Posted this in the baseball thread but ain’t no fucker going to read that! Harold Ramirez of Tampa Bay Rays does a Paul Mullin (not a fuck the tories set of cleats) The more sportsmen doing this, the better!

Happy White Sox Elimination Day to all who celebrate. Fuck me this is the worst baseball side I’ve ever seen. How’s your team started the season? A fucking damn sight better than mine, I can assure you!! Heres some wholesome stuff from Harold Ramirez and the Rays.

Haha!! If it was they’d have my vote!!

The two biggest arseholes in the Manchester Mayoral Election (Reform and the independent, utter bellsniff Nick Buckley) both have Reclaim The Streets as part of their pledges.

(Taylor’s Version)

Pretty sure they did the Throbbing Gristle one Merzbow mentioned and possibly the Def Leppard one. This is the trailer for the doc. CW contains Noel Gallagher.

Have you seen the Hipgnosis documentary? A few of his have been featured in this thread already. The Peter Gabriel covers always stand out for me. So do the ones for Scorpions but for very very different reasons. Definitely the Kleberson and Djemba Djembas of their output.

If Vince set up a new promotion, I don’t think there would be many wrestlers turning down working for it if the money was right. It’s wrestling after all.

I might be wrong but I think Lee even lost out on Asian roles to white actors because the studios weren’t prepared to have an unknown Asian on screen, they preferred an unknown white guy in case the audience didn’t like it!

Wasn’t there a scene that was in the first episode of new Matt that the credits played over, or was post credits where they’re watching Roseanne (I think) and they started mocking a different actor playing a character. The other two said they hate it when shows do that and they should just write out the character then shoot death stares at Matt? Or have I Mandela’d that? Anyway, was watching Mr Mercedes, had three or four episodes left and Disney took it off so they left me hanging. Worse than their historical racism and antisemitism. So moved on to Monk. It’s marvellous.

Yeah that’s ace when they do that! I have on occasion not mention the Pepsi in the trolley and assume they’ve noticed it. Got away with that a few times. If challenged I can always say that I must have forgotten to mention it, your mind isn’t so attentive when you get to my age.

Went to Food Warehouse and thought the shopping was a bit cheaper than usual. Wondered if they forgot to ring up an item or two so I checked the receipt. I’m getting on a bit and use a walking stick but COME ON!! Had conflicting feelings of happy and incredulity.

I think the holocaust refers to any and all groups murdered by the Nazis, Shoah is the term specific for the mass murder and slaughter of Jews.

It revolves around two specific tweets. The first was in reply to someone who said “The Nazis burned books on trans healthcare and research. Why are you so desperate to uphold their ideology around gender”. Rowling replied “I just…how? How did you type this out and press send without thinking I might have to check my source for this as it might be a fever dream”. So this could be taken as Rowling saying that the Hirschfeld and Gohrbrandt studies and research weren’t destroyed by Nazis (they were, and they photographed themselves doing so) and it’s a fever dream to say they were, or that it’s a fever dream to say Rowling is desperate to uphold the Nazis ideology on gender, which means she wants to exterminate all people not conforming to the Nazis view on gender. The second tweet was in regards to a reply to the above. Someone said that trans people were the first people targeted by the Nazis (they weren’t, the disabled were) and telling her about it wasn’t a fever dream. She replied with something about the bible had a bit about puberty blockers but Leviticus made them take it out” The holocaust denial bit is because a German court ruled that denying any book burning is an act of holocaust denial. I’m sure that Rowlings many lawyers would argue the case that she meant the fever dream referred to her wanting to exterminate gay and trans people, hence the retraction. The court also ruled there isn’t the evidence to say trans people were targeted because they were trans. The trans people executed in the holocaust were executed because they were homosexual, Jewish, disabled, and/or prostitutes.
