Is this as universally relatable as I feel like it is?

What do we think Kane has to do to be in this conversation? Mbappe couldn’t lace his boots on current form

@JChimirie66677 @BBC @grok fact check the viewing figures claim

Another British tradition quietly taken off air. Another shrug from the @BBC. This time it's the Boat Race - first broadcast on radio in 1927, on television since 1938 - dropped after nearly a century. Why? Not low viewing figures: last year's men's and women's races pulled in more people than the Masters and Formula One. Not cost: it's cheap by sports standards and pumps millions into the London economy. The truth is uglier. Inside the BBC the word that killed the Boat Race was "elitist." The new head of sport was said to be "lukewarm." That single term - "elitist" - is now a licence to scrap anything rooted in Britain's past. It's the same quiet vandalism we've seen around the Proms, Remembrance coverage, and the monarchy. The BBC no longer sees its job as showing Britain to itself. It sees its job as remaking Britain. The Boat Race isn't a cocktail party for gilded Oxbridge types. It's free to watch, pulls two hundred thousand ordinary spectators to the Thames every year, and has always been a working-class London day out. Rowing may have its posh stereotype, but the event is about rivalry, endurance and spectacle - things any nation should be proud to show the world. Yet the BBC's cultural gatekeepers have a deeper allergy: tradition that isn't re-branded, rewritten, or apologised for. They can throw millions at "inclusive" events nobody asked for and wall-to-wall virtue TV. But a British crowd on the riverbank waving flags? That's suspect. That's "exclusive." This is what happens when institutions stop believing in the country that built them. They measure value not by what the public loves but by what fits the new ideological checklist. The numbers didn't matter; the narrative did. And we pay for it. Every household is forced to hand over a licence fee to a broadcaster embarrassed by its own culture, one that keeps hacking away at the few things still able to unite a fragmented nation. The Boat Race will survive. Channel 4 has taken it on, proof there's nothing obsolete about it. But the BBC's retreat matters. It's a signal: if something feels too British, too rooted, too recognisable, it's up for cancellation. A broadcaster that can't celebrate its country is no longer serving it. It's time to ask why we're still paying for our own cultural erasure.

@terryhearnshaw File under ‘tweets I could not have predicted in 2024 haha

So grateful for Big John bringing balance to the force.

@twothickscoops I think you mean WOOKIE mistake. Amaright guys? Guys?

Finger in the shot on the third one. Classic rookie mistake, been there myself

All-time XIs should be 442 and I will not hear anything further on the matter

@armillspaugh @NTFabiano ChatGPT’d it

@NTFabiano interesting study but holy chart crime.

ChatGPT needs a 'fork chat' feature. I want to be able to branch a conversation from any point like git branch -> explore alternate timelines without ruining the main thread. or copy pasting like a freak

@south_railway total and persistent lack of air conditioning in your trains is an absolute joke.

@terryhearnshaw Mad thing really is it's little things like this that people will rise up over isn't it.

At this point it's quite conceivable that this Labour government won't win a single seat at the next election.

@hannah_ahn My two pennies: the before gets you noticed by early adopters and makes growth possible, the after gets you sustainable conversion. One leads to the other. It’s not a signal the before is ‘wrong’ or ‘a waste of time’.
