The Post is both right and complicit.

ten years later: wall to wall garbage pseudo-journalism telling right wingers all their worst impulses are correct

How to include truth in a headline

Champions of freakin Europe!!!!!!

This week's free little minifiction, on the start of both a scandalous novel and office intrigue. open.substack.com/pub/ezraezra...

Kind of hoping Spurs hold on here. Might preserve their status quo for another year, while competing in the CL either relegates them or bankrupts them through bad transfers, and fans will deludedly cling to this solitary trophy for decades as evidence of adequacy.

Without Havertz, Merino and Big Gabi we look decidedly lightweight on set pieces and in duels at either end

I fancy Palace in a 3-2 classic, with sloppy errors and a screamer or two

Swamp Thing and Captain Bone Saw

Here comes the left back cavalry

This regime's Sturmabteilung.

Robert Francis Prevost missed a trick in not naming himself Pope Bob I

I'm ok with that. Great performance, but not enough precision/legs/depth. We'll come back stronger next year.

Disgraceful and shameless of FU Berlin @freieuniversitaet.bsky.social to refuse to write "Taiwan" on phd diplomas - unless followed by "China". All gov't visas and permits have "Taiwan" with no qualification - cowardly and ignorant of the university to ignore the guidelines of its own government.

Holy shit, what a game. No way we're living with either of these teams in a final. 6-6

8 Weddings and 2 Funerals

Black rucola.

Lamine Yamal will be the world's best player before he's 20

Took us a while to get into the game, deserved to trail, then stepped up and deserved to at least equalise. Need some marginals to fall our way second half

Caldentey stunner! Great half by Arsenal to pull ahead in the tie. Doing a lot of running, hope we can maintain the high intensity in the second half.

Both keepers somewhat dazed and confused, flapping and wandering in the first 10 minutes #lyoars

Kavanagh often one of the worst refs for letting violent conduct slide in favour of nonsense cards - so must give credit for a deserved red and fair officiating here
