I ventured back onto X because I'd heard that it was kicking off about AVFC banning Macabi Tel Aviv fans from attending the match in Birmingham. I wasn't prepared for the Prime Minister of the UK equating banning violent hooligans with antisemitism. I'm actually reeling here.

It's inescapable that we all need to ditch cars and meat and live in eco houses away from rivers and that crony capitalism is a barrier to that. Otherwise capitalism will implode with much greater ferocity. Government told to prepare for 2C warming by 2050 www.bbc.com/news/article...

Oh great, the Israelis couldn't stop killing people for more than 2 days. They're just absolutely depraved.

I was not prepared for the sudden realisation in Incendies 😱

Looking at the joy that Israelis and Palestinians are feeling when their relatives and friends are returned home, you've got to hope that they enjoy this feeling and want more of it.

As so many people were screaming 4 years ago, all he needed was the Corbyn manifesto without the attackable baggage (and a tidy suit). They won an election by default and got drunk on their own farts. The party and leader are both going further down.

What we could have had

The sheer incompetence on display by Jayaram, Brearey, Cheshire Police, Evans, Justice Goss and Justice Thirlwall is breathtaking. The CCRC is not fit for purpose and the government has to step in now. The investigation and trial/appeal were botched and the conviction is clearly unsafe.

There's some really interesting stuff in this piece about AI threatening jobs and it's very insightful. It's been happening for a long time from even basic automation and is accelerating at pace now. Automation should free us from work. It should allow us to become creatures of leisure.

I recently went back to the dark side and it's terrifying over there. I need to find interesting follows on here. Hit me up with recommendations on UK politics, car free future, ecosocialism, bass guitar, bikes, plant-based food, progressive, all the cool stuff, basically.

Just to say I will never, ever vote Labour again because I think Starmer is a scumbag, as is McSweeney, as is Streeting. Their inaction over and even assistance in the genocide in Gaza is a stain on them and they'll never be forgiven.

What are these then? Look like caterpillars. Absolutely covered the trees in the park

9. You really want to reduce waste? Switch to a plant-based diet.

But at least I have a blue passport eh

I am knackered after that 2nd half #avfc

PSA: if your 1am scheduled tasks didn't run yesterday it's because there was no such time. (UK only)

Almost 24 hours now since @google @killedbygoogle.com decided to kill millions of Chromecasts around the world and stop people watching stuff on their TVs. Great job guys. You really are becoming a terrible company.

My gangs? Sugarhill

My scene colour? Ocean

When you have to go to IMDb, you've failed.

I've just realised that Ryanair is a phonetic palindrome.

I always get very excited when I see a push notification which begins with Benjamin Netanyahu but then I'm always disappointed.

Which is more important to be good, the non-HDL level or the cholesterol ratio?

So glad I avoid all of this nastiness by just not eating meat. When you step back and look at what you're actually eating it's disgusting. Not having to worry about all the other associated bad stuff is just a bonus.

This is a brilliant and rather terrifying analysis of Starmer and the Labour right by the great @owenjones.bsky.social www.owenjones.news/p/keir-starm...

Today should probably be the day that James O Brien apologises for slandering a holocaust survivor.

This could change everything. I think it's going to be huge.

"Stefanovic is re-engaging sir!"

Fibre is the one actual superfood. People don't realise just how much everything else the body does relies on it.

bsky.app/profile/stre... FINALLY!

Strava appears to be down. On parkrun morning. Oh the humanity

I only recently watched Mulholland Drive and it blew me away. Twin Peaks Fire Walk With Me was another masterpiece. David Lynch let you make your own films.

Obviously 14 years of funding decline led to this but I'm yet to find anyone who can tell me what Streeting has done in the 6 months he's been there to avoid this happening this winter.

Obesity could very easily be objectively classified with one measure: Your parkrun time. I'm not even joking.

Reeves -32, Starmer -38 Farage -32, Badenoch -25 I thought just the left hated Starmer and Reeves but apparently it's everyone.

Brilliant article www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I think the anti woke mind virus has hit a new milestone. It's time we woke up to this ridiculous idea that people are able to walk.

Anyone else remember being thoroughly amazed at the incredible technology that made Suburban Fox on the BBC Micro or the Domesday Project on Laserdisc?

Streeting has had 6 months to prepare for this. The fact that he hasn't means he isn't fit for the post of health secretary and should resign.

One of the best things about the UK is woodlands in winter

Really bizarre the the FBPE king Starmer turned out to be a bigger Brexiter than Farage while their sworn enemy Crobbins was offering to rejoin the EU but they told him to get stuffed

peer-reviewed study by Zoe scientists: vegetarians and vegans appear to have healthier gut microbiomes than omnivores do zoe.com/learn/vegan-...

I don't understand. John seemed so serious about combating antisemitism yet when I agree with him I'm blocked

Article where John Harris naively believes that there's any way back for Starmer and his government, or that he's interested in actually trying to make things better www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Coleslaw because I thought it was made from cold sores.

I'm 100% convinced that the UK government should move to Birmingham.

I'm trying to think of the UK equivalent. Somewhere where a load of 60 year olds love the NHS and will laugh at Edna Everage or Lily Savage but get very excited about genders and immigrants. Essex? Kent?

Just watched the MOTD analysis of the Duran red card and I'm even more pissed off than before. Another match ruined by incompetent officials. Emery must wonder why he's come back to a country with referees who constantly ruin games. #avfc

#avfc that was a ridiculous red. Duran is trying to get his leg out of the way and when it looks like he's about to contact he pulls out. Shocked at some of the villa fans not seeing this.
