Irish in Atlantic Canada, comedy, soccer, books,rugby, podcasts, theatre, running. (Not even remotely in that order)
This will be probably a lot of sport with some books that I've been reading thrown in.

He told us. He absolutely told us. He said he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and get away with it. He told us he had zero regard for human life and people still voted for him. I could just scream.
And when he *jokes* about Trump 2028 are people just going to wave that away too?

Trump: I don't think we're gonna necessarily ask for a declaration of war. I think we're just gonna kill people. Okay? We're gonna kill them. They're gonna be, like, dead.

This is a perfect summary of the transfer window on a broader level including what it could mean for finances in the game going forward, but also some transfers I genuinely missed, and what it's like to be in the mines on deadline day.
CHECK IT OUT!

Every day wasted in rebuttal of these obscene talking points, these stalling tactics, brings thousands of Palestinians closer to irreversible organ damage. Meanwhile many Western politicians continue to sleep soundly each night, possibly secure in the belief that this “problem” will soon be over.
YouTube currently offering up adverts to suggest that Palestinians are not actually being starved by Israel in Gaza, that this is all lies from the biased media. The dystopia is truly here already.
