival release' of The London Distillery Company londondistillery.co.uk/the-restorat...

Huge news - the IFJ says Irish Distillers is set to pause whiskey production www.farmersjournal.ie/tillage/news...

For BHM, another black-owned whiskey brand! I’m so glad Bourbon Women is doing a spotlight on these brands, because this one sounds great! Right now it looks like they’re only in California, but I hope that changes!

www.jancisrobinson.com/articles/why... Amazing article - we need to support all people flourish within the spirits industry and challenge the global hegemony.

Ange Postecoglou admits he deliberately made it difficult for Djed Spence as part of a plan for the full-back and it was put to him that his critics suggest he only started using Spence because he had to. Loads of good new quotes from the Spurs boss. www.football.london/tottenham-ho...

“If you had to guess the leading cause of death for children and young people around the world, what would you say? Malaria perhaps? Pneumonia? Suicide? They’re all high up there, but no, it’s road accidents.”

Got some bits to play around with 😊 please send cocktail recommendations 🍸🍹🍸🍹

Minor updates. Filling up. Nearly at max capacity. go.bsky.app/FL7dABZ
