Ahhhh remember the good old days (like a few years ago) where you'd just go to youtube and watch through all the movie trailers to see whats coming up or looks interesting...

Now you spend most of the time trying to work out if its an actual thing or just AI/self edited slop :-\

Looks like is all BSky (and maybe some Mastodon) from now on

For so many reasons best out of there anyway I think, no less than the fact despite one of the potential reasons for banning an account was spam, I dont send any but tend to receive nothing but!

Well looks like my loophole backdoor into Xitter/#oldtweetdeck has not just been closed, so has my whole account.... sad that after 17+ years looks like the journey is over but also prob a good thing to be done and move on instead of grimly holding on to past glories on whats turned to a cesspool

Yeah much as I enjoyed it a bit surprised it did last as long as it did... sad that after 17+ years looks like the Xitter journey is over (I assume no point appealing?) but also prob a good thing to be done and move on instead of grimly holding on to past glories

was so close to trading him out a GW or two back, so glad I didnt now... even if that 23 in GW9 was on my bench 😭

But that goal, really was just Sonny Puskas 2.0!

That said I got used to playing Pro Cycling Manager for a while and much as I enjoyed that game I rarely bought it or got invested in playing til a month or so in as that was often released so buggy it took that long to sort it... so not expecting anything that level from #FM26 🀣

anyway from what I saw looking good, and cautiously optomistic now. Get the feeling we may have a few more bugs in early access than we normally do with FM but thats expected with new engine, some stuff just doesnt show til mass roll out... but once they are sorted whats there is looking good #FM26

Dammit, yesterday I got lost watching that playthrough vid and the interviews.... thought today I'd have a chance to catch up on RL stuff before FM26 drops but oh no now theres all the CC dropping their alpha play vids to distract me LOL #FM26

Seems to be verified info of an AirACT (operating for Emirates Cargo) 747-400F in the water at HKG after a possible vehicle collision.

I really love how in England they have modified No Kings to No Tyrants out of local sensibilities whilst in Ireland they are all like NO KINGS, do I stutter.

Ugh game starts and everything you click on on Paramount is showing studio stuff from the early game not the Glory game... finally found it thankfully #ALeague #PERvWEL

Maybe patch has negative connotation of "there was a problem that we fixed" rather than adding a new feature 🀷

Yeah totally separate not good... given fact that they've made a point that womens is seamless from mens and you can load/career float between both you'd hope international the same still

I'd take a guess that they were trying for a different term like module to avoid using the update/dlc terms knowing some would jump straight to the negative "it'll be charged" "microtransactions!" panic that come with that and just sounded more confusing instead #FM26

Football Manager and FIFA sign multi-year partnership Elevating authenticity to truly global heights, we’re delighted to have signed our first partnership with FIFA, football’s world governing body.

Think is a good sign with the new licensing and not rushed it out that they have put decent effort in to something revamped and new that works better than the old borky international system

Yes annoying to have to wait further but hopefully will see something worthwhile when it does drop #FM26

The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken.  How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."

Finally, first green arrow for the season πŸ₯³πŸŽ‰

Given played the WC would have been really disappointed if I hadnt, but then up against a lot of Haaland TCs you never know...

A bit earlier than I like for WC but given 3 FTs rolled currently and the 5 afcon boost not a huge issue #FPL

Shows the difference when you cough it up and give up a goal when in front vs when you do it while a couple of goals down and needing everything to go right... Just deflates you #afl #aflgf

Ok chip question for the #FPL #FPLCommunity hivemind, think I have this right but wanted to check... Just made 2 FTs now, I know I can still play the WC chip later... but still have the FH option as well yeah? reverts back to at last lockout not as it is when chips played/after the 2 FT's?
