By far my favourite Scotland vs Brazil story is the referee saying “Good luck, may the best team win” to both captains before the game in 1982 and Graeme Souness replying “I fucking hope not”
If no theologians could beat Hitchens back then, what chance do they think they have now?
Christopher Hitchens was the ultimate atheist nightmare for religious people.
He destroyed every pastor, theologian and apologist he faced with cold logic, brutal facts and zero mercy. Nobody could win against him.
They still get angry at his arguments because deep down they know he was right.
Rest in power, Hitch 🔥. The man who made God look small.
Big News this morning : The George Washington statue near Fenway Park in Boston has been given the Highest Honour By the 🏴 Scottish Fans. Someone has got up there God knows how and placed a traffic cone □on his heed. 😅🤣😂😂. This is a proud moment for 🏴 Scotland.

One of the funniest things I've ever seen is a hill farmer near Brecon directing his sheepdogs. Come fucking bye. Walk fucking on. Lie fucking down. An adult only version of One Man And His Dog.
In 2010, Andernach, Germany planted 101 varieties of tomatoes in the town center and told everyone to take whatever they wanted.
It was so popular that they did it again, adding beans the next year. Over time, they added onions, fruit trees, lettuce, zucchini, berries, and herbs, all free to the public and maintained by the city.
Andernach is now nicknamed the "edible city." And they're not alone.
Philadelphia has been doing a version of this since 2007. The Philadelphia Orchard Project has helped establish 67 sites across the city with thousands of food-bearing trees.
Baltimore is planting fruit trees on sidewalks. Seattle, Boston, San Francisco, and Asheville all have public urban orchards.
A mature apple tree produces 400-500 pounds of fruit per year. A mature pear tree can produce for 75 years.
Cities pride themselves on their tree cover. We've decided that trees are important, but we haven't fully decided those trees should feed people yet.
Would you support urban fruit trees and vegetables in your city?

I don't get it. It's completely obvious why Mandelson was appointed. Trump is a big grubby grifter and Mandelson is a grubby little grifter. They thought they'd get leverage, have things in common. They just can't say it.
