this is why i affirmatively believe it is dangerous to indulge it even one iota. someone who has moved to a city five seconds ago now enjoys the same total right of access everyone in it always did

This is some real noble savage bullshit about the global south, who actually do use air conditioning heavily, unlike the imagined bullshit of people who are using those parts of the world to defend Europe mass murdering the elderly and medically fragile via heat stroke.

Love this guy

🚨NEW BLOGPOST🚨 Farage thinks that the support of the people of Clacton means his scandals don't matter. Many of his opponents mirror this thinking, arguing that his loyalists will still stick with him. I'm not fully convinced by this is true www.joxleywrites.jmoxley.co.uk/p/some-thing...

Er Spore 2? Or some kind of hybrid of Stellaris and Factorio where you directly manage the factories to build modular ships to colonise the galaxy. You get a bit of it in the Space Age DLC but larger-scale.

Further lesson - which looks like Andy B absorbed: whips when used correctly are collectors of intel re voter reactions, which can improve policy and prevent political damage. As per winter fuel, PIP reforms, etc. if whips used purely as No10 enforcers, this fuels rebels, esp. with large majority.

The fact that you still see yourselves as the victims in all of this is a significant part of the problem.

I save crashouts like this for Overwatch so I can drive safely and slowly where there is risk of actual real-world consequences

Lads please stop talking about France!! Unless the BBC has become staffed by Morocco fans overnight

And, I presume, Everton will have a points deduction?

Whole thing is self-inflicted by Clacton though

This is basically the oligarch equivalent of suicide by cop

I mean this explains quite a lot about experiencing social media in the 2020's www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

I just want to talk to him.

oh good it's all kicking off again

Kiss of death we’re losing to Norway

Many Americans still think this is a serious domestic issue but The Funny Trump Show abroad and the reverse, although not true, is closer to true

Funny I never see the inverse about E.G. one of France's best players, Micheal Olise

Spain is trying and being threatened with economic sanction. And its not like you guys will do anything until the midterms

Dreamt England-Norway went to penalties after a score of 5-5 AET #prophecy

I keep saying it, but people must understand that, even now, Starmer's performance is massively overrated. His foreign policy in 2025 will go down as one of the most shameful episodes in recent British history. It is a disgrace that we turned our back on Canada and Denmark when they needed our help

This is why the thing where people are like "Starmer was good on foreign policy!" is just so blatantly and dangerously untrue

You know it's a bad one when the BBC livetext has turned to shitposting

In every by-election in England, voters have sorted themselves into a 'Reform' and a 'not Reform' lane. They have not needed a pact for this to happen.

He is not the most popular politician in the UK by any measure

"waaaaaaaaah, oh wah wah waahhhhhhh" - Nigel Farage, 62

It’s the true US football fans I feel sorry for. Years of satisfying moaning about the dodgy ref and how you’d have beaten Belgium if Balogun had been on the pitch denied by an autocrat’s whim

I don’t have to look, they just sort of appear

Bye Felicia?

See? If they hadn't been so intent on getting the suspension suspended the USA could have gone for years with a sense of grievance about what could have been if only Balogun had been allowed to play. Injustice is a basic fuel of football, allowing the imagination to soar, creating dreams of what if.

"At the end of the day, aren't all nations as venal as we are?"

Remarkably I've found another reason to hate on Ronaldo

respectfully, no that is england's. Yours is to crash out in this exact round. You are Mexico with fans who care less

Imagine writing about sport without having any sense of what makes sport precious. www.nytimes.com/athletic/742...

More of this, give me more! I love it!

HAHAHAHA KARMA

Fuck off Ronaldo you prick

If Portugal were playing with 11 they’d be winning this easily

Spain… don’t look very good?

My word what is going on there

We have the oldest alliance in the world with Portugal but unfortunately I can’t prefer a Ronaldo team

Great reporting on this perspective in Science: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... 1. Risks of ultra-processed foods are likely caused by their differences in specific nutritional properties, not in being 'processed' 2. 'Ultra-processed' miscategorizes many healthy + sustainable plant-based products

think the issue is people find it hard to view the economy as a dynamic machine with tendencies or counter-tendencies (cybernetics is useful here) technological unemployment in one sector has the impact of raising the pool of unemployed labour sector-wide, thereby reducing the drive for automation

On this occasion I do in fact have to support this kind of silliness

The Mexican player scored the penalty but they lost the game as a direct result of it

It is hard to express how good a job Gordon/Spence and Konsa/Rogers (and Konsa/Bellingham) did to defend every wide 2v2 there. Every single cross was so deep, heavily contested, and always an extra pass or two to work the space to get it off at all.

bellingham doing the whole "mexico's fans were magnificent, well done them" props 💉💉💉

god help me, I'm actually starting to believe now
