"Guardiola is no longer at City. But it isn’t because he has taken a stand. [...] On one level, you can understand why Guardiola is taking this position. He has to believe because, otherwise, what’s the alternative? That it was all for nothing?"

To lose visitors in the year you HOST THE WORLD CUP and celebrate a big anniversary is truly incredible.

Can't wait for the Saturday after next. Drive up to the mountains for an annual apple festival (I'm talking pies, jams, juices, liquor, cider, preserves, etc.) followed by a return to Limassol for the premier of a week-long short festival festival. The two always coincide.

Can't tell if this is him exerting pressure on the regulator(s) in order to avoid this scenario from happening or pre-emptively expressing regret because of its high likelihood to shield himself from any blowback.
Andy Burnham has said he would be “really concerned” to lose Manchester City’s owners as a result of the club being found guilty of more than 100 breaches of Premier League rules

This notion of bigoted beliefs being a protected characteristic like gender or race is just absolutely barmy. Those of us who’ve experienced genuine discrimination for who we are know there’s no comparison, and the political and legal collusion on this stuff is disastrous.

Dear City fans, Your club has been found guilty of 114 charges. Not if. Not maybe. Not possibly. Guilty on 114 of 115 charges. Period. Full Stop. You didn't break the law yourself and as a fellow football fan, I can see how and why you defended your club. It's natural. But that time is over.

These things "work" by hoovering up your data. Your messages? Your emails and documents? Every click and mouse move you make? (Ever clicked yes to the "Enable telemetry" option?) You are two things to them: a source of data for their data soup, and a customer to sell it all back to.

I know city fans are sick of all this, and some even think theyve done nothing wrong, but it is objectively very funny how guilty they are yet still trying to worm out or cope with it.

Medieval Spain might have produced some of the creepiest works of art or artisanal designs in history. Mix of hardcore religion, royal power, colonialism and wealth made for some frankly disturbing imagery. No wonder Plague Tale works so much from an aesthetics point of view.

This was *very* nice. Really appreciating Spain's approach to going out at night, where stepping out at 9pm counts as early and restaurant kitchens stay open late.

By the time this merger ruins HBO, destroys WB, gets 5,000 people fired, moves production overseas, and guts the quality of the movies the new studio makes, most people will have forgotten how fast the AGs caved and how little they got in this deal. Writers will not.
