Hilarious that @wolves (three wins in 38 games) are dishing out “player of the year” awards. How about a prize for mugged off fans of the year? Fosun out.

Lots of English football fans contemplating league titles, promotion, avoiding the drop, Europe, cup runs. Wolves fans have absolutely nothing to feel happy or optimistic about. Thanks, Fosun, for running my club into the ground.

My latest. The Iran war is widening disparities between the haves and have nots. Great if you are a trader in Tokyo sipping on Sanaenomics cocktails, not great if you are jeepney driver in Manila struggling to pay for your vehicle’s fuel. asia.nikkei.com/spotlight/bi…

During the recent long break there were times when I allowed myself to think something extraordinary was about to happen. Seven matches left, most of them against struggling teams. And then they go and do this.

Would the last #Wolves player to leave Molineux just quickly pay my DAZN subscription so I can get up at 3 a.m. to watch them struggle in the Championship next season?

[続き]中でもベースの後藤次利は当時､英国ではそれほど浸透していなかったチョッパー奏法を披露...観客は圧倒されたとか｡ツアーの中盤ではミカ･バンドに対する観客の反応は凄まじく､主役のロキシー･ミュージックを喰ってしまうかのような勢いがあったという｡日本からやってきた黒船､恐るべし...

Why have oysters in the Hiroshima region died in such huge numbers this season? And could it happen again? theguardian.com/environment/…

The israeli occupation just brutally murdered our colleagues @ftounifatima and @cheib1970 from Al Mayadeen and Al Manar.
They were assassinated by a drone while in a moving press vehicle.

これもいつも書くけれど、日本以外の国では全く役に立たないマイナー言語の日本語を習得してくれて働いてるコンビニの外国人労働者はみんな超優秀ですよ。同じことを外国で出来る日本人は10人に1人もいないことは容易に想像できるはず。
