Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 23hEarl Grey was our PM when this big tortoise was born. He's been there from the launch of earl grey right through to the popularisation of bubble tea, and I bet he's never tasted any of it 010
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 06/10/2026That sounds great. I'm going to keep an eye out for it - do you know if it's getting a wider release soon? 110
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 01/10/2026Another theory (admittedly based on nothing, just entirely speculative/hypothetical) is that it would be squeaky bum time now for any other clubs/execs who have partaken in dodgy deals and which city, who have little left to lose, might know about 000

Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 30/09/2026It'll be interesting to see what it all means for the other clubs in the City franchise like Girona who are part-owned by Guardiola's brother, or Troyes who City bought Savinho from 010
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Seems really surprising the Man City charges apparently weren't mentioned during their negotiations for new signings / contract renewals (Ornstein believes). Surely players' agents & lawyers asked for some sort of clause or insurance. Their recent splurge is one of the weird aspects of it all 001

Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 26/09/2026The varied cast of dodgy characters attracted to football ownership shows how desperately it needed regulation. State ownership, especially by the worst kind of state or oligarch, multiclub ownership, loading with dubious cash, sportswashing, loading with debt, none should ever have been allowed 020
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Well worth a watch. Who's behind the angry Facebook content that's helping to radicalise a load of white voters in the UK, US & Australia?

A small boat from Normandy spent more than 30 hours at sea. Those on board now on their 2nd rescue vessel as Border Force forced to play cat and mouse with far-right activists who have their own boat. 1042174958

Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I enjoyed that. Also, "with one syllable - rhymes with man" was a surprising option to me 030
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Clearly bonkers decision. But City savvy and United terrible, created virtually nothing other than Mainoo and Rashford hitting the post 001
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Yep. There's those little robots delivering shopping near us. Not quite sure of the benefit other than taking what was someone's job and doing it less well. And, as you say, losing a bit of human interaction. 011

Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 04/09/2026As ever the bit I heard on the Today programme led with the top line of a Reform press release instead of the main news story, ie "Reform say they fell victim to a hoax when..." 030
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 04/09/2026As an aside, the irony of them allegedly conspiring to break them in a place called Rules is almost too much 020
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Agreed. I really love World Wonders, very highly recommend if you like tile laying. 000
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 30/08/2026A really good board gaming night tonight. Creating a forest village of animals in Everdell; satisfying polyonimo/jigsaw-style city building in World Wonders; and roll-and-write ticking things off as you grow crops in Three Sisters #boardgames 1220

Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 07/08/2026That victimhood's also core to the way they radicalise many of their voters. Take "back" control, ie you've lost it, Make America Great "Again", ie it isn't anymore. Key message: you're a victim. 020
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Got a new roll and write game this week, really enjoying my first few plays. It's a calm and therapeutic puzzle crossing stuff off as you plant and harvest crops, yet also like a slot machine that flashes bonuses up all over the show 🎲🍏 #boardgames 020
Simon O'Hare @simonohare.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Adults in office jobs at least gained some post covid benefits, ie hybrid working, less formal dress etc, whereas it seems kids didn't 😕. Wonder if schools could shift with those times to something something a half day a week doing sport/cultural/workplace enrichment. 160
