What a fantastic start to the week with an #Arsenal #ChampionsLeague win against #AthleticBilbao #COYG

The Athletic | Football @theathleticfc.bsky.social · 22d

An instant impact from Gabriel Martinelli and fellow substitute Leandro Trossard's strike means Arsenal become the first side in European Cup/Champions League history to win six consecutive matches against Spanish sides after a 2-0 victory against Athletic Club in Bilbao.

Nice stat, thank you!

Scott Willis @scott.cannonstats.com · 26d

This is Arsenal's 26th win by 3 or more goals in all competitions since the start of the 2023/24 season. No English team has more in that span.

Gale Anne Hurd @galeannehurd.bsky.social · 25d

Nice way to kick off the weekend, with an #Arsenal win! #ARS 3 - 0 #NFO

Charles Watts @charleswatts.bsky.social · 26d

Well, that was fun.

And that was without Saka, Saliba, Havertz, Jesus, Norgaard and Odegaard (pretty much).

Hugely encouraging afternoon for Arsenal, Mikel Arteta and his summer signings.

On a sad note, Amy was one of the most memorable people I’ve ever known. Our friendship meant so very much to me and to the entire cast and crew of #TheWalkingDead. A tragic loss for her family and the thousands of friends and colleagues around the world who had the privilege of knowing her. #RIP

Valhalla Entertainment @valhallaent.bsky.social · 29d

We are absolutely devastated to hear about the passing of Amy Blanc Lacy, our incredibly talented script supervisor on #TWD for over a decade. Amy was one of the kindest and most thoughtful people imaginable, and this is a tremendous loss.

Terence Stamp was a brilliant actor. I think he and Peter O'Toole not onlv had the most mesmerizing eyes...but delivered equally indelible performances. #RIP #TerenceStamp

Valhalla Entertainment @valhallaent.bsky.social · Aug 17

We are devastated to hear about the passing of #TerenceStamp. He was a brilliant actor who played William Harcourt, the villain in our 1988 film #AlienNation. Our thoughts are with his friends and family at this time.

What a tragic loss. James Horner was a genius composer and an absolutely lovely man.

No surprise here…Jim Cameron and I envisioned the future of warfare in the early 1980’s, which is why this very scenario is at the heart of THE TERMINATOR…Skynet. www.wired.com/story/nuclea...

Nuclear Experts Say Mixing AI and Nuclear Weapons Is Inevitable

Human judgement remains central to the launch of nuclear weapons. But experts say it’s a matter of when, not if, artificial intelligence will get baked into the world’s most dangerous systems.
