@villareport@DiMarzio I appreciate he would not do this, but…. Why not reduce your salary on a new contract at Villa. He is guaranteed to be 1st choice, in a team and club that is evolving. The manager would build the team around his strengths to a degree, which has proven successful.
What if spirituality isn't about believing in God?
What if it's simply about feeling connected to life, to people, to nature, and to the present moment.
Maybe that's where it all begins.
Sikh community leaders tell @LisaatSky they raised concerns about Vickrum Digwa before he went on to kill Henry Nowak, but believe police didn't take warnings seriously enough. Hampshire police said they followed up all available lines of enquiry at the time of the complaint.
🚨 Thierry Henry reacts to footage of Kylian Mbappe not shaking N'Golo Kante's hand:
“I saw recent footage of Mbappé not shaking Kanté’s hand... and for me, that's where you draw the line.
Your reputation at club level has already taken a hit over the last year with all the noise, the headlines and the way certain situations have unfolded. But now you're creating tension with probably the most respected and likeable footballer of this generation?
Nobody has a bad word to say about N'Golo Kanté. He is humble, he works hard, he respects everyone and he lets his football do the talking. If you're falling out with players like that, people start asking serious questions.
Great players are remembered for trophies. Legends are remembered for how they treat people. Mbappé needs to be very careful because right now he's damaging the second part of that equation.”
The Sikh community has made an enormous contribution to Britain.
Sikh soldiers fought alongside us in war. Sikh families have helped build businesses, communities and public services across our country.
One evil individual is responsible for his own actions. He does not represent millions of decent, peaceful Sikhs.
We can seek justice for victims while refusing to judge or define an entire community by the crimes of one person and his family. 🇬🇧

@KapilGuptaMD Thank you. I’ll be honest, it’s very difficult not to fall into prescriptions with your reply. I at least find myself catching this intellectually.
AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO PATRIOTS AND TO MEMBERS OF THE SIKH COMMUNITY
One disgusting murdering anti-white scumbag and his family who happen to be Sikh, do not represent the whole Sikh community.
Vickrum Digwa did not act as his religion tells him to act, neither did his family.
#HenryNowak #Sikh #Patriots
Barely a month ago this man was imprisoned for the violent rape of a Sikh woman believing that she was a Muslim. No Douglas Murray articles in the Spectator, no Baroness Fox speech in the Lords. No riots. Two tier? Too right https://t.co/8wABWe3bww
Remember how a White man raped and assaulted a Sikh woman because of her religion , have you seen Elon musk Rt the same , Twitter algo picking this up ??
Why are the Sikh community apologising for a murderer? He didn’t murder in the name of any religion. He murdered because he’s a violent killer. And his family helped him try to cover it up. This isn’t on the Sikh community, this is on one family and several failed police actions.
@george__mack I love this!
The slippery element is the attachment to the outcome. If the mind’s conditioning plays a role, attention can easily be on the outcome instead of the quality.
Nice that have found your own way to navigate this.
🙌🤝✌️
Lesson on power laws: My essay on High Agency is getting ~200,000 monthly readers, mainly from group chats, 12 months later.
It's outperformed everything I've posted in the last 10 years *combined* by 100x.
I think there's two ways to create content right now:
1. The slop zone - Increase quantity of posts. Post 10-20x per day. Churn out clip farms. Win the war of throwing as much shit at the algorithm. People don't remember what you post, but they remember that you post.
2. The golden hippos on unicycles zone - Increase quality of posts. Post something awesome 1-4x per year. Whilst everyone is speeding up, slow down, and spend 100x more time on the quality. Focus on making something people remember and share one year later.
The slop zone is entering the Red Queen moment. You have to post more to reach the same people. It will soon go from 10-20 posts per day, to 40-50 posts per day, to 400-500 posts per day, to maintain the same impressions. Who has the biggest army of fifteen year olds, using an army of AI agents, to chop up the most sensationalist clips will win.
The slop arms race means the golden hippos on unicycles have an advantage, because people are craving content that wasn't made in a day more than ever. It took seven months to write high agency, and I didn't post once the entire time.
In an age of online dementia, where people can't remember one post from hours of scrolling from yesterday, the best filter to ask is: What can I make that people will still remember one year from now?
