i'm taking a brave stance that may get me canceled: there is no reason for the pervert glasses to exist

Oh. And carry an Egyptian Dog god around the stadium.

“I could write three books on my time at Everton”. No, you couldn’t and if one where he is a mere smidgen of the story is anything to go by, it would be a dire offering

The reference to a player “who didn’t wanna play, almost” was really poor form. Similar to Benitez throwing out in his own post-sacking media career that an unnamed player had been injured moving furniture. A real snide.

ICO writes to Meta over 'concerning' AI smart glasses report Videos, including of glasses-wearers using the toilet or having sex, are sometimes reviewed by a Kenya-based subcontractor.

Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...

the one who loved horses, the one who was a great goalkeeper, the one who kept a diary every day, the one who held her sister's hand when they walked to school, the one who read Harry Potter in English, the one who collected old coins, the one who drew rainbows for her grandmother ...

The @ipso.co.uk ruling of Telegraph’s preposterous “We earn £345k but soaring private school fees mean we can’t go on five holidays”, reveals the article to have been a fabrication. There is no such family as Al, Alexandra, Ali, Harry and Barry Moy. Glad to have acted as lead complainant on this.

Woman sues Kenbridge, police after chief allegedly tipped off shooting suspect The town of Kenbridge and its police department are facing a lawsuit of more than $140 million.

A woman’s ex boyfriend, who is a cop, threatens to shoot her

Women are at the highest risk for being killed when they try to leave a relationship.

She calls 911 for help & the Police Chief WARNS the boyfriend instead.

Boyfriend opened fire on her car

We aren’t angry enough.

Remember when Everton used to have Saturday 3pm home games? Nah, me neither.

Last night I was sitting with the baby in his stroller while mom and dad spoke on a panel (so fancy)! This child looked me in my eyes, said, “I want to go outside” and then, a millisecond later, added “BY MYSELF” and immediately tried to escape out the front door

Walking around the baby/child sections of major retailers is a real roller-coaster ride between ‘oh, that is unbearably cute’ and ‘the world has gone totally mad’.

The Spectator The Greens clearly think they can ride to power on the back of the self-pity of overeducated urban leftists and the religious anger of certain Muslim constituencies Brendan O'Neill

The Spectator A good pub quiz question in the year 2050 will go something like this: 'True or false, the "green" in the "Green Party" originally referred to the environment.' By this point, the etymological origins of Britain's sectional Islamic party will be as obscure as the relationship between British Conservatives and 17th century Irish bandits. A key milestone, our mid-century quiz regular will inform his teammates, was the 2026 Gorton and Denton by-election in which the Greens stood neck and neck in a three-way race with Labour and Reform before voting opened.

Nadia, this is a solid thread, but don't forget:

It was missing from your list, and matters.

Poor Matt Goodwin. All he ever wanted was to be a hard working MP/academic/tv presenter/commentator/writer/pollster/wealth adviser/women’s health guru and you all ripped that away from him. A shame

Worth noting his objection to no fault divorce. I worked a bit on the campaign for that, and one of the striking things with the scholarship was the evidence that demonstrated allowing it led to a drop in suicides of married women.

This is a massive shift which would upend the lives of millions - not just the nearly half million directly threatened but their families. It would abandon a basic principle of law that changes are not retrospectively applied.

Let me just make a few little adjustments to that title…

You can see why the Reform Party didn’t adopt this bird as their mascot.

Mourinho has surpassed himself here. Absolutely dreadful.

Wow.
