Tired, old, a boring tit (Eric). Still a saluter of magpies. LUFC. Anarchist, anti-colonialist sort.

Professional obsessions: building / construction safety and sustainability with the occasional soupçon of architectural theory & history
Anyway, Wordle deleted my win streak randomly and if that’s not proof of Trump’s corruption, I’m not sure what is.

A bit of me is sort of hoping for 8-1 on Saturday, so at least I can walk out the ground doing Golden Gordon #LUFC

Trying to avoid the budget shit show but my immediate observation would be that the implementation and collection cost for EV pay per mile is going to about 5 times what the charges might raise.

Swerve me? The path to my fixed purpose is laid with iron rails, whereon my soul is grooved to run.

There isn’t even a word for how insecure you would need to be to spunk billions on an AI bullshit machine so it turns out steamers like this:

Weirdly thrilled to leave the house and feel cold, for the first time this year.

When estate agents photoshop blue skies onto the pics of houses they’re selling, surely that counts as misrepresentation of some sort?

He was a pure manipulator; his brain, if he had ever had one, must have early oozed along into the muscles of his fingers.

Yeah but yeah but incredibly efficient construction industry why can’t we build like the Chinese etc

Exchanging messages with eldest this morning about her trying to establish her first clear memory which isn’t supported / triggered by photos. She’s at 6 so far. Noted I can remember my dad hitting me when I was 3 or 4. Conclusion: if you want your children to have early memories, beat them.

On the bright side knocking out mitres this good against an existing glass screen whilst watching us go down to an abject loss to Forest has to be worth something, right? Right?! #lufc

Curious - they’d clearly just had a delivery of unfashionable middle class apres-ski wear on site today

This evening’s cocktail of choice is a Perfect Manhattan, with sincere apologies for the lack of a coupe and a cherry. Not immediately convinced but perhaps it’s a grower.

Anyway lads, after attending that carcrash yesterday and accepting personal responsibility, my next away is Man City.

On the positive side, it’s hard to see how I could make things worse than they would otherwise be #lufc

Brighton just introduced a player as no 49 and he’s wearing 58. If we don’t get 12 points for that there’s something very wrong. #lufc

I mean I know you should assume most FBook news commenters are idiots, but today’s juxtaposition of,

‘Cross the channel in a boat, they’re ALL rapist paedos’

with

‘Prince Andrew? What happened to a fair trial and innocent until proven guilty’

is a bit much.

Prince Edward will be more than happy to have Ten Thousand Men.

Allegedly.
Following Prince Andrew’s titles being removed, Prince Edward becomes the Duke Of York. Basically, it all shifts up one. For instance, I’m now my next door neighbour, Pauline Cathcart.
