Expand Gateshead stadium to 30k. Maybe some temporary stands. Saudis could afford it and add some branding too. ST holders to get dibs on alternate matches and a promise of a seat at Leazes Park stadium.

I can but I'll be facing the wrong way. Wdit: Fuck off ewerk. Come here, steal our jokes.

I thought of you when I said it. As the World turns more to shit, the more will come to your way of thinking. DOES THAT MAKE YOU HAPPY????

Aye. I'm beginning to think Trump offers a window of opportunity for Labour to be brave, come off the fence, and pivot to the EU. Polls overwhelmingly show most people want closer ties with the EU and not a Trump America. Instead the opposite is happening. I mean it might not work. But at least fucking try. Better to die on you feet than on your knees etc.

I don't think the written messages are proof of much tbh. People write strange things, and if it all had been down to chance she might well still have felt guilty. Honestly don't know enough about the rest of the case against her. However, things like this, I leave entirely to the professionals in medicine, psychology, statistics etc, and the judiciary.

You know the worst thing? This response was predicted a long time ago, going as far back as the referendum. People have said this is what he will do, it is documented. And he still does it, and it still works, and he still gets away with it without challenge. I mean apart from the fact the man is a right wing cunt, can you even imagine what would happen to the country in terms of competent governance within days of his election? It would be the end of us.

From the Guardian feed. Well, I helped them summarise.

Someone remind us too that he wants to abolish the NHS so his mate Trump can introduce a private health care system. That will be a sure fire vote winner.

For clarity, I wasn't being sarcastic or doubting you. I mean, it is absolutely bewildering to me what his appeal is to anyone. The BBC and MSM refuse to treat him like a normal politician though which is a big part of it. He has zero policies and is never pressed on this (let alone his countless demonstrable lies previously). 🤷‍♂️

I dunno. @Rayvin tells me, unbelievably, Farage is down with the kids.

And this. The implication being the last time we met I looked ill, you cheeky cunt.

Well no like. People are generally concerned you've got cancer if you drop weight, or some other horrific disease. Gaining weight just makes you a fat cunt which has implications relating to your moral fibre, so is impolite.

I need to put some muscle mass on for the next step I think. Still, losing 15kg without resorting to ozempic is an achievement. Of course, as you lose weight your calorie requirements come down as well, even my Google app tells me this. It literally becomes harder the more you lose. Talking of aging, I'm off for a another thing this afternoon I get to do more of at this age, a funeral. My suit actually fits me now which is a bonus. All my old clothes do. 👍

Gets much harder. 50 milestone is the bitch. I've lost a lot of weight but stalled now at 85 kg. Doesn't matter what I do I can't seem to get passed this number. Do 10,000 steps plus religiously, live on fucking salads. And I am still in the overweight section of the cunting BMI chart.

Only times I've been to Brick lane was when I was taken by someone who knew the score. Best curries I have ever had, better than Rusholme even. Added bonus you could take your own drink.

Am the same. Spent most the weekend doing job applications, so feel I got no break. I must be one of the few people willing to take a 20% pay cut and still struggling to get into the sector I want to. I'm going to London with the family at the weekend to see Circque de Soleil at the Albert Hall, so looking forward to that. Might go to the tower of London during the day.

Fuck off.

American exceptionalism is another sign of fascism. Hitler created this narrative in Germany in the 1930s. The similarities are becoming ever more jarring for me. The irony being the average Joe American is actually pretty poorly educated and not very skilled. They don't lack self confidence though.

I guess he's hoping that as countries like Canada are much more exposed they will capitulate before the negative impact on consumers become apparent. What I don't get about this though is the damage it does to US soft power. Why bother negotiating a trade deal with the US, like Canada and Mexico have with NAFTA, when the orange shit gibbon doesn't hesitate on breaking it? But it goes further than that. Why have a US military base on your soil if they won't protect you etc? I think this will be the long term effect of Trumpism. Countries will have to rely less on the US going forward as they are at best an unreliable partner, at worst, a hostile one with trojan horses.

Wonder which people he is talking about here.? Surely not those lovely WHITE South Africans? This has got Musk written all over it, he won't rest until full apartheid is reintroduced.

We're between a rock and a hard place now and Trump knows it. If we get a relative sweet heart deal from the US (it won't be a good deal whatever it is), the EU will not be impressed. If we go for closer ties with the EU, the US will sanction us and right wing nutters here (which includes the official opposition) will do there thing in dividing the country. Economic gravity dictates apart from anything else we should go for closer ties with the EU. As does basic morality, you have to stand up to bullies. But I can see yet another shit storm on the horizon as Trump and Putin try to destroy Europe.

Boro twatting the FMLs would make me half smile too, maybe.

He seems to be serious about his Canada being the 51st state thing. I'd love it if Canada cut off their electricity.
