Blue Islands is the most incompetent airline I’ve flown with. My family’ve been stuck since 9am in Jersey on a rolling delay. Zero help, fictitious departure times, no staff in JER + their contact centre not reachable. Other flights on time, and arrival airport operating normally

As of yesterday I’m no longer selling any signed prints to people based in EU countries as I can’t afford to pay for a ‘responsible economic operator’ so can’t meet the new requirements. Before Brexit the EU was 50% of my sales.

An illustration of idiocy Get manager out (because inconsistency) Organise protest against owners Board sack manager Fans happy they can protest outside club shop Board appoint new manager These same fans dont get behind appointment At first sign of adversity, shit the bed and repeat above

One ticket available for Tottenham vs. Chelsea tomorrow at 4.30pm. Block 105, West Lower. Face value £109. A great performance probably guaranteed (not from Spurs though). #coys

NEW: Welsh Tory leader Andrew RT Davies resigns having only narrowly survived a confidence vote of his parliamentary colleagues. Said his position had become untenable. He had been Conservative leader in the Senedd for 13 years.

I work for a local paper, and writing court reports from the daily magistrates lists is so tedious, I made an AI bot to do them. Checked one recently and found ChatGPT has just been making them up. 100s of potentially libelous fake stories going back months and nobody's noticed.

#Spurs Bluesky! I am curating a user list of the top voices out there as I haven't been able to find a complete one on here yet. Follow/pin it, and if you're a fan who regularly posts or a podcast, journalist, etc, reply below and I'll add you. #ttid #thfc #coys

Chicca-King would have been a legendary surname. #coys

Ian King@twoht.bsky.social

I've had this actual conversation, and my response was "it's precisely none of my business what surname you take". We didn't discuss double-barrelling because of "Chicca-King" would have been too close to the name of the fried chicken place opposite the Spurs ground.

And this is why we can’t have nice things.

Tottenham Hotspur@tottenhamhotspur.com

We can confirm that Guglielmo Vicario has today undergone surgery for a fracture of his right ankle. Guglielmo will be assessed by our medical staff to determine when he can return to training. We're all behind you, Vic 🤍

The relentless harping from Neville and Carragher about how City are in decline, how poor Gvardiol and Stones have been, how wasteful Haaland is. Completely ignores how well Spurs have played on the evening so far across the park. How about a bit of balance?

In case you missed it: Bluesky runs on-prem. They migrated off of AWS months back. So yeah, they DO need to put orders in for servers! (Good luck to the dev team!) More on their architecture: newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/bluesky

To be clear, we do have plans for scaling, we just kinda expected more than a couple days notice before getting blasted with a million new users a day. The team is rapidly deploying fixes and new software to adapt. More servers in the mail.
