Just had my first Fisherman's Friend in years. Used to love them, and I can see why. Almost as good as Olbas pastilles.

I couldn't possibly hate this competition more and I think people engaging with it are partly responsible for the degradation of the sport.

They had San Marzano tomatoes on the vine in the supermarket the other day, which I take as a kind of bat signal to do a pizza night. Made everything from scratch except the mozzarella, which I'm thinking of making myself next time. Pretty happy with the results for a home oven.

Another plug for this, it’s good yenno. 👍

I've just impulsively written my first article in probably half a decade, so it would be nice if you would read it. It's about how Florian Wirtz will be used by Slot, if that helps interest you. I think its alright. medium.com/@Kopology/wh...

I have never liked any Star Wars (except for the spaceship designs and sound effects in the original three movies) but Andor is absolutely brilliant. Exactly how sci fi should be: gritty, politically rich and telling very real, familiar stories in an other worldy setting. No notes.

You've just got home from the pub. You're a bit pissed, and excited about Florian Wirtz. You're going to want to read this. medium.com/@Kopology/wh...

Was supposed to go to the shop to pick up some things for my gf but got carried way writing and by the time I was done the shops were all closed. Now I have to do an hour long walk to the closet open place.

Having a player like Hato cover two positions presents a risk, but if you have several players in the squad who can also shift position, in the way both Grav and Bacjetic can drop to CB, that risk is mitigated. It's only if Kerkez, Van Dijk and Konate are all out that it becomes a major issue.

The ultimate play here is to get upwards of 45m for both Robbo and Quansah, replace them both with Hato as our new third choice CB and LB rotation, then sign Warton to share DM with Grav and have both Bacjetic and Grav as 4th/5th CB cover if Kerkez is injured. Risky, but also possibly brilliant.

If you can get 20m for Robertson and replace him with Hato would can play LB and CB, that would be very smart business.

I remain absolutely convinced that the biggest issue for anyone wanting a better, fairer world remains 'thick cunts'. Sounds reductive & lazy but capitalism has spawned huge populations of people with nasty mindsets, incapable of critical thought. Until that changes the world will only get worse.

I've been using AI for a project I'm working on and in the appropriate context, it's a brilliant tool. The problem is that thick people won't understand the limitations and appropriate uses, and they are also the people likely to lean on it most.

Really hoping Arsenal get Sesko. He's the kind of player I really don't like. Shit first touch, which ought to rule a player out from any top side. He's like the antithesis of Wirtz.
