Unai Emery marked four years in charge of Aston Villa with a statement win against Manchester City last weekend. @CottageTactico argues it's very hard to find a more consistent and impressive coaching tenure at a Premier League club in that time. 🔗 fulhamfc.com/news/2026/octob…

Sacha Baron Cohen has said the reason that Ali G 2 has bombed at the Box Office is due to 'anti-semitism' and is part of a wider: "trend of Jews being portrayed in certain ways and trying to be silenced."

Lampard is maybe the worst coach we've ever had

Quite a bit of Everton and Moyes v Dyche focus on this. I'm not sure it's a basis to completely bash Moyes's record vs Dyche. It is, of course only a selected time period and not Moyes entire Premier League record. - Since 22/23 their records are similar. - Since 2015 there is more of a gap, but could argue Dyche was at a club unable to match the clubs Moyes was at. - Third chart plots the changes over time which does show for Moyes things are trending the wrong way. - Fourth chart shows results which show Moyes again declining, but now only down to the Dyche level having set the bar a little higher.

Just last month, DoorDash couldn’t seem to find the money to pay their deliveristas — until our administration forced them to give back $131M+ in stolen wages and penalties. This week, they’ve managed to find $17 billion to acquire one of their main competitors. Corporate consolidation means higher prices, harsher exploitation, and greater economic inequality for New Yorkers. We’ve stood up to these giants before. That doesn’t stop now.

Peak NIMBYism is absolutely having to suffer an American carrying it out as the final boss.

Peak British NIMBYism. Montenegro cannot have an embassy in Pimlico because the daughter of an American diplomat thinks an embassy beside her place is a breach of the human rights and equality act because of her anxiety disorder and long Covid. 🥀🥀🥀

I don’t understand what United fans are angry about, you’ve been mid table for the better part of 10 years. I don’t see Everton fans having weekly meltdowns.

I think the fact that Marissa Mayer would voluntarily disclose this to a reporter is a pretty good demonstration of how deeply the culture of Silicon Valley has diverged from the rest of humanity

So far into the literary crisis that people are bragging about books they havent even read. Congrats you have the most basic interests in existence. Fascinating. Tell me more about what AI thinks you would read if you actually cared about reading.

You can give ChatGPT a photo of an empty bookshelf and ask it to fill the shelves with real books based on what it knows about you. Kinda fun that image gen is so good now!

Tenemos vídeo del año. En Niza un grupo de neonazis quería agredir a los estudiantes que protestan. Uno de ellos se ha llevado un derechazo histórico y después se han ido corriendo en grupo como ratas 😭😭😭 Los nazis dan pena en todas partes.

The worst violence during today’s French protests was this attack on peaceful demonstrators in Nice by masked fascist thugs who beat up people in the street. Needless to say, there will be no coverage of this anywhere in the Anglosphere.

Plusieurs de nos journalistes signalent la présence de membres de l'ultra droite dans le centre-ville de Nice, vers Hôtel des Postes et Alberti. Après avoir été dispersés sur Jean-Médecin par la police, notre journaliste a été témoin d'une scène très violente, stoppée par l'intervention des forces de l'ordre, qu'il qualifie de "surréaliste".

🇨🇳🚨- « L’école n’est pas un business. » La Chine a interdit les écoles privées à but lucratif accueillant des élèves de la primaire au collège. La Chine interdit aux hommes d’affaires de créer des écoles privées pour faire de l’argent avec l’éducation des enfants de 6 à 15 ans, affirmant que l’éducation de base ne doit pas devenir un commerce. Les écoles privées restent autorisées, mais elles doivent être non lucratives : les fondateurs ne peuvent pas se distribuer les bénéfices. (REUTERS)
