#euroroadchamps potentially one of the best races of the year and TNt have the commentator that can’t call a finish on it. Feels like mistake. Being able to discern when action is happening and describing it accurately feels like a fundamental part of the role. 🙄

Turns out changing half your side and having a tragedy in the team doesn’t exactly make for a settled, coordinated start to a season. Don’t really know what else people expected tbh.

Which football stat most makes you do this? Mine is that centreback and gigantic head Steve Bruce scored 114 goals across his career and once scored 19 in a season.

'Farage Boats' is a useful term and should be normalised.

Genuinely worried for Lowry’s heart there! Beating the US, expecially now, especially with Trumpers like DeChambeau in the team, especially with the dumbass spectators, is especially delicious.

“The most” is a helluva shout. I mean, he’s not.

Opta whatnow?

Counterpoint to which races are worth watching: The ones Pogacar isn’t in (unless Vingegaard or MvdP are involved). The ones MvdP isn’t in (unless it’s a flat sprint or Pog is involved). TTs without Remco (unless Ganna is on form). Utter dominance is dull.

It’s not a horror movie in the genre sense, it’s just that’s how all Travolta films are correctly described since 1998.

This quote is 10x better if you read it in Trump’s voice

Freddy Church was man of the match IMHO. Nyoni was also quietly excellent.

I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again. Ignore the haters, London is the 🐐

Wild take. Utterly wild.

Ryan Gravenberch is one of the best players in the world now. What team wouldn’t he get in?

If I’m honest, satire seems less subtle in parody comedy these days…

Very competent people doing very competent things. Certainly we missed out not having them run the country.

Happy first anniversary to the Guardian's finest ever ragebait listicle. A pure, triple-distilled teeth-itching irritant of 'Britain = the south of England' windup merchantry. Absolutely no notes, the greatest to ever do it

I love London so much. So much. Did you know that London has the lowest level of ethnic violence of any city of comparable size in the world? Multiculturalism has in fact worked here. They just don’t want it to be true because we happen to have a Muslim mayor.

Robert Redford was my favorite, it’s hard to process that he is gone. His performances made more movies beloved to me than anyone else, I’d take The Sting over any other film for flawless perfection. We don’t expect famous people to also be good people but he was. He belongs to the ages

Groypers are small elastic bands used during vasectomies. A single groyper is strong enough to support the weight of seventeen family-sized jars of Hellmann’s Mayonnaise.

Slogan ideas… “Smoking hot body or your money back” – crematorium “The first one’s on the house” – chimney installers “We’re not afraid to raise a few eyebrows” – plastic surgeons “We’ll help bring out your inner child” – maternity ward “There’s no turning back now” – neck brace manufacturers

TIL: the hospital fee for Julia Roberts’ birth was paid for by Martin Luther King Jnr. The actuall MLK.

@millsish.bsky.social Mike Mills says “Love your posts on BlueSky, but wasn’t it “that low plane, fine, then” not “flying” , then? I remember you said it was from a roadside sign about watch out for low planes flying. But that was a long time ago.” So Im doing my best. Thx Mike!🫰xxx

“There’s no way we’re letting you go, you have a contract until 2028.” “If you don’t let me go I’ll tell everyone how you keep winning…” “We’re mutually letting you exit your contract at the end of this year.”

Curtis Jones needs more of a mention today - he changed the balance of the game when he came on. After his introduction Liverpool had much the better of the midfield.

Lot of cramp - easy to forget in a game like that how hard everyone is working. What a great result! 🙌

Cyclists, don't forget to wear hi viz!

I can

Saw The Killers, Coldplay and U2 all on stage at the same time. Admittedly, this is many people’s idea of hell, but it was ace. Also saw Amy Winehouse lamp someone in the face at Glasto and Springsteen play with The Gaslight Anthem. Killers and Pet Shop Boys playing together was top, too.

Watching that shootout

I honestly think the world is sleeping on how increasingly fundamentalist and less tolerant India is becoming (the world’s biggest population, no less):

You say Sedaka and I say Sodoku. Sedaka. Sodoku. Sodoku. Sedaka. Let's call the Neil thing math.

I see this and honestly my first thought is that Jimmy White is unlikely to help here but it’s fascinating that he’s getting involved
