Stive Pesley

The scene in the coffee shop where they're arguing about ball-tickling was brilliant. 

I only watched episode one and then moved on to CYE as our comedy, so I will go back to that once CYE ends

Agree about Ted Lasso. We made it into season 3, but it had gone off a cliff way before we got out. The first season was good, but you just cannot maintain the idea. Him getting the lingo wrong 3 years into the job was preposterous. 

Gave up on Ted Lasso part way through Season 2. It just got really, really awful.
Started watching Loudermilk on Netflix last night instead. A comedy about a misanthropic ex-alcoholic trying to counsel others. Looks OK so far, but we shall see

Your first season following the Rams is it?

That's a tough read, but all the best to you and thanks for sharing
All I can really say is that I became a father at 25 (relationship didn't work out) and then for a second time with Mrs Pesley when I was 40, so get the "too old" thoughts out of your head. 42 is not an unusual age to have kids these days. It's been absolutely fine. A bit more tiring sure, but just as rewarding, if not more so as I was in a much better place the second time around
Good luck whatever the future brings

I think they would do very well to hoover it all up 
70% of coins haven't moved in a year
and 50% havent in since the last bull run.
there are a lot of long term holders that believe it will go to 1million who wont sell just cos it gets to 100k, 200k etc etc.
i agree that blackrock are .. well theyre blackrock and your right they are a concern but if they keep buying the price is going to keep going up and up.
And remember the amount of coins being minted per day is about to be halved (circa 14 days)  .. which on its own has seen exponential growth years gone by. Nevermind when u have some of the biggest hedgfunds in the world hoovering up as much as they can. 
 
its going to be an interesting ride lol

You aren't seen as a bit of a loon on here, quite the opposite.
 

I'm sure they would be if any kids actually used it, but they don't. 
Weirdly a platform that's mainly full of Nazis, bots and  Nazi bots doesn't appeal to kids 😂

Back to the 1970s where this joke was funny

I think that's what this thread and the spacex threads are about. But the posts about Facebook/Meta don't go any way to answer that question, do they? They mostly seem to be saying "social media good or bad for humanity", but there's really not going to be much argument that they are collectively bad. The only difference is that the supporters of Musk are claiming X is good for humanity, where everyone else is saying all social media is bad for humanity. 

Most of the active user base will be dead by the time we’re in there!

I watched 30 seconds and he's an utter c***

I suspect it's primary purpose is now to harvest people's data for unspecified use in the meta verse 

No judgement here! Is she selling some? 

So disappointing to see the Work & Pensions Secretary Mel Stride saying that the de-stigmatisation of mental health issues has gone “too far” and that we should just consider it the “normal ups and downs of human life”
I'm pretty sure that most people who have contributed to this thread have had their mental health struggles and found that it's the de-stigmatisation of mental health issues which has allowed them to open up - and that's a brilliant thing. None of us are alone
It disgusts me that we have dinosaurs like this in positions of power who think we should  go back to the days of telling people to "just get over it" 😞

Geez, you mods have powers beyond what I imagined!

I'm guessing he couldn't find the thread entitled "Tedious off-topic whataboutery"
 

I thought that was just boxing

It's the new culture war, pick a side buddy. You are either a free speech hero and on Musk's side, or you lover Zuckers and worship Facebook. THERE ARE NO OTHER OPTIONS.

What does that have to do with Twitter?

I thought the jist of the article from those interviewed was that in retrospect they were taken aback by how genuine he seemed, and how they thought it impossible (at the time) to even consider that he wasn't the real deal
The bit where someone describes him being at the LIV Pro-am golf thing and he was giving Yasir Al-Rumayyan bear hugs and acting like they were the oldest, bestest friends. Without the benefit of hindsight, if you'd witnessed scenes like that - would you have thought "nah he's probably a fraud"?
Taking the fact he nearly destroyed our club out of the equation, you almost have to have a kind of admiration for quite how far he took his fantasist lifestyle and what he got away with. On a par with Anna Sorokin. Would anyone be surprised if they maker a Netflix series out of it?
