Why are people queuing round the block for… sushi dog at warren st?

This is perfect London weather, right? Any warmer than this and it’s unbearable. This is dreamy.

The greatest smell

I don't understand who the BBC's "AI Agatha Christie" is aimed at. If you care enough about writing your own stuff to take advice, surely you want it from an actual human. People who'd take writing tips from an AI will just use an AI to write. Seems like pure gimmickry.

Debunking "Arsenal shoot poorly in semifinals," how I fell ass-backward into disproving a narrative with a big assist from @scott.cannonstats.com. Per Scott, Arsenal have scored 0 goals in their last five semifinal matches since 2022 - that's Newcastle, Liverpool and now PSG. On 6.6 xG. Bad! (1/x)

As per, Scott brings a lot of value with the debrief. One of the thoughts I'd had that comes through here - Ødegaard one of many w/a negative balance early, but never built up enough positives to get back to +. Screen 2 rings true: Not good enough in the game but the season angle getting overdone

I’m watching something where they seem to have ADRd every line for a few actors and hoo boy

So basically just sort of banning people who enjoy a sport for fun really?

Sinners is so goddamn good.

Sorry but what on earth has happened to them in three days

TV commissioners be like

Does this also ban Trans Women from playing at a grassroots level? Completely fucking outrageous. Our league is FA. Our club is FA. We have trans and NB sisters in our teams and our rivals. If we care about this subject we have to act as a collective.

There's a Japanese guy on YouTube who grows crops from supermarket produce. It's a great channel. Watching one video of his will illustrate how "Just grow your own food" is terrible advice from someone who has never grown food.

Not even the wit to suggest that the other photos have it photoshopped out!

the devastating yearning to get eaten out

Andor has entered its nail biting spycraft thriller era. Holy cow. Episode 5 is getting Le Carre-esque.

‘Men will turn themselves into women just to get into the women’s loos!!!’ Karen have you SEEN the queues for those things? If Dave is going to put on a fabulous outfit and heels just to get his perve on in the Wyndham’s Theatre bathroom he’s going to have to wait 25 minutes with the rest of us.

An anytime day return from Eastbourne to London is now £84. An ‘off peak’ ticket is £45. I drove to London and back 5 times this week and spent £48 on petrol. Driving it is from here on I guess. Sorry planet!

What a game this is

What a goal from inter. Feel less bad about our 3 min concession now.

Shot chaser etc. it’s always fucking queerphobic men.

Sinners is about so much but the thing I keep thinking about is how it’s a commentary on the ghouls, frauds and ‘vampires’ who devour the skills of the talented to improve their own lot. It’s a horror movie about vampires but it’s also, to me, about the studio system, about suits, and about tech.

There's not a single crime in the history of the UK that would have been prevented by a bathroom bill. Not one Bathroom bills aren't about safety, they're about trying to exclude LGBT people from public life. That's it

How am I just now realizing this? Oscar Issac’s character in Star Wars: POE DAMERON Nicholas Cage’s character in the 90’s action schlockfest Con Air: CAMERON POE

Remontada next week boys!!

That was a disappointingly filler-y episode of The Last of Us.

UK among lowest-ranked countries for ‘human flourishing’ in wellbeing study

My theory that most people are simply not very smart continues to pan out daily

There are things Arsenal can learn for the second leg and it’s not over by any means but PSG the best team we’ve played this season by absolute miles.

Oh no, sir. That's an AWFUL call.

people who don't like that thing when Arsenal fans talk about referees after they lose/draw better hope for an Arsenal comeback here

Midfield disoranization cost us massively early-on. Understandable with midfield reshuffle. But we were lost. We are starting to use our physical advantage now. Going long, carrying the ball past their lightweight players. We were just way too scared of them for the first 20min

Saka would have been clear on the goal.... The Linesman robbed that chance and I'm still fuming... COYG 🤜🏻 #Arsenal 🔴⚪

Not a humiliation at least. Played really well at times. They had the X factor on the night. Fluffed the final pass one too many times. Some incredibly boring referee attention seeking. Don’t fancy Parc de Princes though.

Really will be so gutted if this all comes down to referee bullshit again. It’s so boring. It dominates the conversation. It ruins the mood. PSG are electrifying. We’re hanging in. I just want to watch football. Not referees.

This is the most excited and terrified I’ve been for a game since the women’s euros final. Somehow even the women’s UCL semi didn’t panic me like this.

Our social media has gone a bit ‘remontada’ and I’m terrified we’re going to get humiliated tonight

Goodness me. I’m really nervous. COYG!

That sinners rendition of rocky road to Dublin is…. Unreal
