Playing GT7 and seeing the trains in the game, got me thinking that for all of the constant new versions of Train Sim World, they haven't done any that come with the game in Japan. Just an England, USA and Germany routes. #gaming

So #GranTurismo players. I've gone to the dark side (not really, I played when young) and bought #GT7 in the sale, and just wondering why there are so few new road cars from Europe or North America. I especially noticed the lack of new BMWs of course. Do they not like adding them? #PS5 #gaming

YouTube needs to put a filter option in their search for 'no AI', because it's getting ridiculous how much is swamping actual stuff. They won't though as it makes them money.

I don't know if Hasan shocked his dog. I do know all the online content creators manufacturing a hysteria about it don't care - except it being Hasan. Or care one bit about the evils being done by the American state and Republican States to other humans - many of them openly support and urge more.

While I see it, I'm not going to bother saying anything about how deranged say Texas or Florida elected officials are doing and saying, if no-one will ever do anything about it. Keep yourself to yourself and others who you trust, and divest as much as possible from interacting with state actors.

Look I bought some Converse platform sneakers as this guy modelled them in Attitude, but if you wanted to get away from homophobia, England wouldn't be my choice. (unless you're an assimilationist or anti-trans and pro-Israel, then RW media will flatter you from that) www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

Politics is a (long) con, inhabited almost solely by power-hungry freaks who want to get off by controlling everyone else around them, and gain the privilege off serving another bunch of power-hungry freaks - the wealthy. The sooner humanity is rid of it, the better we'll have as a future.

The #NRL really did blunder by for some reason deciding to wait 2 1/2 days before 'premiering' the Grand Final highlights on YouTube. Could have easily got over a million hits if it had been in an hour like normal, but instead it's in the low tens of thousands after nearly half a day. #RugbyLeague

All these motherfuckers who blabbered on about tyrannical government and the need of the 2nd Amendment and guns to defend or even attack against one, now there is, are all silent or even openly supporting of it, as they were always fine with one happening, as long as they were doing their tyranny.

The Daily Mail are running a tale of an American liberal who's now MAGA instead, because someone here - no doubt a cabbie glued to GB News all day - said "we all want Trump, to sort out crime in London". I don't really believe either part, but it would fit to the idea of how malleable liberals are.

With my long waited for surgery date, I received today instead a letter to fill in a questionnaire about how I'm currently feeling with my condition, because of the long waiting time. I have 14 days to send it back, with it being 7 days already from the letter date.

Finally received an email from Xbox overnight about the Game Pass Ultimate subscription rises. I'll go down to Essentials - unless there hasn't been a big sale for the few games I actually use online from GP, then I guess I'll cancel outright.

I'm sure I'm right in remembering once Windows 10 was going to be the last in the line. Now I keep being told that it will no longer be secure from October 14th and to upgrade.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, and I know it makes it 20 years ago this year, but the match the Super League YouTube page is premiering at 1800 tonight ahead of the big game, is the 2005 Grand Final between Leeds Rhinos and BRADFORD BULLS. Makes you think. #SuperLeague #RugbyLeague

I don't see Israel in everything, but there's no business reason for Paramount to buy The Free Press but for the Ellisons' love, and even less to make Bari fucking Weiss editor-in-chief of CBS News. To go with the video Netanyahu says who owns TikTok and X is most important for restoring the image.

The more I see and hear about NASCAR 25, the more I'm thinking now it's going to be bare-bones and flop.

So I've discovered I've no more of that £3.99 a month digital sub to League Express any longer. 😩 But I can have a wonderful 5% (or £3.50) off a 52 issue sub for being such a long-time sub... For 14 days.

Ugh. I decided to leave the #NoMansSky expedition, as no-one seems to need/want the hitch-hiking optional. Then I find the Corvette 'lost' the most recent changes, and all those added parts are gone - like a Titan heavy booster, and the exclusive Deadeye cannon. So that's fuckin' wicked. #gaming

CW: RFL Championship Grand Final Well, well. The cat is now well among the pigeons. October 16th just got very fucking interesting. #SuperLeague #RugbyLeague

CW: NRL Grand Final side-mention Okay, I'm happy for the result as it was for a deserving team this season, but now let's get to the much bigger Grand Final - York vs Toulouse to see who Super League will decide to stiff. #RugbyLeague

Just seen that Clermont/Montauban score. Looking like the promoted team to Top 14 will go back down straight away again. #rugby #rugbyunion

Probably guessed but I broke down and went to Smyths Toys Superstore to get an on-sale end-of-model #PS5 Slim Digital Edition. So I'm now set for my big 2 games of 2026. Maybe it was where I got it, but in 2020 I got 3 months free Game Pass Ultimate, but nothing for #PlayStation Plus now. #gaming

You might believe you live in a 'democracy', but you actually don't when you have politicians and the media openly lie, deceive and even manufacture narratives and hyper-fixate over nothing of material harm or cost - and get away with, and often personally benefit off doing it.

What's even more remarkable is we were told for two fucking years that there was no way that an American president could tell and get Israel to stop what they were doing, and also to shut the fuck up about demanding it's done.

