Bruno Fernandes is probably the most overrated player in the premier league right now.

They’re not on Bluesky so they won’t hear this. But the Discovery + App has to be the worst piece of tech for quite a long time. Slow, laggy, AWFUL UI. Totally ruins the viewer experience.

Rapidly losing interest in the @bsky.app app. Really needs to be far far far more engaging. No trends, hashtags don’t seem to do anything to connect communities and it’s just far far too dull and vanilla. Come on guys, up your game quickly!

What a scintillating qualifying session for the Las Vegas Grand Prix! Must be the most bling track on the circuit! Love it!

A beautifully written piece on a harrowing topic by @jonathanliew.bsky.social

The chasm between the masses and the system that allegedly represents them is more stark than ever.
Sport may be a blunt tool of social change, but it’s time to take a stand against Israel | Jonathan Liew
As the bombardment continues in Gaza, bodies such as Fifa and the IOC have evaded taking a stand. But fans’ solidarity with Palestinians is growing and should not be ignored

Hi Commuters with dogs during rush hour… what’s the deal? Take dog to work day? Or tricking the mutt into thinking that the journey counts as a long walk? Or taking it along for a social meet with mates?

Nothing quite like playing football on a cold clear night - the ball skids nicely off the surface so can play some lovely 1-2 touch games. Great test of concentration and technique - love it.

My thoughts exactly. Expecting people to behave respectfully towards one other is one thing. Limiting acceptable topics of discussion to only those everyone finds comfortable is something else entirely.

(Also, Bluesky is in danger of reactive policing. I've been here for over a year & it's a problem.)

My concern for Bluesky is that it's very quickly sliding from "no MAGA" to "no argument," with people talking about how even disagreement is "bad for mental health."

Can we solve problems under that regime? Or will it sap those energies?

If Bluesky is policed as "nice" & as therapy, it'll fail.

One of the best features, however, is not having to see that Birbalsingh ad

It would be really great for this to really take off and eclipse X… but @bsky.app really need to capitalise on this momentum and add engaging features.. it’s been a weekend now and… it’s bit flavourless. Risk of being a “side interest” which eventually becomes a “no interest”
