Knowledge is knowing that your vote might be the one that decides an election Wisdom is knowing nothing major will change with either candidate All roads lead to the same conclusion ๐Ÿ’ฐ ๐Ÿ–จ ๐Ÿ–จ ๐Ÿ–จ
This is why people who say their votes don't matter...need to pay attention and actually vote!

Some score. But Gowna management will be furious. Absolutely horrendous marking at a crucial point in the game

UK fiscal dominance check: Deficit still ~4.2% of GDP, debt ~95%. Private lending growth modest. Rate hikes curb lending (disinflationary) but lift debt interest costs -> bigger deficits (inflationary offset). Monetary policy loses potency when fiscal flows dominate.
Worth remembering re the BoE move, that it's mostly about oil/energy costs, and the last two days have seen those change rapidly. Note too though that it highlights UK's ridiculous energy fragility - your mortgage is rising because our MPs refuse to prioritise energy security.

Some stats are useful but this is why you always need the full context. It's also why stats alone won't show you why VVD is the best CB of all time. So many fires prevented over the years when they were still sizzling embers.
One of the problem with stats is that these sort of action, which show an incredible attacking pattern and a very higher chance of scoring, are not reflected in the numbers. Ball behind the defensive line and both Arsenal players are in front of the defense. Arsenal does this consistently. But VVD gets to the ball first so no chance created, no shot, no xG. Yet the danger created here is of incredible value.

Really sad news. Ciara embodied the best of us. Fuck cancer!
Ciara Mageean died this morning. A light has gone out in the world. Authentic, talented, decent. Her kindness and wonderful personality was a joy to watch and see. Then came her iconic sporting achievements. When we sat down with Ciara for the GAA Social in July, she received disappointing news the day before. Ciara didnโ€™t want to cancel, so we recorded on the Tuesday. Itโ€™s 90 minutes Oisin & myself will always treasure. She was the best of us. To Thomas, Iโ€™m so sorry. She was mad about you. To the Mageean family, all her great friends and the Portaferry community- what a stunning human being, to call one of your own. This is so unfair. Iโ€™ve never met a person who met Ciara, who didnโ€™t love her. A one off.

In the year of our lord 2026, with free access to infinite information at the touch of a button, people still think the money you deposited in the bank is your property ๐Ÿ˜† This was settled in 1858. You become a creditor of the bank, and the bank becomes your debtor. Opt out
In the developing country of the UK, withdrawing ยฃ2.5k of your own money for a holiday is such a comically, laughably large amount of money that the curtain twitchers in the bank fraud teams just assume youโ€™re money laundering and if you donโ€™t itemise everything you intend to spend that money on, they might just decide not to give you it. Your own money.

2 things here - 1. I'd love for Carra to get sued and lose. He's a prick 2. This is hands down the most embarrassing thing a prem club has ever done. Worse than West Ham charging parents ยฃ700 for their kid to be a mascot or Liverpool trying to trademark the word 'Liverpool' ๐Ÿ˜†
Aston Villa will initiate legal action against Jamie Carragher for his unacceptable insults about the Club and its fans. Aston Villa will not allow anyone to stop our ascension in English and European football. Nassef Sawiris, Chairman

People that treat political leanings/parties like sports teams are the absolute type of person those same entities crave. The useful idiot. The pendulum swings from right to left, left to right.....all the while the main issue making everyone's lives harder goes unnoticed.

A lot of people will be watching that Bayern/Arsenal game tonight and coming to the realisation that Arsenal's prem games look like they do due to their opposition and how they set up. Well, the above average IQ one's anyway.

The people that made the great BioWare games all left years ago They replaced them with less talented people that put their political beliefs and pushing social messages above their actual purpose - making good games. They alienated their core audience and the market responded
