This is absolutely diabolical and disgusting a @cineworld allowed this to happen. That poor child behind him in the queue looks devastated. How was there not a limit on these buckets? I Hope whoever this is gets stuck with every last one of them buckets now.

@TinyWriterLaura It's irrelevant. It's one seat, unless she's paid for two seats of course for her bags. And, she's stopping other women from sitting down not just men. But you knew that.
English
i think it’s weird that as a man you didn’t want to sit on the empty seat at the table full of men, but for some reason really wanted to sit next to the lone woman who probably has her luggage there to dissuade men from blocking her in unless there are no other seats left

Another day, another heartbreaking road fatality.
@leedslivenews you have some explaining to do.
First and foremost, my thoughts are with the family and friends of the 22-year-old who has tragically lost his life.
No family should have to endure this.
But I have to ask…
Why was it necessary for the headline to lead with “electric car”?
If this had involved a petrol or diesel car, would the headline have said “petrol car” or “diesel car”?
Of course it wouldn’t. It never has.
So why are we now seeing this?
The powertrain is irrelevant to the tragedy.
The story is about a young man who has lost his life and a police investigation into what happened.
Whether the car was powered by electricity, petrol or diesel doesn’t change that.
It feels like the words “electric car” are being used simply because they attract clicks and fuel online arguments.
Imagine being the victim’s family and seeing your loved one’s death become part of another debate about EVs, because someone decided the type of powertrain belonged in the headline.
Road fatalities deserve better than clickbait.
If the vehicle type is genuinely relevant to the cause of a collision, then by all means report it.
But if it isn’t, it shouldn’t be singled out simply because it’s electric.
The focus should be on the people whose lives have been devastated, not on the badge or the battery.

On the topic of 2008, Lewis Hamilton received an outrageous 25 (TWENTY FIVE!!!!) second penalty post-race for not correctly handing back the position to Raikkonen in Belgium here and therefore supposedly gaining an unjust advantage. Purposefully crashing into opposition gets you less btw.
It dropped him two places and handed the win directly to Felipe Massa, which was a greater points swing than the infamous Singapore Grand Prix where Ferrari, not Renault, was really solely to blame for Massa's misfortunes.
So don't ever use 2008 as a pathetic attempt at making 2021 look just. They are not comparable in the slightest.

People over on Instagram and Tiktok are mixing Lewis' 2021 'loss' together with Massa 2008, Alonso 2012 and Verstappen 2025 omfggg

@alexberesfordTV Supposed to be 34 on Thursday but then down to 17 the week after. If you point out the highs you have to point out the lows as well, otherwise it's confirmation bias of a predetermined belief.
English
50 years on from the Summer of 1976, this is very likely to be a significant weather event. Some data models are predicting high’s of 38C midweek. June day and nighttime records are likely to be broken.

🚨🇺🇸 One of the strangest stories from this World Cup. 😳
Restaurants and bars across New York have started complaining about visiting fans, not because of bad behavior, but because many aren't leaving tips after eating or drinking. ✍🏻
In much of the world, tipping is optional or uncommon. But in the United States, tips are a major part of restaurant and bar workers' income, with 20% becoming the standard expectation. 💵🇺🇸
⚠️ A mandatory 20% gratuity is now being added in some restaurants to bills during the World Cup.

The host country for the 2038 FIFA World Cup has not yet been determined or officially announced by FIFA. Hard to imagine it being anywhere else but USA.
The official selection follows a formal bid evaluation and voting process that typically takes place years in advance. However, the bidding eligibility is largely shaped by FIFA's continental rotation rules, which state that a confederation cannot host two tournaments in a row.
Because of the locations of prior and upcoming tournaments, the field of potential hosts for 2038 is narrowed down:The Constraints: Since the 2030 tournament will span Europe, Africa, and South America, and the 2034 tournament will be held in Asia (Saudi Arabia), these confederations are generally ruled out from hosting in 2038.
Eligible Confederations: This leaves the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC) and CONCACAF (North America, Central America, and the Caribbean) as the primary eligible regions.
Judging by attendance and ticket sales, becomes a no-brainer.
John LeFevre@JohnLeFevre
America should host the World Cup every single time. We've got 40+ stadiums that hold 65,000+ spectators. The rest of the world combined can barely match that. FIFA ticket sales? 2010 (South Africa): $300 million 2014 (Brazil): $527 million 2018 (Russia): $541 million 2022 (Qatar): $686 million 2026 (Mostly USA): >$3 billion projected Even adjusted for more teams (48 vs 32) and more group stage matches, these numbers are off the charts, and exclude hospitality, F&B, travel, hotels, etc. Just ask Freddy.

