    Embarrassing

    Seriously, fuck off with this racist shite. You've searched around for some anti-Muslim propaganda and grubbed up a paragraph on an Indian paper that has literally no context or evidence around it. If you repeat this bullshit you are a fucking racist. You should be ashamed of yourself.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    In the meantime, I'm awaiting the stern phone call from Vlad the Inhaler, at which point taco Don will reverse his position again on Ukraine. Hope I'm wrong, obviously.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Using my own research, I've found that 100% of women who went on to have children later diagnosed with autism, drank water or water based refreshments during pregnancy. Clearly then, water causes autism. Why is the President and big Pharma so reluctant to admit this. Drain the swamp!

    I can vouch for Otis having no fear of death - I've seen how he drives. 😁

    Work colleagues dying

    It's hard losing a friend, bitter and brutal, but don't lose hope. What you say, and what you do matters, Pete. To your friends here and to all those around you. As to whether there's a point to our existence, personally I don't trouble myself with that thought too much. If there is, my...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    You can't really put context around racist statements. Kirk was just using a rhetorical device. He'd make an overtly racist statement, and then try to dial it back by bringing in DEI or something similar. It's interesting that Kirk was clearly a racist first, and then, later, a "convenient"...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Jeez, what happened to Christ is King? I'll bet Tommy Two-names and his newly religious following are absolutely outraged by the general population's lack of interest in the CofE head honcho. Or could it be that their recent loud support of (presumably an Anglican) God and the Church is just...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Christ. You are obsessed with a fact that it's only in your head. I've literally linked to academic studies that suggest there is no evidence of a mass migration of the very wealthy because of an increase in tax. That's because, by and large they've chosen to live in this country because of the...

    Match Thread Leicester City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Sep

    I'm not unhappy with that, we played some decent stuff, kept at it, and managed the last fifteen pretty well without having to pull a Norwich to survive. Could've been better, but could also definitely have been worse. Well earned point, imho.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    There's an awful lot of assumptions and claims here and not a lot of evidence. Dumb policy? I could just as well say that what's dumb is persisting with this centrist/right wing bollocks of cut, cut , cut your way to growth (but don't hurt the rich). We've been trying that for a while now, and...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Turns out that "millionaires leaving" bit, is a bit of a myth. https://taxjustice.net/press/millionaire-exodus-did-not-occur-study-reveals/ Wealth inequality has been rising steadily since the 1970s, so it's not just QE that's caused it, it's an ongoing reluctance to even attempt to...

    Charlie Kirk Shot

    Sorry - I've bitten your head off unfairly. I sincerely apologise. I was going to delete my post, but it's probably fairer if I leave it there as a monument to my stupidity. It won't be the only one that's out there. I bow entirely to your opinion on Kimmel being unfunny and past it - I...

    Football Trivia

    Bugger me, these questions are hard. Can you ask me something easier. First scorer at the Ricoh? I know that one. I think. :D

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Indeed - and to talk about growth whilst ignoring inequality is, imho, ridiculous. This isn't a poor country but what wealth we have is increasingly being funneled towards a very small number of people. By 2023, the richest 50 families in the UK held more wealth than half of the UK population...

    Charlie Kirk Shot

    Isn't where you draw the line on free speech, at incitement to violence (or as Starmer pointed out today, on inciting others to self-harm/suicide)? That doesn't seem unreasonable to me. Where I'd concede it gets trickier is hate-speech, defined as "Expressions of hatred toward someone on...

    Charlie Kirk Shot

    Bullshit. Utter dumb bullshit. He was obviously dropped precisely and exactly because he criticised the weaponisation of Kirk's death by Trump and his acolytes. Look at the timing and tell us how many shows get cancelled with no notice because of falling ratings. You're taking absolute...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    If you think the Tories have a better record on diversity than Labour just because they've had two female leaders, then you don't really understand what diversity is. Don't, whatever you do, Google Islamaphobia and the Tory party, for a start.... You're standing up for a party that fucked the...

    What are you playing?

    Just on the latter, I was sternly warned that it would make me go blind. I asked if I could just do it until I needed glasses.

    What are you playing?

    Y'know, I'm not entirely sure these things are good for kids! Possibly not us either. :) In truth, I just turn off chat on all of these things, and usually spend no more than two minutes (or approximately eight to ten deaths) before sloping quietly back to single player mode.

    What are you playing?

    I do enjoy the odd game of Forza Horizons on the Xbox (mostly, I try to get all of the classic cars I'd have in real life if I had the money), and even a bit of COD, though I find first person shooter games tend to give me motion sickness after a while. I'm obviously far too old for this, but...
