The rule is simple. The player's reaction overrules EVERYTHING. The goal umpire. The technology. The fans. And also BT in the comms box.

I give it about 20 minutes before some seemingly harmless boomer-trap meme account tweets “RT if you love puppies” then tanks a thousand careers by editing it to “RT if you love Hitler” twitter.com/Twitter/status…

Everyone making fun of Boris for saying buy a kettle to save £10 a year electric (from year three onwards) but no one saying it's a genius idea: buy three kettles save £30 per year! I've bought two hundred kettles, I'm gonna be laughing as you all freeze!

Can I introduce you to the "radio producer method" of reading books? Read the first 30 pages, the last 10 pages, any chapters with titles which take your fancy, and then just open to 3 random pages and read those. Job done.

James Chessell: “Under the new model, where @AAPNewswire is basically a government funded model with a bit of commercial revenue on the side, I think that’s more sustainable. What do we [Nine] get from it? I’m not going to lie, it gives us cover when there’s industrial action”

Every time a politician does their little agree to interview then pull out trick the BBC should put on an one hour long soft touch feature with the the opposition parties. Keir Starmer cooks pasta and is completely uninterrupted talking about his policies. Ed Davey playing piano.

It's disgusting.
Teaching is a public service. It is thankless, even less so nowadays. This is cruel and Fox doesn't care who gets hurt.
And let's be very clear: Fox doesn't actually care that there's a teacher shortage either.

But tbh the state of umpiring an absolute state. The free Carlton got early 3rd quarter when holding the ball unbelievably bad. Don’t know how much longer can keep watching the game of #AFL when such ump decisions common each week for/against all teams. Farcical. #AFLBluesPies
