I'm an England fan but I hope they get battered by whoever they play in the last 16, just so I don't have to watch any more of this insomnia-curing boredom.
Femi is just as much of a grifter, so I won't bother watching that.
With so few MPs left and a desperation in the party, he can pitch himself as the best candidate to beat Starmer and, he may well be.
Rishi Sunak currently has higher opinion poll ratings on "who would make the best Prime Minister?" than Farage. The threat of Farage is overblown. Most people don't want him as Prime Minister.
Because we live in a society that doesn't read articles anymore, and gets all of their news just from headlines.
It's easier for editors to make a provocative headline than it is to make a balanced one.
I am not and never have been an apologist or supporter of Putin. His invasion of Ukraine was immoral, outrageous and indefensible. As a champion of national sovereignty, I believe that Putin was entirely wrong to invade the sovereign nation of Ukraine. Nobody can fairly accuse me of being an appeaser. I have never sought to justify Putin’s invasion in any way and I’m not now.
Bet they didn't quote this bit though, eh?
That article has no substance whatsoever.
It's all just guesswork.
"So what I'm going to do is travel around the world and harass animals for television."
I guess you weren't paying attention to the opinion polls at the last election.
Never in doubt. 😂
He's got tae score, Clive. He's got tae score!
It's magic. It really is.
It's just the ultra paranoid on here, who think that someone knowing they watch The Mandalorian is going to be used against them in some way.
What's wrong with just "not connecting it"?
File this under "expectation management".
Joe Biden warned of this in the 90s: https://www.newsweek.com/joe-biden-resurfaced-clip-russia-baltic-states-1997-video-1685864
Saying that Russia's actions are abhorrent and also saying that NATO expansion has given Russia an excuse are two perfectly legitimate viewpoints to hold.
There are examples of sex offenders then pretending to be trans to be put in a women's prison though. There was a famous example of that in Scotland recently.
All because they could just "self-identify" and apparently that was good enough for him to be moved to a women's prison. Absolute insanity.
England and France were apparently joint favourites and yet they've both been dreadful so far.
France haven't even scored a goal in their first two matches!
I've got a job interview on Tuesday and I haven't had one for a while due to a period of unemployment because of family health issues.
One part of interviews I've always struggled with is when they first ask you to tell them about yourself. I struggle to talk about myself anyway and never know what they'd like me to actually say, whether it's about me as a person or about my work history.
So any tips or tricks would be welcome.
I have an Emma Original Pillow that I've had for three years and the support is basically non-existent now, so I wake up in the night and end up with neck and shoulder pain.
I've tried a Panda Hybrid pillow and a Simba Hybrid firm pillow but neither were any good to me. The Panda was too low for sleeping on my back and the Simba didn't have the support I needed. If I was purely a side sleeper it would be probably be okay, but of course I have to be awkward.
I generally prefer memory foam pillows, but it's been so long since I've had a good night's sleep, I'm willing to try anything.
I'm a lover of physical books but I'm looking to get an e-reader as well, for those books that are hard to find physical copies of, or are just very expensive.
I've ruled out Onyx, because I try to avoid Chinese tech as it's usually poorly made. But I'm not sure whether Kindle or Kobo is best. Is being tied to Amazon's ecosystem too restricting? Are the Kobo e-readers compatible with everything you need? Which ones have the best screens, ideally how a physical book would look?
So many questions, but hopefully some of you can help. 😁
I've suffered with anxiety since I was a kid, and things like CBT don't seem to work for me at all. I know pills from the doctor are available, but I only want to go down that route as a last resort.
So does anyone have any experience with CBD products for treating anxiety? The reviews online seem mixed on whether they actually work.
Looking to attend a Comic Con for the first time next month and I want to meet Nolan North for either a photo or an autograph.
I know neither of them will give you much time with the guest, but which do you think is the best value for money?

Loved this game and can't wait for this DLC to play more of it.
The Online Safety Bill has faced criticism from Big Tech companies over privacy and security fears. Have ministers had a change of heart?

Almost like it was a non-starter. Who could have possibly foreseen that?
Rev up the Action, Score the Goal Rocket Car Where Champions Are Born
I was browsing the PS Store and spotted three of these complete rip-off games, all from the same company. And they're not even subtle rip-offs either.
Take Rocket Car as an example. Looks remarkably similar to something else, doesn't it?
Then there's Construction Machine Simulator. Again, remind you of anything else? Okay, there's a few of these type of games, but this one doesn't even try and disguise that it's ripping off the main game in this genre: https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/EP6326-CUSA43614_00-0303332389496733
And finally, there's Wash Simulator. Yet another not even subtle rip off of another popular game: https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/concept/10008957
These are the only ones I've spotted from a quick browse through the Store, I assume there is more. But how on Earth do companies get away with stuff like this? I can understand it on mobile app stores, but are there no checks before these games are put on the PS Store?
The dark theme across Google's first-party apps are generally more gray than black. Google Play is now testing a a much darker dark theme...

Noticed this earlier on the Play Store and thought I was going mad. 😂
It's a nice change though!
Looking to buy one of these for use around the house, but I'm not overly knowledgeable about them.
The Bose Soundlink Flex seems to have good reviews from the bit of research that I've done, but any recommendations from you guys on good ones to buy?
Someone sent me a DM to test it out but pressing it on doesn't do anything, so there's no way to respond. I had to log in to the website to reply.
I haven't checked GitHub, so I don't know if this is known or not.
When scrolling the feed or opening a post, the app has suddenly started freezing and there's no option other than to close it completely. But it will very quickly lock up again.
This is on Android using a Pixel 4a.
At the moment, there doesn't seem to be a way of knowing whether you have any messages or replies in your inbox without manually checking it yourself.
