When you see the tail racking up runs, you think "well if tailenders can do that, we should do OK" and then we bat and............ #Ashes

On the bright side this might get into day 4, no guarantee mind.

Entirely down to Pope's disaster. Bruno and Sandrovway off it too. Bright spots, Willock and Ramsey when he came on, Thiaw class again, Gordon up front needs to be binned as an option. We might just have found emergency RB cover in Miley, did well. Created more than enough to get a result IMO #NUFC.

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

Here's a thought, if the ball is whizzing by outside off stump, you are not obliged to waft your bat at it, you are perfectly within your rights to just let it fly harmlessly past. #Ashes

Great thread, america slanted but holds true for elsewhere!!
Shittification and shareholder return

A rehash of an old thread

Why is everything crap. Well, here we learn why Adam Smith was an early Marxist, in that though he had great faith in markets

He had zero faith in merchants

And the reason why, is why no one answers your helpline

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Shoppers at the Branson Walmart were stunned after a black bear wandered inside, picked up a can of bear spray, and accidentally sprayed it down an aisle before walking back out through the front doors. Several people were treated for coughing and irritation, and the bear was safely guided away.

So at the far-right thugathon the other week, there were 12 arrests and 25 Police Officers injured. I think we should all spare a thought for the 1000 officers who must have been hurt yesterday at the Palestine rally that warranted 400+ arrests. Get well soon.
