if walked into an office where an employer was found to be doing hundreds of millions of pounds of fraud - fraud so bad, in fact, that it brought their entire sector into disrepute - i would find it very odd if everyone was grinning about a successful meeting

quite interesting to see some of the coverage look at how weird the man city player’s response seems to be in a lot of ways. i’m sure winning games is a very nice feeling but i would feel very weird if i was them, i think. kind of odd to do business as usual stuff.

it’s either of these two, the dora call as just awfully, crushingly sad and all the bits of harry working together for ‘detective arriving on the scene’

I know what you mean but with Wirtz I think he’s still got little moments in him, little bits of class here and here (agree not enough for the money like) but Isak’s one of them where I go ‘if he’s not scoring, he’s dead weight’

not to just validate my own preferences about the reds being best when we’re boxing clever on transfers but Jacquet and Munoz look really decent and I’m rapidly losing patience with Isak

He gets a bit of stick sometimes but I’ve always really rated Curtis Jones, genuinely sad to see him go. Can really see a world where we’re looking back on this in a couple of years and wondering why we sold him.

highly dependent on vibe (as in, these are Not Sit Down Meal places) but sonora taqueria in stoke newington is really very good, and if bad manners is still open their breakfast burritos are pretty ace.

Henrik Ibsen! Harald Hardrada! Magnus Carlsen! Ole Gunnar Solksjaer! Roald Amundsen! Edvard Munch! We have beaten them all. Edvard Munch can you hear me? I have a message for you: We have knocked Norway out! Edvard Munch - your boys took a hell of a beating! Your boys took a hell of a beating!

Alright 007, the boffins in Q section have been hard at work on this limited edition Labubu. It attaches to your carhartt manbag normally, completely inconspicuous. But unclip it and press down on the nose 3 times...

leading economists have concluded that your favorite childhood memories - the joy of a snow day, the smell of fresh-cut grass, the cool wind of summer dusk - were merely Zero-Interest Rate Period phenomena, and have limited relevance for today's macro environment
