The idea that “natural = good” falls apart the moment you learn what nature actually is. Arsenic is natural. Botulism is natural. Smallpox was natural. Insulin, vaccines, and clean drinking water are not. Nature doesn’t care if you live. Science does.

Absolute scum.
I believe we now have evidence of FIFA's World Cup ticketing shell game: FIFA is colluding with third-party resale platforms for its own supply management. Look at this SeatGeek map (secondary market!) for Saudi Arabia vs Cape Verde. The circled areas are not random single resale tickets, but large, contiguous blocks of seats: entire rows and swaths in sections 101/102, 112/113, 119/120, 134–137, 139, ... The blue circles appeared weeks ago, then the purple blocks suddenly showed up a day or two ago, and the red blocks seem to have appeared recently too. That's not what ordinary fan or even commercial scalper resale looks like who resell pairs, fours, and scattered seats. Instead, this looks like inventory being dumped in bulk onto secondary markets, at prices below FIFA's official site. Why doesn't FIFA just lower prices on its own site Probably because official price cuts could trigger refund demands, chargebacks, or consumer-protection headaches from fans who already bought at much higher prices. Instead FIFA keeps official prices high, avoids openly admitting the market-clearing price is lower, and moves unsold inventory through third-party resale platforms instead.

Farewell to Mohamed Salah. A faintly ridiculous 193 goals and 93 assists in the Premier League. 286 goal involvements in 327 appearances — a record surpassed only by Alan Shearer (324) and Wayne Rooney (311), both of whom made at least 100 more appearances. The only player to have been named PFA Player of the Year three times. One of English football’s greatest imports and Africa’s greatest exports. A phenomenon #LFC nytimes.com/athletic/7144985…

Twice this week I thought the towel should be thrown in. Last Saturday from Wardley's corner and now tonight by Arne Slot. But thinking about it, I think the towel went in from Slot months ago. Will someone please put him, and us, out of this misery.

Please consider signing this petition as I have done if like me, you are appalled at the amount of sewage tipped into our waterways to the vast financial benefit of others. Why would any country sell control of something as crucial as water? It is lunacy. petition.parliament.uk/petit…

Trying to decide who to vote for today is like trying to decide which toilet to use at Glastonbury.

If Spurs do go down, it’s inevitable that players will be leaving in the summer. But my question is, how much is Udogie in the window?

There’s just no way he should be the manager come the second leg. But he will be. It’s not even about the result. 2-0 away to PSG, there’s been times I’d have backed us to turn that around. I just don’t. And it’s him. Uninspiring, dull, shite.
