This means you'll likely never get to find out just how good @afcbpodcast.com is, that's a shame ;)

Codemasters are gonna chase this for IP infringement

Acting like you never played a table top game back in the day

Don't be silly

They were "better" qualified because you were overqualified

You probably bothered to actually answer the phone

Be "better"

Be the better you deserve

Stop looking outside

It's honestly not that deep

It's not easy either, but it's not complicated, it's just difficult

Hahaha, I feel like I should have clearly died decades ago

They'll near shit themselves when they find out that some numbers I don't actually remember, but I remember where my fingers went so pull the number from the muscle memory instead

I just kinda wish we ALL stopped voting for parties, and started voting for representation and policies instead

TBF Given the way numbers work, nearly 50% HAVE to be below average

And I'd bet given the amount of films we never even hear of let alone see, I'd wager that actual average is a lot lower standard than we think it is

It's a drum I've been banging for about two decades now, so I've maybe brainwashed myself a little bit

Weirdly the idea of citizens assemblies was one I came across long afterwards. I just think the commons and civil service could be made up of partitioned random groups from relevant parties

Just wear them a touch lower

It becomes platonic, and weirdly much more comfortable

Wait shit, have I become asexual??

This is why democracy has been utterly broken for decades now

Time to bring in sortition and remove this celebrity circus popularity contest

It's just 'Britain's Got Liars' at this point

That's a great thing to have, not everything needs to be finished or polished

I wish I could follow my own advice, I'd much rather have loads of WIP than just loads of half forgotten ideas

Precisely why we need to remove the cult of personality from our electoral process

Sortition is surely the only genuine way forward

You are home

When this nation projected itself upon the entire globe it also until the need to look after those places it took over

That's how responsibility works

My history is mine (and it's mostly, poorly dealt with), what I'm devastated about is that those same trials might be foisted upon others

And misplaced hatred is exactly how that happens

But thank you, please share that empathy with folk in similar but different situations

Thin end of the wedge

Anyone asking for a limit of one or two games a season is simply inviting the league to become a Harlem Globetrotters circus

What's needed is not an allowance but a double down, no league points can be earned from fixtures played at neither teams designated home ground

Aaaahh Paedos are fine, but wearing a dress bad

That's a fucking weird hill to die on

Having grown up in care in the 80s, and having been repeatedly raped during that time I can say that none of my abusers used gender dysmorphia as a beard to hide their abuses behind

Fuck Streeting, hateful cunt

Manchester’s chief flag-raiser has put his people smuggling days behind him Flags protesting unchecked immigration have gone up across the city, led by a man caught smuggling migrants into the country in the back of a van

Amazing story: one of the organisers of the group putting Union Flags up around Manchester previously did time for being part of a people smuggling gang.

No doubt about the figurehead thing, but the folk are following him not the movement, hence him needing embarrassment rather than martyrdom

The whole thing however is just another reason why I think it's time for sortition, democracy is over, nothing more than a 'Britains Got Liars' talent show

Don't let him be martyred, we need the sobering sight of him being convicted to really show his ridiculous followers how wrong they were

Really liking the look of Junior

Plus he's eating black boots which has bonus points for old timers like me

Things I liked

Adams first half track back
Adli beating defenders for fun
Truffert proving me right that he's best crosser since Francis
Brooks doing Brooks things
Christie being back on the pitch
Smudge still being ridiculous
Dia and Senesi better

Things I didn't

Our finishing could be better
