If it's any consolation to Spurs fans, Madrid is a brilliant city to "drink until you can no longer feel anything" in.

Plus the Prado is great with a hangover.

This result could pop the spurs bubble of optimism and bring them back down to earth with a bump.

You're all mocking them but I bet a hundred years from now every military school in the world will study and learn from the American strategy v Iran. That's legacy.

A mess.

(Well I usually use half then top back up. But you do need a lot for a loaf)

Just watched the first episode of that new Rooster show on sky. Genuinely funny. I lolled more than once and I'm a renowned misery guts.

I quite like that the main unit for discussing oil quantities is a "barrel". It's like referring to coffee production by referencing "price per mug".

Going in on the new series of The Capture which usually hits my sweetspot of BBC Sunday night total nonsense that I nevertheless seem to enjoy (see also the ridiculous nightsleeper and that one with the submarines)

Was Thai beef curry and sticky rice. And very nice it was too.

Not defending grok (that whole site can get in the fucking bin AFAIC) but we shouldn't forget it can only post vile posts about tragedies because it's learnt how to do it from actual REAL PEOPLE saying this shit. It's a human problem before it's a tech one.

Hmm. Thinking of grabbing a ticket to go and see Stella Donnelly at Yes.

No, you wouldn't know him. He goes to a different hard-line religious school.

Trump is playing 4D chess. He's calculated that if the US bombs salination plants then the Iranians will likely run out of salt in just a matter of weeks.

No but cercle rouge next on list. So interesting in terms of what ghost dog did with it. Plus big shades of strangers on a train for me

The watch

Just watched le samourai for the first time. (Partly as companion piece to ghost dog a bit ago). Was fucking excellent. Plus his watch is cool af. Sure @staggerlee42.bsky.social has views.

It's 2032. Wrexham have just lifted their third successive Champions League trophy. BBC commentators doggedly stick to the "plucky underdog" narrative.

Not seen: A farmer with a boat and a bag of grain scrumpling up his plans and throwing them away in a tearful fit of defeated pique

Genuinely initially read this as a mixed up version of "Curry warmed up in the Crockpot and the onions are good."

Has any man ever thrived this hard? Probably not

My most unpopular opinion is that farming out the death penalty for child murderers to the hard faced horrible cunts they share prison wings with is a societal failure and instead of relishing when one gets killed, we should be ashamed our prison system is so broken.

07.03.2026 10:28 ๐Ÿ‘ 160 ๐Ÿ” 19 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 5 ๐Ÿ“Œ 6

Completely agree. If you celebrate the fact that prison is unsafe, even for the very worst people, you may as well support the death penalty.
