What I want from today... @mrjamesob.bsky.social opening the show, "Now that Zohran Mamdani has historically won the NY Mayoral race we have our first caller, Sadiq from London, what are your thoughts?" *Obvs James will take 25 mins to get to this point. 😃

@bdoubleo.bsky.social Happy birthday 🎂

Having loads of fun with @obsidian.net Grounded 2. Axl Tarantula Throne built, bit of infrastructure constructed, some exploring and a few run-ins with a Wolf Spider here and there.

Four weeks until #FM26! If anyone needs anything from me you have 'til Nov 4th to ask. After then, you're shit out of luck. #FootballManager26

🔴NEW🔴 Thread 🧵 @bylinetimes.bsky.social can now reveal that, during the crucial period when convicted Reform leader Nathan Gill was most active, working directly with Russian President Vladimir Putin’s most senior ally in Ukraine, he was also one of Nigel Farage’s closest confidantes 1/12

A hideous, and for traumatised British Jews profoundly unhelpful, expression of allyship & agreement with a violent, racist, serial criminal & former member of an avowedly anti-Semitic organisation from the *Israeli Minister of Diaspora Affairs* and so, as Sunder says, the Israeli government. 1/3

In Poland authorities have captured a Russian intelligence operative carrying explosive-filled cans, drone components, and SIM cards. In Lithuania, explosives were discovered in a cemetery. All part of a big Russian plot to commit terrorist attacks across Europe.

Javier Milei had to beg a bail-out and already needs another. Argentina's economy is in a tailspin. Gov't bonds and peso in freefall. People starving, throwing rocks at him. Farage last year: "He's amazing. It's Thatcherism on steroids. Cutting and slashing expenditure. That's leadership." SHARE!

America (particularly New York as it has an upcoming Mayoral election), dont believe the shit from Trump. London isnt a murderous, sharia law nightmare. It's a well run city led by a positive dem socialist in @london.gov.uk Much like @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social in NY. Get a mayor that delivers.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk This is a bloody goody speech from Rachel Reeves. #LabourPartyConference

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Please, please tell me it was Grok, Musk's "AI" that answered the increase in racism on Teitter question. @lbc.co.uk

@mrjamesob.bsky.social What an utterly brilliant description from the current caller on @lbc.co.uk . "Everyone else runs on Windows OS, I run on Mac OS", re autism.

Useful reminder from Peter Kellner on the problems we refuse to acknowledge are getting better, and the politics of hopelessness that this breeds open.substack.com/pub/kellnerp...

Nada. Zip. Nothing. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Great statement from Sadiq Khan. Agree 100%.

In other words, 94% of those killed in Gaza since March 25 were civilians - up from 83% in the first 1.5 years of this genocidal war. Another symptom of stage 2 of the Gaza Genocide under Trump: fewer casualties so far, but targeting almost entirely civilians. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

C'mon Manchester United!!

Today feels like a sit-on-my-ass and play Football Manager while watching Transfer Deadline say unfold on Sky Sports kinda-day. #TransferDeadlineDay #FM24

Looking forward to the media questioning Guardiola's system, whether he has what it takes to make it, and suggesting who is going to take over his job after his inevitable sacking. No. No? Oh, that's just for the Man United manager is it.

Superman (2025) was overall disappointing. The world could have been saved with some half dog training and a pocket of dog treats.

🔴 £74m is an *insane* sum of money for a player who scored 13 league goals last season. But Man United aren't paying it for the Benjamin Sesko of today, they're paying it for the Benjamin Sesko of tomorrow. Latest vid on why it's a steal... if it works. youtu.be/bWV_S7KAstw

Trump Still Polling Well With Working-Class American Pedophiles

“Farage, Anderson, Goodwin and Pearson frame their interventions as warnings – do what we say to prevent this deplorable violence. “That is certainly how they would choose to frame it. But the more you read and the more you hear of what they say, it sounds instead like a threat.”

@mrjamesob.bsky.social The real reason the convicted felon and adjudicated rapist Donald Trump hates windmills. @lbc.co.uk

“A catastrophic data breach.” For two years, the government took The News Agents to court over a leaked MOD document - under a super injunction. Now it’s lifted. @lewisgoodall.com reports on the hidden court that tried to silence us. Watch here. ▶️ www.globalplayer.com/videos/2JsSc...

@mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk Starmer thas to be (at least a bit) sycophantic, cos the UK is desperate for trade and influence. Macron can speak the truth because they have trade and they have influence. Brexit has forced Starmer's and the UK's hand.

Excellent interview with Lord Patten by @lewisgoodall.com on @newsagents.bsky.social podcast. Loved the description of Farage 😂

@mrjamesob.bsky.social With that second round of applause for the pilot, has Keith shown that he's one of these people that applaud when the plane lands? @lbc.co.uk

@mrjamesob.bsky.social I don't seem to have been receiving my paycheck for "our show"? 15 hrs a week for about 11 yrs. Can you pop it in to my bank today please? 😃😋

@mrjamesob.bsky.social Is the look a little bit like Zoolander's Blue Steel look? @lbc.co.uk

ABERDEEN FOOTBALL CLUB. 2024/25 SCOTTISH CUP WINNERS!!

C'mon The Dons!! #AberdeenFC #ScottishCupFinal

Gutted 😕

Am a Crystal Palace fan for the next 2 hours or so. #FACup

@mrjamesob.bsky.social There's three psychic triplets (the female one is the powerful one) that are essentially kept in a coma that predict murders, a computer engraves a ball with the victim and perpetrators names on them.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social, please don't take any family holidays to USA after calling Trump a fascist (which he is), or you may end up in El Salvador yourself.

Israeli soldiers murdered these medical workers, buried them in a mass grave, libelled them as terrorists and then lied about it. One of the ambulance crews' last words were: "I only chose this path because I wanted to help people." www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

C'mon Manchester United! A difficult match against a Forest team that are absolutely flying. Got to be wary of their counter attack.
