England up 1 deciding to sit back and do nothing with 9 in the box for a half hour against Argentina in the World Cup

Solemnly reversing my England flag back to racist

Hydration break

If this case progresses, it will be an interesting reckoning for Reform’s position on online speech It relates to a post on X, but Lucy Connolly was celebrated as a "political prisoner" and given a speaking slot at Reform conference after being jailed for an X post

Wildfires in Europe so far this summer have led to Spain's deadliest in decades, with temperature anomalies peaking around +9°C in France and Germany and a high of 45.1°C in southern Spain. But how is the UK 'fire wave' after its first 'megafire' that burnt for four days in Dava Moor in May? 1/n

“Bad actors often exploit reporting systems in an attempt to get journalist or activist accounts removed, and are sometimes successful—in some cases, even when there is no violative content,” EFF’s @jillian.bsky.social told @netranews.bsky.social.

Noooo

absolutely insane story, and yeah, just looking at this chart... with the exception of maybe two people, this entire class was cheating like motherfuckers

demonisation? He meant coverage, surely?

Saying you're the "most physically attacked" MP when two MPs have been killed in the last decade is just horribly self-absorbed.

Is this a regular thing in the US or other countries?

I wonder if Infantino will now set up a Freedom 2026 Cup with the US, Russia, China, Venezuela, Eritrea, South Sudan, and Saudi Arabia and configure the rules so that the US can get on the podium.

"it's hard to believe other countries wouldn't have done exactly the same" lol

Why yes, that’s a Spain fan air guitarring an inflatable Iberico ham leg. How can you not be romantic about the World Cup.

what now

we are one day away from the funniest VAR offsides graphic ever

Hosts who actively cheated to win a World Cup. Italy 1934 Argentina 1978 (v Peru to make the final) Trump joins Mussolini & general Videla He has over-ridden the red card rules but the USA are prob not going to the semifinal

Both teams playing for the hydration break. It really does change the game into four quarters tactically.

I have such an expertly curated algorithm that I'm seeing posts from Mexican street food restaurants in the US and this is how they're advertising the game tomorrow night. "Good vibes"

She’s either insane or a visionary.

Another call to bring this to the UK!

Add your name to the union-backed petition to tell the HSE that we need a maximum working temperature www.megaphone.org.uk/petitions/we...

A reminder: How hot is too hot for humans? For years, scientists thought people could tolerate up to 35°C (95°F) wet-bulb temperature. But lab tests found healthy young adults start losing the ability to cool themselves at ~31°C (88°F) wet-bulb. theconversation.com/how-hot-is-t...

A top-hole read, what!

A discussion about the social media ban on under 16s. BBC: “You’re gong to have a lot more time to fill. What will you do?” Student: “Stare at a wall.”

It’s funny watching conservatives realise nobody believes their ‘free markets, low tax and low regulation’ nonsense so they just all seamlessly pivot to blood and soil ethnonationalism instead. Like, we always knew that’s what you were really about, lads. It’s just the liberals that believed you.

Has a British commentator ever tried to emulate the gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal celebration?

Fucked up

This Belfast womens collective is raising funds to help victims. chuffed.org/project/1854...

English commentators need to stop analysing Northern Ireland through an English lens! When you see anti-immigrant riots in Belfast, Ballymena or Larne and immediately reach for "Britain's far-right problem", you're missing half the story. This isn't just racism. It's loyalist terrorism. 1/
