This game, man. The sense of scale and destruction combined with the stunning visuals and graphics, it's incredible. #gearsofwar #eday

Annoyed me greatly that AEW, owned by a man who runs a football club, took so many words to explain the most basic knockout competition.

One of the most fun experiences is going on this podcast and talking absolute pony with some lads. Please give this week's episode of Dynamic Resolution, featuring myself, a listen and subscribe if you enjoy it. 🫡

I bought The Blizzard quarterly for the first time in years, and looks like they've used AI-generated art. Bitterly, depressingly disappointing. I have no fucking appetite to read this.

Absolutely bizarre timeline we're in when the president of the European parliament is giving a statement about the death of an American rage bait artist
European Parliament president Roberta Metsola said: “Shocked at the absolutely horrific assassination of Charlie Kirk in Utah today. Our thoughts and prayers are with his wife and young children – who were the bedrock of his life. May they find strength and may he rest in peace.”

Just got reminded about the chap who created that dirge Damo & Ivor and his bizarre turn to the far right. He's gone full flag stagger in his latest post. Why exactly would the government take down Ireland flags?? They live in a different reality.

Headline from a Haaretz article, which reads: 'It's a Killing Field': IDF Soldiers Ordered to Shoot Deliberately at Unarmed Gazans Waiting for Humanitarian Aid. 

The subheading reads: IDF officers and soldiers told Haaretz they were ordered to fire at unarmed crowds near food distribution sites in Gaza, even when no threat was present. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed, prompting the military prosecution to call for a review into possible war crimes.

"Fuck the guy who broke into the top four, regularly brought us to Europe and reached a cup final."
Extract from a Toffeeweb article, which reads: "I want to say it’s a huge mistake by The Friedkin Group but nobody knows how it will pan out. He may succeed… but then some Everton fans claim those painful 11 years when he was Kenwright’s poodle were a success for him and for Everton. Whereas all I remember is failure: 

•    Failure in Champions League
•    Failure to beat any of the top teams  
•    Failure in the FA Cup semi-final against Liverpool
•    Failure in FA Cup Final against Chelsea"
