All of you punching down on Thome York need to give him a break. He can't help it - he's a lead singer after all.

Desde la ciudad de Nueva York, compartimos nuestro profundo dolor por las más de 200 personas fallecidas en las inundaciones en España. Nuestro más sentido pésame a los que han perdido a seres queridos, y rezamos para que los desaparecidos puedan reunirse con sus familias. Este es un trágico recordatorio: el cambio climático ya está aquí y sus consecuencias son mortales. Continuaremos identificando soluciones climáticas para proteger nuestras ciudades.

Last night, we sent our second team of first responders down to North Carolina to help protect and assist our fellow Americans impacted by the devastation brought by #HurricaneHelene — because that is what we do as New Yorkers.

Throughout its history, @allencathedral has served as a cornerstone of faith and support for the community of Jamaica, Queens. Honored to attend the celebration of Pastor Green’s installation this morning and feel invigorated by the faith that radiates from this congregation.

@TexanPatriot55 @CollinRugg Um I'm going to hazard a guess it's because transitioning doesn't indirectly cause the murder of other people?

NEW: Colin Gray rocks back and forth at his first hearing after his son k*lled four innocent people at the Apalachee High School sh**ting in Georgia. Gray was charged with involuntary mansl*ughter, second degree murder and cruelty to children. The father faces up to a whopping 180 years in prison. His next hearing will be on December 4. Gray is accused of purchasing his 14 year old son a rifle for Christmas.

@thehpweaver Aw thanks man! This is nice to hear, especially as I made the crucial error of reading some of the comments and got a bit sad for a minute. Opinions are, of course, like arseholes and some of the arseholes erm are arseholes. I should have known better!

@MCH_Tong Just listened to it Matt. You came across great and very fair and honest. I was a BP obsessive back in the day and was always sad when you left, but I completely get it now. Long may your drumming brilliance and all round top blokeness reign!

A very nice chat with Harry of 22 Grand Pod! I get a bit more into the weeds with what went on behind the scenes in BP. Hopefully it comes across gracefully and not mean spirited but if you have any fucking problems with it, take it up with my publicist, which is me.

Matt Tong is on the podcast as we delve into how he went from Bournemouth to Bloc Party, why he was reluctant to join the band and why he eventually chose to leave. @MCH_Tong patreon.com/22grandpod?utm…

You are factual twats.
Premier League Match Centre@PLMatchCentre

#BOUNEW – 90+3’ VAR OVERTURN Ouattara’s goal is awarded on-field. The VAR overturned the decision as they deemed it to be a factual handball by Ouattara, therefore an on-field review was not required and the goal was disallowed.

Me too and it really wasn't much to report home about. Now I know how my mum felt whenever I rattled on about how cool the 70s must have been and she'd grumble about the power cutting out, weak beer and strangers looking at her and my dad funny.

Nigel Farage is a cunt. In addition I am also extremely irritated by the distance between the bottom of his nose and his upper lip.

@buffetfiend Did they get fired or did they leave? Hell of a rhythm section anyway, Tong was doing just astonishing stuff all the way through that first album

There’re artists like Sufjan Stevens and The National who can just keep bringing out good work decade after decade. And then there is Weezer and Bloc Party, whose careers passed through a practically terror-inducing, vertiginous, haunting and unrecoverable drop in quality

Fuck off you snivelling cunt.
Daniel Ek@eldsjal

Today, with the cost of creating content being close to zero, people can share an incredible amount of content. This has sparked my curiosity about the concept of long shelf life versus short shelf life. While much of what we see and hear quickly becomes obsolete, there are timeless ideas or even pieces of music that can remain relevant for decades or even centuries. For example, we’re witnessing a resurgence of Stoicism, with many of Marcus Aurelius’s insights still resonating thousands of years later. This makes me wonder: what are the most unintuitive, yet enduring ideas that aren’t frequently discussed today but might have a long shelf life? Also, what are we creating now that will still be valued and discussed hundreds or thousands of years from today?
