@_jamesw @colombianps6 No WC final is a gimme game. You should know your only win has a huge asterisk all over it.

@Xyz1rx @colombianps6 And okay? I don’t disagree. You lost a gimme game at HOME.

Amazingly when people are stuck in the same house they live in all year surrounded by the same people and places they've seen thousands of times they have less motivation to do things in extreme weather. No different to the rain or cold. x.com/TezzaBelle88/s…

30° abroad: “let’s explore this town.” 30° in the UK: “I may not survive this Sainsbury’s trip.”

@Paul_Heron_ Katowice seems far more liberal than Poznan and even Wroclaw, just to note down.

Was talking with a Polish friend in his 40s yesterday. He used to work in the NGO sector, says he couldn’t possibly go back there because of the extreme left-wing dogmatism of virtually everyone (mostly female) working there.
We were discussing the advance of woke in Poland. The most obvious evidence of this is the rise of the LGBTQ movement. Suddenly there are gays everywhere, as he put it. Used to be much more of a low-key thing in Poland. There’s this idea that during the PRL times, gay men used to signal to each other by carrying little man bags. Such an item, a ”pedałówka”, still carries a slight stigma.
A less obvious sign of woke advance, at least to outsiders, is the rise of Ukrainian rights advocacy. There are estimated to be upwards of 1.55 million Ukrainians with valid residency status living in Poland. Around 1 million of these are under war-related temporary protection. This is in a country of under 38 million people.
The Ukrainian issue is very controversial in Poland. It’s an example of an immigration controversy that is not primarily about race. There’s a push, from the left of course, to give these people citizenship and/or voting rights. My friend is adamantly against this. He believes it would be a repeat of the same mistake the Western nations made.

Go for a walk in the rain, it’s good for you! ⚡️ 🎾
As well as offering fresh air and sunlight (even if it’s cloudy), being in the rain brings an electric charge to your body via the droplets.
This is a powerful grounding effect and is as simple as walking or playing sports in the rain.
Metaphysically also it can offer a freeing feeling by simply doing something we’re “not meant” to do, something that breaks the patterns we exist in day to day.

This man doesn’t get the credit he deserves. Masterminded Tyson’s win over Klitschko, pretty much cracked the Usyk code all by himself, one of the greatest minds and people in boxing. Cannot say a bad word about the man

Morrissey in rare interview: “Diversity means conformity.”
He says the word has become toxic - it doesn’t create variety, it boxes everyone in and erases real cultural differences.
Music industry now bloodless: drop artists instantly if they don’t go platinum immediately. No time to develop.
“Diversity… is a dreadful word. Pin it to anything and that situation is finished.”
He speaks about homogeneity and how it’s important.

I’ve just had to thank Murillo for signing a new contract.

People who get extremely bad hangovers after alcohol. You ask them about their life. They say they are stressed out. In a bad place. Things aren't going well.
Don't drink if that's the case.
Hangovers are for ppl who hate their lives
Happy people don't get hangovers.

Steven Bartlett says a few glasses of wine ruined the next 3 days of his life “It's one of those areas where you don't understand the hidden cost until you really give it up for a while. I stopped drinking at 30 years old. I'm now 33. When I was 31, I thought, I'll have a drink again because now I could really A/B test it. I had a year of not drinking, decided to have a drink again” “It ruined three days of my life. I had a couple of glasses of wine, didn't get drunk. It ruined three days of my life because of the domino effect it caused” “I got worse sleep that night, and then because I got worse sleep that night, I ate more poorly the next day because my dopamine system or whatever, the cortisol system was all messed up. I podcasted worse. I didn't go to the gym that day or the day after because I felt really bad. I then slept worse, and I could track all of this on my Whoop”

@_jamesw @lancscricket Difficult to win finals day when in recent years we have lost 4/5 of our best players though
English
@_jamesw @lancscricket Also Lancashire have won more Blast games than any other county and almost always make the knock out stages so they’re doing something right in this format.

@_jamesw @lancscricket When the kids come in they do shit though, do you not follow the club?
