NGL this stuff genuinely makes it feel pointless turning up to watch. It’s not enough to try to beat the best team the league might have seen (cough, 113 charges) you’re also expected to overcome these calls and gaslit into being told wild decisions are actually fine. I can’t man

Oh boy, are we ever broke. How broke are we, you ask? We're so broke, that the only new furniture that the school could afford to purchase was for my office.

Ben White whacking the ball at John McGinn was such a satisfying moment. Referee was refusing to referee the game so the players did it themselves, I love that we can do that now.

Kicking off year 30 in education with PD day. Only three presentations today. I remember when I was 25 saying that if I’m still doing this stuff when I’m 30, something has gone wrong…..

Occasionally, just when I think the world cannot get any more fucking ridiculous, I see something like this and realise just how wrong I was.
