It's crazy to think he'd win 5 on the bounce from 00 to 04, finish 05 and 06 3rd and 2nd, then get sacked for 07.
I'm sure the astronomical salary was a factor, but I'll never get over that moment of Ferrari arrogance.

There's an irony to the idea that despite all his bolstering and denial around the Celtic Tiger, the greed and arrogance of a Fianna Fáil candidate in the late 2000s will still potentially lead to the end of Micheál Martin's career #aras25

Top 3 Greatest Unforced Errors in F1 History:

Alex Dunne leaving McLaren makes total sense for Alex. There's no room at the Inn.
Only time will tell if McLaren will regret it though. A lot of people assume Oscar and Lando will be a rocksteady lineup, but there are already cracks in the relationship between them and the team.

Local elections? They got a half dozen nutjobs who barely show up for work and a few FFFG offcuts.
General Elections? They've gotten, what, 2 or 3 seats that weren't already established years ago?
And now the presidential election is a bust.
Yet we keep taking them at their word?

It would be great if during the inevitable press tour Peadar and David will do claiming that "hundreds of thousands" of people's voices are being "silenced", that someone would bother to actually challenge them on where, other than anonymous platforms, these numbers have ever manifested? #spéirgorm

As much as it pains me to compliment anything or anyone involved in Cork GAA, 18 seasons in senior hurling is insanely impressive. Lads push themselves so hard physically nowadays, I doubt we'll see this kind of longevity again.

Almost as impressive as that 2nd half performance 😘

On the topic of Japanese food. Tonkatsu curry udon? 😙👌
Idgaf if some people think udon noodles are too thick. That shit is perfection with Tonkatsu.
It's kind of a shame I have a violent hatred of eating fish, otherwise I'd probably try sushi

Honestly, I could spend hours writing out all my thoughts on this, but the summary is that I fucking hate the German police, I hate that our government will do nothing to get justice for Kitty, and that in all these spineless fucks enabling genocide will be protected by the facade of polite society

Stone Toad Steve Austin @missyabigman.bsky.social · Aug 29

Oh but don't worry, they've referred the matter to their own watchdog to see if they were justified in, once again, assaulting peaceful civilians protesting genocide.

(Spoiler alert: If these fascist cunts thought there was a chance they'd face repercussions for this, they'd have never done it)

Police already trying to justify this by saying Kitty compared them to Nazis and asked them if their grandparents would be proud of them.

If your reaction as an officer to that is to break their nose, continue assaulting them and attempt to arrest them, it sounds like they've got you bang to rights
