Arteta disgracing himself as usual at SJP.

Europe are wearing red today and USA blue?

Same.

Is there a thing about teachers chaperoning kids on trains that compels them to stand up and half-block the aisle for everyone else?

I hate Reform as much as the next person, but let’s not pretend % of MPs is a good marker for how many news bulletins a party should be in. Reform got 14% of the popular vote last year and, presumably, news bulletins frequently feature > 1 party.

Sorry but this is what I think of when I read Carbone and food.

It’s not great that the @peterbradshaw1.bsky.social review of a film about Lucy Letby managed to make (at least one) entirely false claim about Letby’s own testimony, is it? Did it not go through proper legal review because it was only in the review section? (The correction isn’t really helping.)

Eurostar just emailed me to tell me I might need an ETA for my upcoming trip I’m taking on Eurostar… to the UK. 🤔

Real-world UX design: if you’re sending out a renewal email or physical letter make it absolutely clear near the top (preferably in bold) whether renewal is automatic. Don’t make me hunt to find whether I actually have to do anything or not. Grrr. 😡

Always had a soft spot for this picture - the woman (and her coat) were perfectly timed and placed :) Stokksnes #Iceland March 2017

That might be the worst LBW DRS review of all time.

I see, once again, official club accounts are announcing signings and saying “for an undisclosed fee”. I will die on the hill that this is a ridiculous thing to do.

Surely Isla needs a pronunciation guide, too?

I haven’t watched a game as poor as Liverpool vs Arsenal since… umm… Leeds vs Newcastle yesterday.

Sourdough toast is amazing. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Well, we still have that League Cup.

Chris Sutton is an unbearable twerp.

Watching a video about visiting Aoraki/Mount Cook. The adoption of Maori names is great, but the way the narrator keeps saying “Aoraki Mount Cook” makes it sound like Mount Cook has a sponsor, similar to Emirates Old Trafford.

Leeds going down, they’re yelling Timber!

Sky Sports really don’t need to show Eze every two minutes. It adds absolutely nothing to the football-watching experience.

Well “Protection” had all the indicators it was gonna be another great ITV police drama with a bitter of a twist. Turns out it was a load of crap.

A marketing email a day is way too many marketing emails.

What if I don’t want a meal deal and I just want a bottle of pop at a reasonable price?

Excellent advert for proper “just whack it” penalties in the Supercup.

Now! When do we want them?! More films like Memento! What do we want?!

Apropos of nothing youtu.be/keGo_3zxoA8?...

Darren Fletcher’s commentary is nauseous.

This is a beautifully succinct explanation of the solution to the Monty Hall problem.

“Your password must contain at least one number, one lowercase letter and one uppercase letter and be 8-16 characters long”. 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

Interesting use of “literally” for something that literally didn’t happen.

Protip that may upset some Italians: throw a chipotle chilli in your pizza sauce. You won’t regret it.

Are we meant to just rebury Lindow Man in the bog near Wilmslow so he can enjoy the sounds of Manchester Airport once again?

Had some hiking fun in and around Edale at the weekend.

1000%

Pointless question: with celebrity TV shows, do they make sure to pick people who all have different names so they can be referred to easily?

Wibble

So after all the chat about whether India had a chance without Bumrah, they won the two games in which he didn’t play and none of the ones in which he did. (This isn’t meant as a slight on him - India won in spite of him being missing, not because of it.)

Someone photoshop a 22 inch rat next to a capybara.

Peak cricket today. Both good and bad.

The Peak District: where you either get 5G or nowt.

Quordle in 6 💁🏻‍♂️

This is why episodes of 24 weren’t an hour long.

Apropos of nowt, this was a banger: youtu.be/3o7XIba1ApQ?...

This person has never had haggis.

My Instagram feed is now full of screenshots that are videos that you can’t even read before they get covered by buttons saying “Watch more reels” and “Watch again”. How did social media apps get so anti-UX. 😡

Controversial opinion: women’s football would be improved if they put their names below their numbers.

Does middle-aged meaning something different in North America? I’ve just watched a video where the presenter was talking about creating a persona for a middle-aged user and then chose a 30-year-old woman! 🙃

This is really cool. Not all Dr. Brocks can paint like this, sadly.

I love the idea that only those directly involved are allowed an opinion on how taxes are spent. Not an MP? Don’t talk about MP’s pay! Not a soldier? Don’t talk about defence spending. Not a medical professional? Best not hear you talking about the NHS. Not a female boomer: no Waspi opinion for you.
