Well this is my Sunday sorted: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-q2M... Some great acts here. The Neighorhood Kids are a great group, kinda reminding me a bit of Rebel Diaz. Jack Sabbath with some great kids in the band. Cypress, PE, and DKM singing an adaptation of The Wolfe Tones' The Men Behind The Wire

This sort of fall takes house prices back to where they were only a few years ago, when the headlines were about the insane unaffordability. It's the more expensive homes (already over inflated) which are experiencing a drop - the lower end of the market has barely moved.

A truly heinous man has doxxed the Cornell victim on X and the comments are predictably vile. Based on countless interviews I’ve done with survivors, the trauma they are subjected to for coming forward is oftentimes even worse than the initial trauma they experienced. There is no real justice system
