….what the heck is in ‘The Passion of the Christ 2’?
Incredible window for Everton. A, 9/10. There will be lots of unnecessary moaning about the lack of a new RB, but it’s not like we don’t have depth there. Unless you’re signing a nailed on starter, which they obviously didn’t feel they could, no point just adding more names. #EFC
I just want to pick up some ramen guys….
Newcastle have been involved in the game of the season, and two of the worst football games I’ve seen in years.
“The mystery box could be anything, even a boat!”
Does that mean they just drop you in Spain as a halfway house?
Agree - one of those games where it was going to take something like a pen for someone to get a goal as both sides couldn’t create anything!
Yeah, I think the fact he’s trying to block it with his chest means it shouldn’t be, because it’s a matter of inches with a ball travelling at speed. But you probably deserved to win anyway, we were rotten - in the first half especially.
By the letter of the law it is - it just doesn’t satisfy the first criteria here, leaning or not.
He’s trying to block the shot with his chest - is he meant to just not try to block shots now in case it hits the top of an arm that’s tucked behind his back?
I don’t know what Tarkowski is meant to do with his arms to avoid a penalty there. You could ask the referee to draw a picture of where he can put them and there wouldn’t be anywhere #EFC #UTFT
12 tracks does at least suggest someone has intervened since the debacle of the bloated last album.
“Lads, do you think anyone will notice Harry’s voice, height and body type change from scene to scene?”
That article reveals they spent 18 weeks in pre-production and are filming S1 (and some bits of S2, possibly) in 10 months, with a plan to release one season a year. It’s like they haven’t sat down and just added those numbers up.
These are absolutely gross - I basically find you have to have a mouthful of water to cover the texture.
These are the top replies, being financially rewarded for posting this stuff, and the explanation offered by the site’s own AI for why it’s like that. Anyway just flicking through the Sunday newspapers reading about some minor content infractions that Ofcom might look into at the BBC/Channel 4.
This must be a troll. It must be.
Also, and I *know* this both isn’t the point and exposes my pedantry, it should be ‘Delivered by whom?’
The purple clues in #Connections today is possibly the stupidest group ever, and only works if you mispronounce at least two of the words.
I listened to a podcast the other day where a guest said the USMNT would make the World Cup semi finals….
Americans also don’t understand this format which has led to baffling looks when I tell them it’s ’quarter to 4’
There are various stories about what happened, but most of them have those common details!
Cian Fahey?
(They did burn a large part of their house down to require said new kitchen, so it probably wasn’t worth it just for the tap…)
My parents got one of these in their new kitchen and struggle to imagine a time before it.
The man in charge of investigating watch thefts is called Andy Swindells.
I am getting some ‘But I knew wanted to watch Rogue One after Andor so that’s actually a great recommendation!’ If you knew you were going to watch it, it didn’t need recommending. Good recommendation engine = discovery, not search shortcuts.
But those people who watched it again likely knew they were going to watch it again, it didn’t need recommendation. Recommendation is meant to introduce discovery and variety, not just be a shortcut to searching for things I know I want to find.
That’s the point though, you already knew you were going to watch it so it didn’t need recommending. Recommendations algorithms are meant to help you discover new things, not present things you know you wanted to watch in the first place.
An entire library of Disney content, and its top recommendations for me are 4 things from the same universe, 3 about the same character and 2 literally about the TV show *I just finished*, including a recap of the 1st season.
Disney’s recommendation system is so hilariously bad. ‘Hey, you’ve just finished watching Andor, do you want to watch 3 more things specifically about Andor?’
Also, after Sopranos and now Breaking Bad, which greatest of all time TV show contender is next for you?
I am so excited for when you finish the next one, which is a top 3 in the whole series.
My wife, a PhD who used a lot of code in her doctorate, laments not having GPT a few years earlier to save herself searching for where she’d accidentally not put one character in 1000s of lines of code.
Two day hangovers from what 22 yr old me would classify as ‘a standard night in Sports & Social’
All those people using AI to cheat their way through university are in for a shock in the real world when they can’t think for themselves.
See also people saying ‘Oh you’ll be fine, they’re not after you!’, as if there is any order or logic to this incompetence.
What an absolutely horrendous name. #EFC
I have a simple solution to this. Grade students entirely by means of three hour hand-written exams in a big hall with no computers. If they all fail because they never learned to write without AI, sucks to be them
If, as Tressie and the many people in the replies who agree with her do, you think that literal British citizens, inventing recipes in Britain, are in fact “Indian”, you need to have another, more careful think. Because what you’ve said is pretty racist.
The first clue should have been that his surname is literally Iamaleava.
Or indeed that the UK doesn’t ever have dry, sunny days.
Questions I get asked as a Brit living in the US: 1. Are you Australian? 2. Who’s your PL team? 3. I’m going to London, any tips? That’s it. It’s in fact a fascinating realisation that they really, really, really don’t think about the UK at all.

