The wholesale changes to the back 4 make me very nervous. This is exactly the kind of game that Carlos switches off in.

Everything Everything were *unbelievable* in Brum last night. There's nothing quite like the alchemy you get when a band is on top form with a fully engaged crowd in a great venue. Best gig I've been to this year.

Genuinely surprised that Bombay Bicycle Club came in at #1! It's 2014 all over again...

Their set in Notts was genuinely joyous though - one of the highlights of the year for sure.

It's only right for award winning podcasting

Here’s a short story about who wins and loses from the status quo of our inheritance tax rules - and about, what you might politely call ‘sub-optimal’ journalism🧵

● Dyson owns 36,000 acres

Worth it for the photo alone!

Steven Davis - most forgotten Villa player of the last 20 years

Jeremy Clarkson is turning up to the protest tomorrow.

A reminder that he bought his 312-acre farm in 2012 for £4.25million in HIS OWN WORDS so that he:

*would not be required pay death duties on the land*

For a guy that supposedly knew nothing about Project 2025, he sure is putting a metric shit ton of them in his administration.

My reporting on China is admittedly very poor

Absolutely grim how completely Trump has captured the UFC and its audience. Every PPV has become a festival of propaganda with even the biggest fighters debasing themselves to kiss the ring.

The Onion is the last great American institution

No agreed, this is (hopefully) a much better alternative

Villathreads was fun for 72 hours though ✌️

Admittedly, these are going to get quite obscure

I'm sorry but I don't think you can do "oh the Dems didn't talk about this one issue I love so that's why they lost" in *this* election, democracy was and is on the line, Trump is a horrible man who ran a horrible campaign, sometimes you have to just face the reality of the electorate being awful
