@CokeSipper@AesculusGlabra_ Guy switched his fandom to the shittiest city and teams in sports. If anything I respect it lol. Not like he’s a dodgers celtics duke and chiefs fan
I feel like I’m losing my mind. This dude is THE Chicago sports fan at a major media company and he literally became a Chicago sports fan to get a job at that company. He’s the Rachel Dolezal of sports media
@dieworkwear My father wants to get me a blazer made by his tailor as a Christmas present. What material/pattern options would be something that can be both business-ish and casual? Ideally it would work well with both a light and dark pant to provide flexibility in my wardrobe. Thanks!
Such artisans include Yohei Fukuda (of his eponymous company), Kotaro Miyahira (Corcos), Noriyuki Ueki (Ciccio), Yusuche Ono (Anglofilo), Noriyuki Higashi (Raffaniello), Hojun Choi (Sartoria Salabianca), and Zhang Xiao (also operating under her own name).
There's a popular narrative here that says immigrants are destroying Western culture.
I'd like to assert the opposite: immigrants are not only contributing to Western culture, they are often saving parts of it. Let's explore. 🧵
@Ogilvie_CJ@brownliberite Counterpoint: is this not the hub model that the American airlines use? I'd like to know the volume of people flying from Newcastle/Manchester to London as their final destination vs flying to Heathrow to get a connection to somewhere further
@brownliberite There’s no market for 1,000 seat trains Manchester/Birm-Paris.
Airline style security/passenger isolation/immigration impossible Birm/Manch.
25,000 a day fly 120 planes London-Man/Glas/Edinb/Ncastle.
That’s the airline market to target with fast, high capacity trains.
@jayjacobwhite@edwinhayward Good take on a podcast this weekend - maybe These Times but could be any of 10 I listened to. The Lib Dems are in a good spot because the incumbent parties have done badly across the west. They’re surging but aren’t incumbent so can build on this
She is being cheeky. Lib Dem’s have got themselves back to where they should be. As we all know, Clegg made the decision to get into bed with the tories and it killed them. Had Clegg not got into bed with anyone at the time and played the long game: The Lib Dem’s could actually be a really strong party by now.
THREAD: The BBC have been having an absolute shocker the last couple of days.
Let's concentrate on 3 specific examples.
Example 1: Laura Kuenssberg's diabolic introduction to her interview with Ed Davey.
No spoilers. Wait until the end. It's worth it.
Absolute embarrassment. This was 10 mins ago just before I left the fanzone. And spare me the “few idiots” line, there’s thousands here singing it. I hope #Eng lose and I’ll happily watch it from the comfort of my own home nowhere near any of these morons. Shame on you #EURO2024
@FootballCliches a very jarring “advantage three lions” on the itv news summary of the penalties. Can we have an international edition of “Team A traveled to Team B this afternoon…..” please
Apart from the horrific public transport, the worst wi-fi i’ve ever used in Europe, flight cancellations and every city being crackhead central.. What a week in Germany 🇩🇪
