AI, making dumb people dumber. JFC however we survived as a species, we certainly won't survive for long with this generation in charge.

Screenshot of email from Proud Lilywhites. Picture of Progress Pride flag with Spurs cockerel overlaid. Text: Dear David, We wanted to let you all know that Slavia Prague have asked the Club to remove the Progress flag from the North East corner for tonight's game. They've said they have security concerns on their side if it stays in place. The Club pushed back but Slavia have held their position. As with any visiting team request of this kind, the Club is honouring it on safety grounds. We are of course frustrated. You don't get to come to our house and dictate what's acceptable, let alone kick off about a flag that represents our own community. But here we are. We wanted you to hear it directly from us. We wanted to be sure that you know that this is an opposition team request and no reflection of the Club's commitment to the Proud Lilywhites. Love and Solidarity Proud Lilywhites Committee

Fuck this shit.

If I was religious, I'd say a prayer or light a candle, alas all I can do is send best wishes and hope. I'm sure he'll fly through it. Just do the whole "My son requires some quiet time lads" in the Irish mammy voice and am sure you'll be grand 😆

That's great news! Best of luck to your son. I'm sure you can convince them to be quiet for half an hour if needs be 😉

I'm in social housing (Housing trust) and I'm immensely grateful to have it. Husband a stroke survivor so we're low income. The silver lining is that if anything happens to us, the house goes to our son (once he's living here). He considers himself lucky, most of his friends are in similar situation

No, thankfully, it's a few miles away from me. Really windy here now though. How are you coping with the shit weather and the house works?

More than 9,000 children in Gaza hospitalised for acute malnutrition in October, UN says Aid agencies say Israel is still restricting their aid shipments despite ceasefire announced two months ago Malnutrition continues to take a toll among Gaza’s young despite a ceasefire declared two months ago, with more than 9,000 children hospitalised for acute malnutrition in October alone, according to the latest UN figures. While the immediate threat of famine has receded for most of the 2.2 million Palestinians in Gaza after the ceasefire announcement on 10 October, the UN and other aid agencies report continuing Israeli restrictions on their humanitarian aid shipments, which they say fall well below the needs of a population weakened and traumatised by two years of war, homelessness and living in flimsy shelters.

I managed to swipe this from Twitter and downloaded it (from a search) and sent it on whatsApp to my 28 yr old son (that lives with us) with the caption "How to put on a masterclass of amateur management on an epic level". It's appalling and shameful.
