@Tim_Denning No, that's just maturity? Maybe you need to do one to really value the other? Or you'd just be a boring old fart who had never done anything!!

I lived a wild life from 21-35. Dj’d parties. Worked in a strip club. High-flying bank job working with Silicon Valley tech. BMW. Drunk all-nighters. Hot girlfriends. But after 35 I settled down and got married. Now I have two daughters. I have more fun now than I ever did being some single jerk working in finance. Society lied to you. Real wealth is having a family you have fun with.

The Three EPs by The Beta Band sounds nothing like The Beatles. Yet it’s completely Beatlesesque in how it captures their spirit of adventure, inventiveness, creativity, and the way they can effortlessly switch genres on a dime while always sounding like the same band.

Qué buena pregunta es: cuál es el disco más Beatle de un artista que no sea los Beatles? He leído respuestas que van desde The Cars hasta Panic at the Disco, pasando por Wilco o Big Star. Maravilloso

Sorry to say I’ve pretty much decided to scale back my posts on this platform. I’m not coming off completely, but my days of spending 4 or 5 hours a day producing posts seen by about 500 people have got to come to an end. I’m fed up on my own feed seeing countless posts about Trump or Elon Musk or random people from the USA who are constantly spouting their MAGA nonsense. For an account that is purely about Manchester United you have got to ask yourself what algorithms is Musk telling his people to inflict on others? I’ve had enough. #MUFC #UTFR #GGMU #ManchesterUnited #ManUtd

This isn’t even capitalism. It’s medieval lordship. Father starts a war. Sons sell the weapons to countries that need his protection to survive. Buyers know the purchase is tribute. Saddam Hussein would have recognised it instantly. The US isn’t a democracy right now. It’s a protection racket with a flag. Britain needs to face that fact - and build something different with Europe before it’s too late.

Imagine if Iran bombed and destroyed the Golden Gate Bridge in California, what would you call it? TERRORISTS The U.S bombed and destroyed the highest bridge in Iran, the B1 bridge, why do you call it “PEACE”? Bombing a bridge is a war crime under international humanitarian law

WATCH: The White House took down this video, but we still have it. Trump: We can't take care of daycare. We're a big country. We're fighting wars. It's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid, Medicare, all these things.

Babylon Zoo: Spaceman (1996). Originally used for a Levi's jeans ad in 1995 after a rare demo version was played on a Manchester radio station - that's how we rolled in the '90s! This was the only real hit for the Wolverhampton indie rockers when it was released the following year. Top 10 across all of Europe, No 1 in the UK, France and Germany, and then they faded away...

BREAKING: Trump’s birthright citizenship scheme implodes after lawyer’s JAW-DROPPING courtroom blunder about Native Americans. Donald Trump sent his top lawyer to the Supreme Court to argue that birthright citizenship should be stripped from hundreds of thousands of American-born babies. It went so badly that his own solicitor general nearly argued Native Americans aren't citizens either — and had to be rescued by a Trump-appointed justice. In one of the most jaw-dropping exchanges of Wednesday's already disastrous hearing, Justice Neil Gorsuch — appointed by Trump himself — pressed Solicitor General D. John Sauer on the logical consequences of the administration's own legal theory. The exchange was as stunning as it was revealing. Gorsuch asked a simple question: under the administration's proposed test for birthright citizenship, are Native Americans born today automatically citizens? Sauer's answer was a slow-motion legal train wreck. First, he said yes — obviously. Then Gorsuch pushed him to set aside the statutes granting Native Americans citizenship and answer based purely on the administration's own constitutional theory. Sauer's answer changed: "No." Under the 1868 congressional debates, he explained, children of tribal Indians were not considered birthright citizens. The courtroom went quiet. Gorsuch pressed harder. But under your test — the domicile test you want this court to adopt today — are tribal Native Americans born on U.S. soil birthright citizens? Sauer fumbled. "I think so... I have to think that through, but that's my reaction." "I'll take the yes," Gorsuch replied — essentially throwing the solicitor general a life preserver before he could drown any further. Let's be absolutely clear about what just happened. The Trump administration walked into the highest court in the land with a legal theory so sweeping, so poorly thought through, that when a justice applied it logically, the government's own lawyer couldn't guarantee that Native Americans — people whose nations existed on this continent thousands of years before the United States did — would qualify as birthright citizens. This is the constitutional chaos that Trump's executive order invites. Once you start unraveling the 14th Amendment's guarantee that all persons born on American soil are citizens, there is no clean stopping point. The administration's own lawyer proved that in real time, in front of the entire nation, while Trump was still in the building — before he turned tail and fled. The 14th Amendment was written to be clear precisely because America had already lived through the horror of deciding that some people born here weren't really citizens. The Supreme Court has upheld birthright citizenship for 157 years. And Trump's lawyer just demonstrated, in spectacular fashion, exactly why those 157 years of precedent exist. Please like and share this post if you believe the Constitution means what it says — for everyone born on American soil.

“A prominent celebrity photographer I have known for decades played golf with Donald a couple of times and found himself in a group text chain with him, told me Donald would often send nude photos of young women he has slept with along with lewd and graphic descriptions of the trysts. My pal quickly left the group, disgusted by Trump’s behavior; it was years before Trump became president but the depth of his depravity seemed very evident in hindsight. The paparazzo regrets not taking screen shots, but feared his wife would see them on his phone and somehow think he was condoning the lascivious behavior. There’s hundreds of stories like these in NYC, as Trump never hid his deviancy; people in his orbit just sort of chose to look the other way. Donald is the kind of insecure man who cares more about boasting about his exploits than he does any sense of decorum or respect for the women in involved. We also know it was not only women but also many girls that he attacked, sexually abused and threatened in his years of partnership and predation with Jeffrey Epstein. He is a criminal in every sense of the word.” open.substack.com/pub/noelcasler…

The end of America’s involvement in Iran marks the beginning of the end for NATO as we know it. For decades, the US carried 60% of the burden while Western Europe freeloaded. Now, in active war: • Spain & France blocked US airspace • Germany sneered “not our war” • Italy (Meloni) denied US planes Sicily bases • Macron refused US arsenal overflight to Israel • UK even denied Diego Garcia access NATO is finished.

What a fucking embarrassment. American troops are being sent into harm’s way in Iran and this fucking idiot is doing his double jerkoff dance while waving a sword, like a drunk uncle at a wedding. This is who has the nuclear codes. America is a parody.

Seems odd that a tournament that was hugely oversubscribed for tickets will now be selling tickets to the general public on a first come, first served basis. But when it comes to FIFA, anything goes?

I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation as the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use in Iran. This is a picture of Tehran. For you uneducated, untraveled, never-served, warhawks licking your chops at the thought of bombing it. It's not some low population desert. There are families, children, family pets. Regular working class people with dreams. You're sick to want war. Tehran is a city of nearly 10,000,000 people. Imagine nuking Washington, Berlin, Paris, London, or beyond, bombed with nuclear weapons. I gave up my diplomatic career to leak this information. I suspended my duties so as not to be part of or a witness to this crime against humanity, in an attempt to prevent a nuclear winter before it is too late. Yesterday, nearly ten million people protested “No Kings” in the United States. The possibility of the use of nuclear weapons must be taken very seriously. It's dangerous. Act now. Spread this message worldwide. Take the streets. Protest for our humanity and future. Only the people can stop it. History will remember us.
