It made me chuckle to see the Manic Street Preachers performing You Love Us to a packed, adoring arena, because I remember how no one loved them when they first released it. They were telling us to love them and eventually we went along with it. 😄
Manic Street Preachers were also very good tonight but they play so loudly that at a certain point it just dissolves into noise for me.
I suspect there was a large Welsh contingent there because the audience singalong was some of the sweetest I've ever heard.
Surprisingly emotional to see Suede perform so many of my favourite songs live tonight.
The writing sessions for Coming Up must have been weird for them. "Is it me or does that feel like a hit?" "You said that about the last one. They can't all be hits." "Maybe they can?"
The bout appears to be taking place under the local rules of the French Boxing Federation, who do not require sex screening, and have previously claimed that the sex screening imposed by World Boxing is incompatible with French law.

I had an inkling he might be the fourth actor testing, given that he's one of the very few British male actors Villeneuve has ever cast, but I deleted the tweet saying that because it felt like wishful thinking. I'd be very happy with all those rumoured but he would be peak Bond.
Robert Pattinson has tested for the role of James Bond.

He'll be beating himself up about this when he tries Hawaiian pizza and realises how nice it is. Or smashing another metal rail with his hand.

People are going nuts over this article, because they haven't read it and think from this description that Philippe Jaenada used AI to generate the text. He didn't: he asked AI questions in the course of his investigation and talks in the book about the answers it gave.
France’s most coveted literary prize has been awarded to an author, Philippe Jaenada, who used artificial intelligence to write his book.
Defending his use of AI before the award, Jaenada asked: “Would a film director hide the fact that he uses special effects?”

Or: "Chat GPT … s’est emballé … : « Très belle question, à la fois poétique et physique ! Une jolie dimension symbolique, comme si tu me demandais si le monde ou l’être humain se remettait plus vite de la pluie. » Euh, non, ce n’est vraiment pas ce que je te demande, non."
One day behind after three days is not ideal but I have a lot of work on and we had guests. Excuses, excuses. My Spotify playlist of seven-minute songs is helping – if I write 100 words a song I know I'm on track.

Do you say "Language, Timothy!" when people swear? Just wondering if this is something we are passing down to the next generation.

Breath play when done correctly (and more importantly consensually) is a safe kink that is well liked by many men and women.
Trying to ban it is ridiculous, especially as other countries are unlikely to follow and regulating the internet is almost impossible.
