I'm not saying it wasn't a red, I just think when the player is that little and cute and sad about it, maybe you should let him off just this once.

Ironically, I would have been happy with a draw at the start, but it feels like a loss now haha.

Okay I blame all the people switching from Spurs men to Spurs women on the tv and bringing bad energy with them. You all need to turn your TVs off and take that negativity away from the girls please.

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

‘Cruel’ amendments are being used to thwart assisted dying bill, says lead MP
Lords’ demand for 1,150 changes include many that are ‘unnecessary’ and likely to run down clock, says Kim Leadbeater

UK politics live – latest updates
Members of the House of Lords have proposed “totally unnecessary” and “very cruel” amendments to the assisted dying bill in a bid to scupper it, the MP leading the campaign has said.
Kim Leadbeater said on Friday she believed that peers opposed to the bill were trying to block it by putting forward hundreds of changes, including one to film terminally ill people as they undergo an assisted death. Continue reading...

Some vital context on the Slavia Prague/Pride flag situation: The flag is not being removed, it is being relocated from the Away section. This is still not an ideal solution, the club should’ve told Slavia to forfeit the match, but better a flag moved than torn apart or set fire to.

Okay I was originally really angry about this, but it looks like Spurs are moving the flag to the opposite corner and frankly I'm glad that means it won't be at risk of destruction by traveling homophobes.
The progress pride flag, the symbol of the LGBTQ+ community, on display at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has been relocated for Tuesday’s Champions League tie against Slavia Prague following a request from the visiting club.

The large flag is usually situated in the North-East corner of the Spurs ground and will instead be displayed in the South-West corner.

This is antithesis to the whole point of Pride in football and what it means for the fans. If you are the host, you should be able to stand your ground and say 'respect everyone or don't come'.

i think if you want to have those disgusting LED headlights on your car, you should have to do a test where they blast you point blank with your own headlights and then you have 15 seconds to successfully complete some sort of vision-based task, and if you can't do it they push your car off a cliff

⚠️ Trump, Farage and their allies are coming for the BBC – and its future’s on the line.
The Government’s about to rewrite the rules on who controls the BBC.
If we don’t act now, we risk losing one of the last trusted, independent news sources we have and ending up with our own version of Fox News.
