So it is currently a shambles in Indianapolis VGC. We've been on Swiss round 4 for 2 hours at this point. All because Champions doesn't have a local mode and the network can't handle it. Absolutely humiliating

Unacceptable from FOX and IMS again on the timing tower front. As I said in Arlington and will again - If I need to break out a third party timing app, your shit isn't good enough on screen. You can't even give us sector splits? #IndyCar

As first regionals go: having network connectivity issues midway through round 4 forcing the Swiss to be split in half is not a great sign of things to come for Champions.

Yeah, it's not really the best indicator for the game when one of the top players goes " I'm not going to be trying anything. It's not particularly conducive to be creative in this meta"

Got a haircut before Turin next week and I'm tempted to out there ™ but I also know it would look baad

Missing the cultural moment that was Bo Burnham's Inside.

Conversations with Google Support: "we really want to help you, but we can't do what you suggested", me: "Okay, so suggest something different", GS: "<crickets> but a really long email" All I want to do is get out of a €100 a year business subscription and preserve my YouTube account.

I know there's two months till the season starts but the fact that Watford still haven't hired a manager and there's no clear frontrunner is super concerning. Like I know we have sacked every manager but there's gotta be someone out there

$2000 is 28 current gen games and tbh Rayman Origins is probably better than them all put together so worth it

As basic and cynical a criticism as it is, it would help if our politicians were actually interested in their briefs and not having power for the sake of it

"More power does not necessarily imply something better. In this respect, the words of Romano Guardini remain relevant: "Contemporary man has not been trained to use power well.""

5 years since we last had a grand slam winner who isn't Djokovic, Nadal, Sinner or Alcaraz 🎾 10 years for Roland Garros!

Rockstar fired a bunch of their staff for trying to unionise and the remaining staff just unionised anyway. Game developers won’t be pushed around 🍻

been stewing over this for about 24 hours because it's hard to know where to start talking about it except wow, if this isn't the worst qualities of motorsport - the ones it now tries to keep hidden away in those cloistered VIP areas - gallery showcased www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/m...

Same folks who accused Susie Wolff of pillow talking with her husband and leading to her threatening to sue and the teams having to rally around for support.

“There were an estimated 1,556 fatalities in reported road collisions in GB in 2025” “Last year, 29,911 people were seriously injured or killed” “with 127,870 casualties of all severities.” Yet, “e-scooters” 👀 (While source of harm stares us in the face). www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Sony has officially announced that PlayStation 6 will run PlayStation 4 games even better than on PlayStation 5. paletteswap.site/dif...

Who really controls the Williams F1 team? A bitter legal battle has put this question centre stage

Happy pride month 🥳🥳

Someone with a nose piercing enters the deep south:

TIL heat is really killing a lot of people in Europe. hannahritchie.substack.com/p/heat-guns-...

And we nominally tell the companies not to dump raw sewage into the waterways and they just do it anyway.

Pokémon champion open team lists include the Pokémon's stat distribution. This means your opponent will know your Pokemon's speed before the battle. I really really hate this change

What the fuck ass haircut is that?! Anyway WOOOO DRAGON QUEST NEWSS

THIS. Man did the F3/F2 double, the surefire "This dude nice" indicator, and he didn't have a prayer of an immediate seat. This annoys me.

here, take this tiny clodsire

And yet I still can't find any ascended Heroes 😭😭

doxxing should be a specific named criminal offence, insane they get away with it

Serebii Note: The Pokémon Company have put out new figures on their corporate website As of March 2026: Over 515 million software sold (an increase of 26 million over last year) Over 85 billion cards produced (an increase of 10 billion over last year) www.serebii.net

It’s really frightening.

Happy 40th DQ! #art #dragonquest

If this heatwave has taught me anything: I need to get some summer PJ's

Interesting that the idea of another EU referendum is regularly discussed on broascast media as something that would cause division and thus a bad idea. But plans to deport literally millions of people are discussed as administrative questions.

Question for the train gays: If I'm buying a ticket for 3 people and 2 of them have a Railcard, does the discount include all three tickets or separately? Trainline is really vague for it

too warm to think? put 30 to 40 ice cubes in your ass. It's simple and convenient and you will not regret putting 30 to 40 ice cubes in your ass

I was looking at the final classification and Nolan Siegel finished a v respectable 11th. Maybe that third McLaren seat should be a swap seat with oval and road courses because Seigal is definitely more of an oval racer

If you're concerned about British heat and climate change don't worry, apparently the AMOC has passed the tipping point. Our climate will possibly be more like Iceland in 20 years time.

If only there had been previous evidence of Farage washing his hands of a project once the reality of how unworkable it was became unavoidable

Reform are so utterly beatable. We're acting like there's this inevitably of them seizing control of everything when 3 in 4 people think they're scum.

“In the space of a few years, the UK has moved from a broadly inclusive status-quo to being the most aggressively anti-trans developed democracy in the world.” www.liberalcurrents.com/the-end-of-t...

And for those of us with GRCs, we’re between a rock and a hard place: we’re no longer our gender in the EA, but still our gender in the GRA. If I were to marry, I’d be legally female at the ceremony, but when I needed the toilet at the reception, I’d be legally expected to use the men’s.

See if I was a competent government I would be using the period of extreme heat to have a go at reform and tories for their batshit anti net zero waffle

Again I think that if you work for a bank you have to have a bank holiday off. Doesn't matter how inconvenient it is to the customer I want to be drinking tinnies in the park not stopping fraud 😤😤😤

I was responsible for this (it was literally my idea while I was Product Manager for Media Playout at the BBC) and it is still my proudest achievement ever

she flopped but tasted better than both 💕

Errrr I don't think that's meant to do that folks

I wish drivers were less respectful about where they DNF

Well, that teammate beef is cancelled for another fortnight. #F1
