@robbskidmore I see a lot more kids wearing nirvana t shirts today than smashing pumpkins ones, but I guess it’s a personal taste thing

Nirvana’s music does not stand the test of time. But the Smashing Pumpkins does. So ultimately Billy Corgan won out against Kurt Cobain. Nirvana was hugely popular but I never listen to it anymore. I find Smashing Pumpkins more musical and listenable. Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness is a truly great album. Nirvana’s best was probably Unplugged. What say you @batcountry1980 ?

@ScottSteiner Hollaaaaaa

Handing out Big Poppa Pump follows today.

@1ZachCity @HemmingsenAllan @FalkTG You didn’t ’arm the Brits’. You sold us weapons at such high credit we were bankrupted as a way of thanks for our role in liberating the free world (which the USA sat out for over 2 years)

@HemmingsenAllan @FalkTG So we armed the British, we armed the Soviets, we armed our European army and we armed our Pacific army. Your welcome.

I repeat: The U.S. sent thousands of its 19 years old soldiers to die in Normandy, to free Europe and to end the biggest crime against humanity ever commited - by Europeans. It was just 81 years ago. The whole reason, France, Benelux etc. 🇫🇷 exist today is because of this heroism. My grandparents could grow up in a liberal democracy. Without the U.S. they would be raised at the H*tler Youth. We Europeans would still be in wars again and again, like 1914, 1866, 1870, 1795 etc. They brought peace, democracy, liberty and human rights. They invested billions of U.S. Dollars into Europe with the Marshall Fund. They gave us more than we ever had in our history before. They protected us for 7 decades with hundreds of thousands of soldiers against the cruelties of the Soviet Union. The terror we can see nowadays in Donetsk, would have happened in Bavaria, Bourgogne or the Netherlands in 1950 if there wasn’t the U.S. 🇺🇸 Who do we Europeans think we are to let that nation down, act like bad allies, calling their President names every day on television - and have full confidence we stand better alone. All of instagram is just about, why we’re better than the U.S. We owe them so much. We Europeans are most arrogant species on earth. And to cure this we have to face the truth.

@OTD_in_WWE @TheCaZXL @bullyray5150 @real1 This commentary is so insipid

#OnThisDayInWWE 10 years (+2 days) ago on #WWERaw: Enzo and Cass make their Raw debuts, to fans' delight! This post-WrestleMania crowd already know their promo and catchphrases, word for word! Talk about being over! @TheCaZXL @bullyray5150 @real1

Primary school teacher here. I'm so over world fucking book day. Most kids barely own a book these days so why waste a day's learning to prance about in nasty, polyester princess or boy wizard costumes? Frozen is not a book and no 7 year old has read Harry Potter. Utter nonsense.

@Im_RobM Either way he has my full support

Kieran Trippier is one of the few footballers where I can honestly say I don't know if his next move will be to sign for a new club or appear on the next series of Ex on the Beach.

@rorysutherland If it’s a male batchelor, convince them they’re getting laid in half an hour

Top tip. Save money on domestic cleaners. Simply pretend to your wife or girlfriend that a female friend or relative of hers is coming round in 90 minutes.

@NicholasTyrone In fairness he caught the wind and ran a good campaign (turning up at the debate last minute for example) but in 2019 he showed he was a one trick pony

A huge reason why Labour did badly at the 2017 general election, as opposed to catastrophically abysmally, as predicted beforehand, was down to an anti-Brexit vote as opposed to a pro-Corbyn, pro-socialist one. The left have struggled with this ever since.

@0Calamity No we do the Christmas nativity but never seen this even in CofE/Catholic schools

I don't believe infant schools have EVER done this in the UK, not to my memory (and I am 64). Possibly because the England hasn't been a Catholic country since 1559. This is a clip from Spain.

@FernandJules86 @Gaullisme_Fr Sorry I just haven’t forgiven him for barring us from the EEC (despite not having been born for another 20+ years) 🤣🤣

@Glorifiedsit @Gaullisme_Fr ? 🤨

🇫🇷 🇬🇧 5 avril 1960, le Général de Gaulle débute une impressionnante visite d'État de 4 jours en Grande-Bretagne où il est superbement accueilli par Elisabeth II, il en fait le récit dans ses Mémoires d'Espoir : « Le 5 avril 1960, la Grande-Bretagne me reçoit. Elle le fait avec grandeur. Tout y a été préparé de telle façon que la visite du général de Gaulle sorte de l'ordinaire [...]. La Reine Elizabeth donne le ton. C'est ainsi, qu'à notre arrivée, où elle est venue avec le Prince Philip à la gare de Victoria me recevoir ainsi que ma femme et ceux qui nous accompagnent et où nous traversons Londres, elle et moi, dans son carrosse découvert, la souveraine ne cesse d'encourager de la manière la plus ostensible, par des signes et des sourires, l'enthousiasme de la foule massée le long du parcours. »

@passionnufc Stephen glass

Former Newcastle players from the Premier League era a fan under 25 would struggle to name #Nufc I’ll start with Steven Caldwell

@NUFC @ChrisDHWaugh 🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍

Thank you, Tripps 🖤🤍 After four and a half years of incredible service to Newcastle United, we can confirm that Kieran Trippier will leave the club this summer when his contract expires. Kieran arrived in January 2022 with the club in the relegation zone and played a crucial role as he went on to lift the club’s first domestic trophy in 70 years.

@fiago7 Scotland?

Probably the most beautiful country on earth

@hurasenberg Judging by that shirt you’ve already suffered enough

I’ll never understand the “you had 14 years” argument that people give me on the doorstep when I’m canvassing. 14 years ago, I looked like this… #voteconservative

@ukilaw Weren’t consulted, it’s been awfully thought out, set up to fail and violates international law (and probably leads to greater threats to the west in the region). It’s a shitshow, worse than Vietnam

The riddle I’ll never be able to solve: How did the UK, Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Canada and Australia collectively decide that confronting the world’s biggest state sponsor of terrorism, soon-to-be nuclear Ayatollah, sitting astride the global energy chokepoint, is simply “not their war”? How did the memory, experience, philosophy and logic of a millennium of Western civilisation simply vanish? Is TDS really that deadly a mental disease? Can anyone help decipher this puzzle?

@Ted246_ Butts legs were going but he still put in a shift. Was dreadful under Sounness but redeemed himself

Didn't mind Butt. Nowhere near the worst and seemed to always put a shift in. Villarreal friendly was his redemption game. Left on the right side of NUFC history for me.

@SergiAupaPucela @DjokovicFan_

@Glorifiedsit @DjokovicFan_ Albanians committed too a lot of killings of Serbs. They did the same then in Macedonia. They were guilty too.

Novak Djokovic on the Balkans: “What’s negative is how divided we are. We’re all neighbors. We shouldn’t be fighting. We should be helping each other so we all live better lives.”

@toonarmy_com YES

YES or NO: Eddie at the helm next season? #NUFC
