Pretty remarkable statement from Slavia Prague, who say this is "a logical step based on respect for the space reserved for visiting fans, just as Slavia fans outside the visiting section respect the rules of not wearing our club colours or symbols.”

I think my all time favourite christmas movie trope is behind the santa magic - how he got his reindeer, how he does his thing on christmas eve etc. Klaus is probably my favourite version of it but Christmas Chronicles is fun too.

Utter coward.
Asked repeatedly about Donald Trump calling Sadiq Khan "disgusting" and suggesting that he was only elected because of immigrants, Keir Starmer's spokesman says only that the PM has a "strong relationship" with the President which has "yielded positive results for this country"
December 9, 2025 at 12:42 PM
I fucking hate him and his government at this point. Fuck Labour.
Keir Starmer’s spokesman refuses to criticise Trump for calling Europe a group of “decaying” nations led by “weak” leaders

Asked about Trump saying European countries will no longer be “viable" thanks to migration, Keir Starmer’s spokesman says the UK is “returning control to our asylum system”

My friend S: Are you a registered charity?
Him: We’re raising money for a charity.

Just had the most beige dinner I've ever created and it was food that I ate. That's as good as it gets.

*sings* 'I'd Do Anything For Growth (But I Won't Do *That*)'
(Personal comment) This discussion is getting surreal.

The Starmer gov has identified growth as its main priority.

The data suggest that joining the EU customs union would boost growth.

67% of 2024 Labour voters want the UK to rejoin the EU customers union.

But Starmer says no.

Me: hey, here's the word doc with the table of already written information. If you can just update it and add the new bits that would be great.

Them: sure thing, here's a 23 page powerpoint that I created instead that you now have to copy and paste completely unformatted back into word.

Just had some ice cream and sprinkles whilst listening to an audiobook about the nuremberg trial if you're wondering what a Sunday evening for a 41 year old woman is like.

If ever there was a brilliant time to be isolated from the EU because of a vote that should never have taken place its now.
A few thoughts on the new US national security strategy that was released today.

Really can’t get over this new political mentality every party has adopted which seems to be “let’s make our country so shit and hostile no one wants to come here”
this is really grim

I've said this before, but there are two kinds of people in the world.

- People who have suffered or been traumatized by something, and think it's unfair unless everyone else also suffers
- People who have suffered or been traumatized by something and don't want anyone else to experience that.
