I think the best analogue for Rowling and the "I can't stop supporting her" crowd is Morrissey. It's hard to explain to people who weren't there at the time just how important The Smiths were for outsider kids as a source of solace, solidarity and hope. Far more than the HP books in all honesty...

Jordan Peterson critically ill with pneumonia, neuropathy, and sepsis. His daughter Mikhaila claims the illnesses are due to mold exposure, cleaning out a basement, and "spiritual attacks." boingboing.net/2025/10/15/j...

Jordan Peterson critically ill with pneumonia, neuropathy, and sepsis

Jordan Peterson is sick, and suffering from "spiritual attacks" (and surely it's not the drugs, or long COVID, or a meat-only diet, or...)

I don’t have a relevant answer but you’ve given me the opportunity to tell the world AGAIN that Everybody’s Changing by Keane has an all-timer melody even though the song itself is pretty meh

Came here to say the same. Get everything you need and don’t feel any compunction about it. It’s not an advantage to you, it’s a removal of the existing disadvantage that education in our system creates

There are two plausible explanations I can think of: 1, it’s a prelude to the announcement of British ICE in conjunction with Palantir, or 2, she has dropped £200k on Reform with Bet365

The reason Savage could play at the top level but that Molumby will probably move on from here to a smaller team is that he’s just less effective at it. How many times has an opponent lost their composure because of Molumby? It’s rare. Maybe he needs to get some #BANTER lessons from the Archbishop?

It’s that thing that Maldini said, “if I have to make a tackle, I’ve made a mistake”. The tackles look great, but the standing in the right place so the ball has to go square or backwards is far more important.

Romaine Sawyers was a good example of this. Fellows would equally have suffered given time.

Flynn is really interesting to me. He must’ve played over a hundred games for us and he ran himself into the ground every week and never shirked a tackle. He was also reasonably local and that’s normally endearing. But I’ve never seen a Baggies fan say anything positive about him. The vibes were off

Only a loose cannon would buy a bike without pedals. We are all agreed on this.

That’s a really interesting topic but the writing is appalling. My theory is that long distance runners have higher levels of depression than average because people with higher levels of depression than average seek out the mood boosting impact of long distance running. How’s that thesis?

watched the Kneecap movie and it pisses me off how in England you have this naked contempt for education and art and the young while Ireland is having a great cultural moment. all this wank about defending heritage and 'englishness' but hostility to English degrees, every museum under attack, fucked
