You can't blame Ed Sheeran for caving in to American stadium owners I suppose. I mean, take these guys in the 60s, they refused to play to racially-segregated audiences in stadiums in the southern states of the USA and who remembers them now?
The Beatles banned segregated audiences, contract shows

I’m reminded of that zinger in Viz letters
“If Max Clifford is so good at PR why does everyone think he’s a cunt?”
Similarly, if Jim Ratcliffe is so rich and successful, why does he always seem like a begging fucking tramp?

So, seanadvoter.ie is where NUI (UCD, UCG, Maynooth University, and some place where Boole taught for a while) graduates need to go to re-register to vote in Seanad elections in Ireland. (Oh yeah, and TCD grads, but enough about them)

The Muppets ARE the premise! Get a celeb to sing a song, fall off a ladder, kiss Miss Piggy, and that’s your format. Do that 12 times. You’re welcome
There are currently no active conversations for a full ‘MUPPET SHOW’ series revival.
Disney, The Muppets Studio and Point Grey Pictures have had difficulties with deciding on a premise for the series that they can all agree on.

As of Cabinet yesterday, one now needs the ability to communicate in order to be considered a citizen.
Yet in the first three months of 2026, not a single child in ten counties was given a plan on how the State would deliver them with speech and language therapy.

It’s corruption on steroids in plain sight. He doesn’t even try to hide that he’s looting US and cashing in on insider trading.
He’s the most corrupt president in American history.

This is the Mr Beast/James Patterson collab i want to see...
“Teams will race to navigate three of the planet’s most unforgiving landscapes — the jungle, the desert, and the Arctic — using Gemini to help them identify dangers, survive brutal weather changes, and stay one step ahead.”
Google is sending MrBeast into the wilderness, armed with AI
MrBeast’s videos are about to feature a lot more Gemini.
