Right-wingers need to recognise that anti-Muslim scaremongering always makes it sound cool. Calling London “Londonistan”? Calling New York “New Mecca”? Sign me up 🕋

Really appreciate Lily Allen making an album specifically for me, the person with no interest in her music but who loves gossip

Sexy barrel leg ecru jeans?

Is it a good thing that every United long ball ends up with Gravenberch driving uncontested through midfield

my favorite part of parenting is getting my kids ready for school. cajoling, repeating myself, grinding my teeth as I shake with rage — I love starting each day the angriest I’ve ever been

Fuck David Goggins, if it’s raining I’m not running

Time to go outside and savour autumn’s bounty (unfollow Fabrizio Romano)

You’re all laughing at a man who is self-soothing using the only materials available to him. Sad

ready for Forest vs Palace, the Macbeth Derby #epl-live

Depleted Bournemouth, Newcastle without Isak, Arsenal without Odegaard, Saka, and Havertz - Liverpool will simply never play a full strength team at this rate

Another great day on the internet. I don’t even know what this possibly could be referring to

My wife was one of the organisers of the petition against transphobe John Boyne’s inclusion in the Polari Prize and I have never been prouder. And now this lifetime bitch, who gleefully called himself “a proud TERF”, is whining about being bullied online? Sorry you’re getting smoked, bigot

So many stats guys apparently want not only to be right, but for EVERYONE to admit they were right. Guess what, old conservative English football blokes will always think you're annoying American nerds who don't understand the game. It doesn't matter. You won.

When I move to the side as I walk down the pavement so as not to atomise an old woman coming the other way, that is emotional labour. When I’m nice to my daughters instead of treating them as more meat in the world’s abattoir, that is emotional labour. When I separate trash from recycling, that is e

I have made this point 100 TIMES. "Every man should carry a knife" - no, brother, this is not The Edge (1997). I do not need to slit the throat of a rival patriarch. I carry 4 hairbands for my daughters, hand sanitiser, and wet wipes.

Have been avoiding posting about Palestine anywhere because I have nothing valuable to add but how are we meant to do anything when we know that our governments are just watching genocide happen. Just desperately hope there are Nuremberg trials for all these fucks one day (Starmer etc included)

Hello, I am writing analytics-focused previews for every Premier League team with the absolute homies: @moesquare.bsky.social @cata-bush.bsky.social @shelatneel.bsky.social @patrickbvs.bsky.social @mixedknuts.bsky.social It's £10. Click the option on the right: www.thetransferflow.com/upgrade

From now on, hot people are not allowed to travel to Jurassic Park. Only uggos. We cannot continue to impoverish our gene pool like this

This is amazing both for being wrong in its premise and in its explanation for its premise

the sperm whale, scientific or poetic, lives not complete in any literature. Far above all other hunted whales, his is an unwritten life.

Anybody know any Americans who can be persuaded to post about their parochial political news on Bluesky, feels like we’re short on that here

structural explanations of the social causes of human behavior for my real friends, moral judgments based on an assumption of absolute individual responsibility for my sham friends

It doesn’t matter how favourable the tactical match-up is, you can’t just play like shit in a Champions League final and win (except if you’re Man City that one time)

Reject Any Partey Extension

I kneel before Neel

The modern novel was basically invented with the free indirect style. Before that, interiority was barely in the picture. But thanks to Jane Austen and Flaubert, it’s now the unique offering of the novel.

my wife and I have been rewatching all the Missions Impossible and we have got to Ghost Protocol and I’ve realised I cannot make this woman as happy as these films do

The rebuilding Tottenham podcast is here! @mixedknuts.bsky.social and @patrickbvs.bsky.social talk about: • Ange in or out? • New midfielder options • Best leagues to buy from • Why Rayan Cherki would be a great signing www.youtube.com/watch?v=scTi...

Not to do everyone's job for them but a better pitch is to allow each immigrant to fight one American of their choosing. If they win they take that American's citizenship

Honestly not trying to be smug by saying this, but I'm just very very happy that I didn't vote for Labour in the GE

SPIKE HAS SPOKEN

For Arsenal and Barcelona fans today, Blaise Pascal reminds you why you like football in the first place:

Lewandowski moving like a man who needs to meditate and recover health

More teams should play tactics which either work incredibly well or make them look foolish and incompetent

PSG are in a really tough spot without the ball now. They're definitely not a low block team but Arsenal have found a consistent solution against their press, so they're prone to fixing up chances either way. #ARSPSG

It’s so fun to watch these players problem-solve live. The whole defence rotating! Saka wandering over to the left! Fullbacks in midfield!

You should be able to appeal yellow cards received protesting crazy decisions

Testing that last sentence by arguing that you would be better off saying “uninterested” instead of “disinterested”

they're finally serving cunt

Shamelessly reposting Hayden’s kind words, but honestly, working on TTF has been great because I get to yap at actual pros who know what it’s like to build teams and prepare for big games. Hard not to get excited!

HOLD THAT

I can’t believe that in an away game against an elite defensive side, Joao Palhinha is not seen as a difference-maker for Bayern Munich

Really hope Urbig is Bayern number one for a decade because seeing JK UR BIG written down brings me a lot of joy

There was a study that showed judges who were reminded of death before sentencing set fines and prison terms higher and longer. Can we rule out something similar with this referee

If Arsenal go through, El Chiringuito will be unmissable

YOU LOVE TO SEE IT

This is from 2020 and “a lifetime bitch” has been a regular part of my lexicon ever since

Today's Man Down thumb nail is possibly the cutest @patrickbvs.bsky.social and I have ever looked as adults. [Episode drops later this afternoon.]
