@DeniseDavies34J @BenKentish Unfortunately people aren’t allowed to be bored, hot or anything else for a short while anymore. Remember I had home ec one day in a heatwave. With ovens blaring too 🤣 that was fun.

He isn’t … there are plenty of vested interests who want us to believe he is…

[Jonathan Pie @JonathanPieNews]

that's one way of spinning it...

@KirstieMAllsopp Aussie here. We’ve had the under 16 social media ban for a little while now. The parents I’ve spoken to about it are very happy it’s in place. There’s no ifs or buts just plain no because it’s against the law.

[Kirstie Allsopp @KirstieMAllsopp]

So you aren’t worried about the kids, you’re just worried you’ll be questioned regarding what you want to see on the internet?

[Rory Sutherland @rorysutherland]

Here's something that pisses me off. A train weighs hundreds of tons and costs perhaps £20 million, yet it's usually better to get wifi on a train by connecting to your own phone, which costs a few hundred pounds and weighs 200g.

My theory is that train companies deliberately make on-train wifi crap so they can claim to some innumerate fuckwits at the DfT that noone uses it, and therefore that they don't need to provide it

Rail companies love to generate bogus data to serve their own ends. Southeastern got rid of First Class, claiming that no-one was buying First Class season tickets. Since this was at the end of the pandemic, this was hardly surprising.

The real reason was it allowed them to put utterly manky single-class "Sprinter" trains - with no tables and five-abreast seating - on the Tunbridge Wells to Charing Cross route.

@DeniseDavies34J So simple isn’t it. But people love to throw weird views at it. Blaming digital id etc (because they think the government don’t know enough already from their passport, drivers license, bank, facebook etc etc 🤣)

I hadn’t understood why so many people were getting their knickers in a twist re having to prove they were over 16 to use social media, after all we do it all the time for driving, alcohol & cigarettes, it’s about porn isn’t it?

[The Footy Feed @TheFootyFeed]

Back when football was proper. Kids these days don't know how elite this duo was...

@British_Airways @d_matthewson This shouldn’t matter at all !

[Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson]

Not that anybody asked, but in the time that has elapsed since the @NYKnicks last won a championship, we’ve discovered eight new Subatomic Particles. J-Psi Meson / Tau Lepton / Bottom Quark / Gluon / W-Z Boson / Top Quark / Tau Neutrino / Higgs Boson

[Daniel Lismore @daniellismore]

Yup

[Ben Joyce @130heath]

@British_Airways @rusnewton98 But then never board swiftly …..

[Neil deGrasse Tyson @neiltyson]

If I were ever abducted by Aliens, the first thing I’d ask is whether they came from a planet where people also deny science.

[The Football Feed @TheFootballFeed]

This is spot on 👍

[Boring Milner @BoringMilner]

FIFA just quietly changed football from two 45minute halves to four 22.5minute quarters and we’re only just realising.

I love it because it sucks the life out of games but are we sure we want this?

[Miguel Delaney @MiguelDelaney]

In 2023, Indonesia were stripped of the under-20 World Cup for refusing to allow the Israeli team entry.

Fifa's justification then was the vague "due to the current circumstances".

Quite a contrast to the hardline "FIFA is not involved in host immigration processes" now.

[talkSPORT @talkSPORT]

"Its not a world cup if you don't allow the world to come in!"

Former referee, Christina Unkel, SLAMS decision to refuse Omar Artan entry to the US!