What I don’t understand about the (albeit sparse few) who are coming out in defence of these “Hydration Breaks” being used in every game regardless of the heat is why they are defending them at all?
Are you that much of a fan of advertising and commercialism? What’s to like?
English
The BBC opted for no studio prescence in covering the Ecuador/Curaceao game.
Probably because their studio is in Salford.
It reminds me of Italia '90 where ITV slaughtered them.
It's the same again.
English
@StuBennett Yeah and no adverts allowed throughout and no tips required

I propose that in retaliation, all NFL games hosted in UK get split into two halves, rather than four quarters.
When Football Was Better@FootballInT80s
Fair play to FIFA; they don’t get much right, but these initiatives are a breath of fresh air. Players roll around for a few seconds and then realise the game is carrying on, so they miraculously rise like Lazarus. No time-wasting at corners or throw-ins, and the sending-off of Almorin should discourage any talking behind hands. Even corners are being checked correctly — all good stuff. The one idea I could do without, though, is splitting the game into four quarters.
English
@CDS_1980_ @noobbricks Just watch the video. He gained the opportunity of a pass into turn 1 from the advantage he gained from cutting the final corner. It's not rocket science.
English
@OsirisRage @noobbricks Care to explain exactly how he didn’t give the place back properly
English
A heated dispute at Peppa Pig World shows a family with a disabled child arguing with staff over a height check. The parents felt a request to check their daughter's legs was deeply inappropriate, while the worker was trying to verify ticket compliance.
Who do you think is in the wrong? Both sides have valid points regarding safety policies and disability dignity, but a severe breakdown in communication and a highly defensive escalation turned a routine ticket check into an absolute mess.
English
@acier_jean @noobbricks Gained a lasting advantage. We all knew it at the time. Ive seen it a hundred times.
English
@OsirisRage @noobbricks You should actually watch it again - he ended up in front of the Ferrari and gave the place back.
And the rules clearly stated rhatba driver can drive off track with good reason as long as there’s no advantage, which there wasn’t as soon as the place was handed back.
English
@acier_jean @noobbricks It's common sense. He cut the corner, gained an advantage whilst enabled him to overtake into turn 1. It was obvious at the time, it's obvious now
English
@OsirisRage @noobbricks The problem there is that it was never what giving the "place back properly" actually meant.
It wasn't until the appeal that the panel clarified what Lewis should have done and applied that rule retroactively.
English
@TelegraphSport I disagree with this as I only care about the 90 minutes of football not the studio crap. BBC winning comfortably, as usual, in that race.
English
It has become abundantly clear that ITV has won the battle with the BBC, as far as its home for this World Cup is concerned.

@Seb5meister Do explain that logic.
Better than Bahrain? Monaco? Netherlands? Brazil?

Vettel’s 1 car more impressive than any of Fernando’s 8
Holiness@F1BigData
Only 2 drivers have ever reached the podium with Aston Martin: Fernando Alonso - 8 Sebastian Vettel - 1
English
@WallStreetMav You've beaten Paraguay and Australia, on home turf, both games you should be winning anyway. Let's see if you make the last 8...
English
@noobbricks Not how it worked. And I do agree the penalty was harsh made worse by the fact Raikkonen crashed just afterwards.
English
@OsirisRage its much much closer to no penalty than 25 seconds, especially since they swapped positions multiple times afterwards before Kimi crashed anyways.
