I've made a start and a work in progress. As ever, recommendations welcome. I'll add hashtags for the new season. I shouldn't be in it but it is default as the creator!
Of course, what they mean by freedom is their freedom to do whatever they want to other people. Not our freedom to complain about it.
McCarthyism is back with a vengeance on both sides of the Atlantic, with major government clampdowns on people challenging official narratives. Yet we hear not a peep from those who get so exercised about students not wanting fascists to speak at universities. Cos that's the real threat, isn't it?
Funny how all the "free speech" warriors go so quiet when actual state censorship comes along.

Tbc, the ultra-wealthy now supposedly fleeing Dubai are a relatively small part of the UAE's economic relevance
The mostly South Asian middle class 20-30 times their size and the presence of literally over a trillion dollars in sovereign wealth will likely keep it a regional pole of accumulation
Some sixth-tier action, and a pic of Enfield's glorious art deco stand. A shame clubs like Dagenham see Wrexham's as a model to follow rather than their opponents yesterday, one of Britain's most likeable and admirable clubs. But these are the times we live in
NEW: Two senior MOD whistleblowers with inside knowledge of Palantir's systems have come forward to @thenerve.news to say government ministers are ignorant of the grave national security risks the technology poses.

I cant work out whether Manosphere sounds more like a 1990s Amsterdam gay bar with an eye watering darkroom, or an industrial estate leisure centre with a two pound discount if you do both the paintballing and the tenpin bowling.
Either way those were memorable stag weekends.
If there is one thing that the elites of the US capitalist class and their mouthpieces can’t countenance, it is the idea that there are people out there living richer, kinder, more fulfilling and spiritually rich lives than they can offer. The average Iranian is better than them in every single way.
And I am so weary, tired, and bored of the upright explanations of mainstream figures who think they can soothe over our governments’ limitless complicity with some realpolitik version of ‘hate the sin, love the sinner’ rhetoric. This empire is an irredeemable stain on the souls of every one of us.
Iran has produced some of the most beautiful literature, poetry, mythologies and cosmologies, architecture, music, art and cinema in history, acts of communion which the world is blessed to have received. Trump and Hegseth have produced nothing but shitty buildings and sexual assault police reports.
Best Six Nations ever?
the uk no1 single on the day max dowman was born was some streaming nonsense nobody cares about because it’s long after people stopped giving a toss about the charts, that’s how young max dowman is
This is all true but what irks about Wrexham is the infantilisation of everything around them. The "All hail the Hollywood saviours" stuff. And why the hell should anyone in L1 or the Championship be impressed?They've overtaken us by spending loads more money than us.Nothing more. It's no fairytale
Is mid-table PL competence what Content Demanders want though?

Where does the funding for GB News come from. It is pumped everywhere
Is the worst of football, thr media and others celebrate the wrong things now. I guess if they stagnate in the championship then people get bored. Thats why it all has to be quick
West Ham vs Leeds in the quarter final of the FA Cup is on Easter Sunday. My niece is coming over and the trains are fucked but I’m seriously considering going anyway. 9000 Leeds fans and a history of unrest between us suggests a level of chaos that can’t be missed. It’s what Jesus would have wanted
Some of us never started x
I had not realised BuzzFeed was still going? I actually liked it when it was a celebrity gossip site with inane personality quizzes.
Please sign to save the Hare & Hounds.
The aim of this petition is to save the Hare and Hounds Ground for local football to return to the local community and also hopefully to reform Leyton FC (1868 - 2011) as a local community run football club.

There was more than enough evidence available at the time to disqualify Mandelson.
The PM now accepts he was wrong to appoint him.
He must also accept Labour Together was and is poisonous and divisive - and needs to excise it from govt and the party.

And it's all loans anyway
At what point do Wrexham's owners stop being interesting, and worth being talked about every five fucking minutes? (The answer is of course that they have never been interesting).
Hard not to see Swansea as a sort-of proxy Orient in a higher division, adorned as they are by the two best O's players of the past decade #WrexhamvSwansea
Very sad news. Brian was an epic publication - late 80s/early 90s football fanzine culture at its anarchic, witty best leftlion.co.uk/features/202...
