#StrangerThings5 Disappointed in this last series how Winona Ryder's used less than her role deserves and Millie Bobbie Brown seems to have been given a really firm stare and a very purposeful stride...

@celticfc.bsky.social You do know we're going to get thumped on Saturday by a team skybet has at 4/1?

I can take losing. Anybody in sport can.

But losing like headless chickens?

Taxi for Wilfried...and Kasper too I think.

So I'm watching the extras on the Blu-Ray and Wes sez "...and we got Brian Cox, this English actor"...

Watching #DaveChapelle on his latest "special" trying to justify his cheap Saudi Comedy Festival cash-in appearance is the desperate clawback by that smug-ass chump way over and above what I'd hoped for. Thank you @netflix.com, you've just about made Christmas. 🎄👍🎁

#NickFerrari Alice Denby from @cityam.bsky.social talking nonsense about remote working. Thinks we're on better form if we're all in the office. After all, who can forget how productive we are with two or three hour round trip commutes, etc, etc.

100% remote IT contractor here.

He's not up to the job.

I've supported the club for years, decades, but this isn't working for Wilfried Nancy and I don't see where a win is coming from.

Biggest crisis since the 1990s.

Sorry, but time to get Martin O'Neill back. Wilfried Nancy's done.

On Wednesday, the Israelis shot to death a child named Zahir Nasser Shamiya (photo at the top of this article), then blocked efforts to rescue him—a long-held Israeli practice—& later ran over his body, cutting him in half

The incident took place within the “yellow line” in the Jabalia refugee camp
Israeli tank runs over child, cutting him in half as Gaza counts 738 ceasefire violations
While the authorities in Gaza make appeals to international institutions and leaders to intervene, the Israelis appear in no mood to curb their criminality.

The BBC routinely has sections on newsnight , Laura K and other shows which feature “ what the papers say/ what’s on the front pages” without ever explaining that 90% of print media is owned by non dom right wing owners, so allowing stories and news items to be skewed in one direction. #gibb bias
