    President Trump

    if Ulbricht has some bitcoins that the government didn't manage to confiscate (and he remembers the passwords) he's going to be fucking rich now

    Middle East Conflict

    I wouldn't use the phrase "big housing", but it shouldn't be controversial to state that successive US governments generally do everything they can to pump up the housing market. So yeh - both of those two lobbies are powerful and big-spending. AIPAC might spend less than some other big causes...

    Middle East Conflict

    I take the point, but by the same token, do you understand October 7th itself, given all the decades of Israeli violence and oppression? Edit: I see you've answered similar questions from a couple of others.

    Do any Bluemooners live without a car

    Public transport in Berlin is quite good, and also cheap, so I've never once considered owning one since I've been here (six years.) Having access to a hire car or one of those car-sharing apps is good though, I've had to use them plenty of times for e.g. carting stuff back from Ikea or the...

    Rapist cannot be deported because he's bisexual

    The Sun write up (which we can safely assume isn't comprehensive) doesn't say he has lived in the UK mostly as a heterosexual, it says that he has only had relationships with women. That's not the same thing.

    How do we resolve the Brexit mess?

    Trivial example in the grand scheme of things, but my wife accidentally left her glasses at my dad's house when we visited (Manchester) over Christmas. He sent them back to her in the post and she had to pay import tax, plus a handling fee, to collect them from the post office.

    'Kyle Walker’s talents deserved so much more than his crude tabloid caricature' Good article on him in the Guardian. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/jan/13/kyle-walker-talents-deserved-more-than-tabloid-caricature-manchester-city

    Aston Villa (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

    Palmer scored 22 goals and got 11 assists in the PL in a team that finished 6th. He looked like a top premier league player the minute he signed for Chelsea, because that's what he already was when Pep let him go. I don't especially think it's the reason we're so shit at the moment (though I...

    If the rot continues what happens ?

    To be fair, to my mind "aware of" implies knowledge of something specific. If he's talking about a "potentially negative outcome" I would have said something like "worried about the potentially negative..." Anyway, my opinion is that while I think it's unlikely the charges are the reason for...

    United (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

    We didn't get Rice, and with the exception of Haaland only Gvardiol has offered anything of use so far.

    United (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

    I never really understand what he's on about, his English is still too ropey in my opinion

    "Ali Benarbia can see you when you can't even see yourself." - Paulo Wanchope, apparently. Don't know if that's a real quote but I mentioned it in my wedding speech. (It made sense in context).

    US Politics Thread

    I think the risk lies in what those around him will do. Trump doesn't have to do any work to sign the executive orders that Stephen Miller or whoever puts in front of him. That's my concern.

    The Title Race - 2024/25

    I'm not really predicting a points total so much as giving an estimate of the top end of what's possible for us and the bottom end of what's likely for them. As I said, for them to flop that much while we also had an unprecedented run is just not happening. And Arsenal are not much more in it...

    The Title Race - 2024/25

    Since the Covid seasons the winning points total has been between 89 and 93. Liverpool look like they're heading for the top end of that, if not exceeding it (their current points-per-game would see them end up with 99 points.) But let's say for the sake of argument that Liverpool actually end...

    Ken Barnes loses 67 year old record

    Middle East Conflict

    Next time the Europeans/Americans try and tell say, Congo, not to sell coltan to Russia because of its human rights violations, they will be absolutely within their rights to tell them to F off. Biden and friends, destroying the threadbare remains of international law, for the sake of a crook...
