If you feel the need to sack someone three months after you hired them then your inability to hire the right person is the problem.

@priceoffootball.bsky.social Given that they can't make a shirt will the new Nike ball be round?

@henrymoeran.bsky.social Silly silver numbers v silly gold numbers.

Every sentence brings something new to the madness. Stick it on CEEFAX.

10.25 AM. UK National Grid is currently whacking out 65.8% output by wind alone, solar another 23.3%. We are generating 114% of our demand & exporting 10% (4.7GW) to Europe & also replenish our pumped storage supply - using 4%. Fossil fuel is only generating 7.9% of output. #renewables #windpower

In the interest of throwbacks: you've got to respect any team that recreates Maclise's Death of Nelson as a goal celebration.

The Chief Executive of Bristol City Football Club is called Mr Boss. Nominative determinism in action!

I don't think something can be classed as a "secret" if it's the subject of the main headline on The Guardian's sport pages?

"The municipality of time"?? Just casually dropped into a sport article on the BBC. Is it where The Doctor lives? #DoctorWho

Stormy landscape, by Penry Williams (1802-1885)

How is this BBC article more than 3 letters long?

our mismanagement of the environment has crossed the point of no return, the dolphins are leaving

Jones is very busy at the moment. Not even a look in for Smith.

Polanski: "Cloaked in misleading analogies abt maxed-out credit cards & household budgets, austerity was not a solution to crisis, but a project which used the crisis as an opportunity to facilitate an enormous upward transfer of wealth from the many to the few.” greenparty.org.uk/2026/03/18/z...

The "rub of the green" is surely more likely to go the way of the Irish than the Scots, no?

The Potter seal of approval. Michael Carrick will be so proud. (Gotta be this, right? Otherwise it's definitely not news.)

A motto for our cousins across the pond... "Numquam suffragium republicanum ferre"

If your job has led you to the point where it seems reasonable to ignore people sending you a polite email then I recommend changing the way your job works so that you don't have to be rude simply to do it.

Maybe we should be clearer. Jobs aren’t at risk from AI. They’re at risk from amoral shitbag short term spec capitalists using AI against a weakly unionised workforce and broken government.

Thanks, @alan678.bsky.social! The #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #photogenic birds you find to be photogenic. Alt is #LightAndShade bird captures with lighting contrast. Hamming it up today, we have a crow, Cardinal, eastern bluebird, and in mild contrast, a sparrow chilling. #eck #wildlife #nikon

If you'd like to give to good causes then don't play the National Lottery - simply give money to good causes. I guarantee you'll feel better about yourself in the long term. Enrich people who need help rather than the directors and shareholders of Allwyn Entertainment. #DoughnutsNotLotteryTickets

Individualism puts the emphasis on us to support/donate to charities while the extremely rich - who have the means to do something about the things that the charities are trying to alleviate - do nothing. I'm not saying "don't donate" but equally - write to these idiots and encourage them to help.

Another 24p for streams this week. What shall I spend my unexpected windfall on? Suggestions please.

I know this country is addicted to cars but it genuinely is so much better when you’re not in a car. People were not made to isolate themselves in private mobile living rooms. When there’s not a literal wall separating you, it turns out a lot of people are friendly.

This feels relevant. soundcloud.com/timeveleigh/...

What do you mean "the Premier League is boring and predictable"?