I looked at what's on my Xbox, and only 3 are Game Pass - Forza Horizon 5, Forza Motorsport and No Man's Sky. I have all FH5 DLC so won't buy again elsewhere, and Motorsport is seemingly done with, so I guess when I finally buy NMS it will be on PS5. It will be odd to have no games again though.

Nobody's asking FIFA to "solve geopolitical problems" - even though it like many other sporting bodies like to say they can and do other times - but why did you ban Russia (and Belarus) then? www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

I don't hate Jewish people. I don't even think about any person being Jewish, or of being any other religion. Maybe that's wrong or evil of me. I'm just anti a state that's indiscriminately destroying another group of people, with Western support. If that's Saudi Arabia in Yemen or Israel in Gaza.

First thing I thought when I saw the headline was 'by cop', but how can you possibly mistake a human for a squirrel? news.sky.com/story/teenag...

Coming from this irregular music listener, so is Bad Bunny someone to also now go 'support' now the whole Trump regime is going after him and his followers, or no?

The way they're talking of it, I'm wondering if we'll eventually get a red warning - and Emergency Alert - for Storm Amy. #StormAmy #ukweather #MetOffice www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGgg...

I suppose we should put Beaumont's opus response to his threat to 'withdraw' (not that I'm reading all these capital letters). Missed out on using 'Woke Wigan' and sad it didn't end in 'thank you for your attention!' #SuperLeague #RugbyLeague leighleopards.co.uk/club-stateme...

Just seen the #Xbox Game Pass Ultimate price change in the UK is November 4th. Should be one month at the current price for me, and then I had enough reward points to get another. Then that's it for me. Oh, and they got rid of the #XboxGamePass reward overnight (glad I did it yesterday). #gaming

Yeah, the fucking console's gone. The price is still there, but it's sold out in both our Argos stores. Should've fucking stayed up and done it last night I bet. Oh well.

Hey, so, this £330 for a PlayStation 5 Digital Edition console? Good price or not or wait? #gaming #PS5 #PlayStation

So I got my 2nd Summit car, and 6th Platinum in 7 (the other I didn't try for), but it was fucking tense. I had to use automatic gears, and got an extra 50k points. Even then nearly 1.3 million got me only exactly 14,000th place, so I needed those additional 5k slots too. #TheCrewMotorfest #gaming

I was wondering why Ubisoft+ games were suddenly on #Xbox Game Pass. I've happily - and perhaps stupidly - been paying I suspect 4 years worth of Ultimate subscriptions. I might pay one month, but I'm pretty certain I'm not paying an extra £8/month for nothing I'll want. #XboxGamePass #gaming

A few months ago I saw a video on #Ford Europe's Vignale range. I'd never heard or seen one. Today I see an SUV with blue oval and Vignale stylised below, under the rear window. I'm guessing a Kuga or maybe an Edge - maybe someone knows. Oh, also I found in a car park a white C7 Corvette. #cars

Beaumont's doing his Trump routine again. Leigh 'withdraw' from the semi-final. He got his power-grab at the top, yet seemingly still isn't happy with anything. Just proving again why I said NRL Europe would never have him involved. #SuperLeague #RugbyLeague wiganwarriors.com/blog/2025/10...

They are never, and were never, going to ban them. There will always be a reason. Even if there's a surrender and submission to Trump and Blair, it doesn't magically erase what has been done for two years. news.sky.com/story/move-t...

The Independent have put up an article on the puberty blockers trial, and the only people quoted are anti-trans 'activists' and groups, plus a video of Keira Bell. The only way they can say it's balanced is Wes Streeting's allowing it - the same guy who's been coddling and supporting all the antis.

I don't know why, I'm getting all excited and hoping for the next GTA and Forza Horizon, but I have this deep feeling and fear that I'm just not going to make it that long to see it and play them.

What's the fucking point of this NHS online hospital thing when you have to send your fucking photo ID off somewhere, just to be able to use it as it is now?

I see The Guardian columnists today are lauding the - and happy at being anointed - reincarnation of Margaret Thatcher.

Maybe Hamas want any off ramp for themselves, but it seems giving to Donald Trump, Tony Blair and a bunch of Israel supporters/defenders for an indeterminate length of time is just more oppression and submission, and be a play-thing where Israel would be allowed to do the same as in the West Bank.

I'm so sick and tired of politics and the whole game it is. I just want the state and its systemic actors to go away and leave me the fuck alone.

Imagine trying to get on the NHS online account service and needing to send photo ID to even start using it.

With all of these shootings that are done in America, just imagine if instead of turning guns on one another, they all turned them on the actual villains ruining their standard of life?

Well I did not see that coming at half-time (literally with the stream keep freezing). That has put the cat amongst the pigeons for sure. I was looking forward to an anxiety-less October 16th to be honest. #RugbyLeague

Just remembered back that Toulouse also were shutout in last year's Championship Grand Final as well. Around 4.5k watching a dodgy YouTube stream though, so that's something I guess. #RugbyLeague

Be aware that the 'violent extremists' all wear suits and scapegoat the fuck out of the most vulnerable in society
