Pushback works, part gazillion:

"Here are the facts: DOGE moved forward with plans to close multiple field offices. Then, without public notice or explanation, they reversed their plans. Now they are trying to pretend like they were never planning to close the offices."

How the Social Security Administration and DOGE are gaslighting Americans
The Social Security Administration (SSA) sent an email on March 27 to beneficiaries saying that reports that field offices were closing was an invention of fake news media.

Context: years of under-investment and mis-management by the board puts spurs in perilous position. new manager is popular with the players but can’t stop relegation. Despite pressure board don’t sack the manager. Spurs win promotion, then 2 FA cups UEFA cup, challenge for title in next 6 years

If it comes to it Chris Davies is doing a good job at Birmingham and made a big impression when he was assistant at spurs

Tamworth was all right! Spurs survived, Archie showed he’s got a tough edge worthy of a player twice his age, Kinsky had a taste of football the ‘English way’ and we found out that Timo can’t play as a 9 (who would have guessed?)

So often books that aren’t ‘great fiction’ actually make really good screenplays e.g. Slow Horses and so many ‘truly great’ books are turned into terrible screenplays e.g. so many Dickens, Austen’s etc

Can’t help feeling sorry for Austin. He waits years for a first team league debut, does pretty well, only to find he’s dropped another rung in the goalie pecking order.

Following through from series one is good fun. It’s a good series.

@flavbateman.bsky.social was calling the rangers performance ‘pathetic’ a bit of an over-reaction? There were a lot of good things in it.

“Spend more money Levy” would be a better campaign. We need to pressure him into properly backing the manager not selling up to a dodgy sovereign wealth fund.

Was I the only one who could see a lot of spurs positives in the rangers game. Didn’t want to post in case it jinxed the saints game. Couldn’t disagree more having it described as ‘pathetic’ (quote fighting cock)

Spurs fans if you have a spare 45 mins, @robtdaly.bsky.social and I did a pod recently with Matty Wells, Spurs first team assistant coach. There’s so much gold in there about what the team are working toward and how they want to play. Available on YT and all your pod platforms 🤍

The reality is representations urging Israel to stop the killing are ignored by Netanyahu & the Trump election gives signal to the IDF it can continue to act with impunity. Only a new boycott, disinvestment & sanctions strategy could have any effect. It should be a core demand on UK.

This is why I roll my eyes at people who think they can "stay and fight" on Twitter.
It's like aggressively trying to win a rigged carnival game. All you're doing is giving money to the company that rigged it. You're not "showing them." You're supporting them.

I’m going to have to take some time off from the inch now too, I’m afraid - can’t take the doomer swings every time we lose (vftl is an immediate delete after a defeat). Glory is much more balanced this time, much more probing.