Whenever my wife asks what the weather is going to be there is a decent chance I will go ‘IT GON’ RAIN!’ followed by ‘EVERYBODY LOOKS LIKE ANTS!’
Something Bluesky should fix is that when you open the Following feed multiple times a day on desktop, it keeps showing you the same posts from other feeds you follow over and over again
That is a terrible tackle by Tarkowski. Absolutely so idea how he’s escaped a red card. #EFC
I think we have to retire the ‘Leopards eating faces’ meme now, because it has peaked.
It says a lot about me that my initial thought was ‘How will getting the Communication Workers Union involved help?’
E-commerce platform TikTok Shop said it will launch to users in France, Germany, and Italy on Monday, expanding its reach further into Europe even as TikTok faces being shut down in the US if Chinese owner ByteDance does not find an American buyer reut.rs/3QNHBXb
The park near my house has this slide in the toddler area and I have questions.
"I want to switch over to Bluesky, but I just don't get the kind of engagement I get on Twitter." Wow, you mean your strategy of following 18 people here and showing up once every three weeks to complain about how quiet it is hasn't paid off? Surprising!
I really don’t want to have to block the nice mushroom guy, but I also have tried every feasible thing to stop him showing up on my feeds.
Anyone got an idea why all of my videos now appear like this? It’s for every video and refreshing doesn’t help. @support.bsky.team @bsky.app
Teams do a thing now where they have one player protect the penalty spot and stand with the ball, so that the actual taker can be away from the keeper standing at the spot, opposition players etc. Once the keeper is back and the players have left the area, Tarks would have given it to Beto.
I maintain that come the end of the season we will look back and realise we didn’t need another point after the Leicester game. #EFC
The average podcast length growing and growing is why I have learnt to listen at 2x. I still wouldn’t put myself through this.
WTF is that scoreboard? #SuperBowlLIX

It wouldn’t surprise me at all if we see nothing until after Leicester and then a late flurry once they know where we stand.
Yes, for sure on types of targets but the individual players might change. If you’re in a relegation battle you might need a 9 who can hit the ground running, vs signing someone who might need time to bed in, whereas if you know you’re likely ok you can sign the latter.
I understand this sentiment but I strongly suspect there is an element of waiting until after Leicester before committing to anything substantial. If we win that, the relegation risk is massively reduced and therefore what you’re looking to buy might change to a longer term outlook. #EFC
Thanks Mike!

And now the part of my day where I wonder WTF #Apple were thinking.
Fair. The Witcher 3 mission where you have to retrieve a stolen frying pan is gloriously absurd.
All RPGs are like that to *some* extent. ‘No, I’m not going to go and rescue the children, this old lady needs me to find her goat’ I agree in the laidback element.
I ditched it when I spent an hour on various activities that basically amounted to ‘Grow some vegetables’
He has been good, but I wouldn’t change transfer plans on this basis. If you bring in a winger and move Ndiaye inside you then have Gueye, Doucoure, Garner, Tim & Armstrong for 2 spots. And those options don’t get you relegated. #EFC
I also wish they’d cover what the EO actually says. It isn’t just undocumented immigrants, it’s anyone who isn’t a citizen or permanent resident. So if you’re in the US on a work visa and have a baby, they wouldn’t be a citizen either under this EO.
To be fair, what attacker would want to line up in a Sean Dyche system?
Moshiri’s last gift to Everton is leaving the club so dysfunctional that we couldn’t sack Dyche earlier and get Potter, who will be a tremendous success at West Ham. #EFC
I don’t know what you’re trying to achieve starting Doucoure, especially as a 10. #EFC
Genuinely great advice, I did this a few years ago and it is a game changer. I know my phone is pinging for an actual reason, not because someone I don’t care about updated their LinkedIn status.
‘It’s more of a comment than a question’ Ok, save it for the ‘Comment and answer’ then
Incredibly, everyone else somehow manages to score them.
Your weekly reminder that Steichen needs to fire Gus Bradley. This defense is absolutely embarrassing. #ColtsNation #Colts
Can’t wait for Dyche to say we played well, we have to have the mentality to score a goal and then take a pop at the fans. #EFC
Agree, but the reality is he isn’t going anywhere until the ownership is sorted. #EFC
Friedkin in and Dyche Out cannot happen soon enough. #EFC
And now United convert on exactly the sort of turnover that we regularly cause but don’t score from.
Perennial Everton problem. Play well, awful in the final third, concede. It’s the same inability to convert every week. #EFC
Pittman has to catch that. Richardson again let down by WR…. #ColtsNation
On the other platform, I created a list of about 250 NFL beats/reporters. Decided to create a starter pack here. Not nearly as big but it’ll get there! Follow these accounts for the latest news around the NFL: go.bsky.app/Ju57v7e
When the Queen died, I tweeted a joke about queuing that ended up on breakfast radio in the UK.
I mean, this can’t be any worse than the other place right? #EFC #ColtsNation
