Has Ted Lasso finished yet? I have to resubscribe for a month for my wife to binge S3.

I've heard mixed reviews about Ted Lasso, worth a watch?

 

[Dazzler9]

Just watched an hour of a guy unclogging drains and culverts on youtube.

Jesus Eagles. Get better soon.

Still better options than the coronation.

First two seasons are great, third (and last) season hasn't been as good but it seems like it's building to something so hopefully has a big finish

It's ok, yeah worth a look.

I’d rather watch real MLS soccer then a shit American Hollywood take on it tbh

And that’s as a real round ball fan’s perspective

I enjoyed both a fair bit, looking forward to the next season of Welecome to Wrexham

I wonder what happens?

I wonder what happens?

Probably nothing exciting

Sunderland till I die (Netflix) is amazing of you want to watch while hating the team and 80% of the individuals.

TL;DR previous season Sunderland go from Premier League to Championship (2nd level). Doco team bought in to watch the side triumphantly return to the top flight.

Results

Spoiler: Results

They lose the opening friendly 5-0, the captain gets done for DUI after talking about how the teams need to be professional, the bright 18yo star striker refuses to play as does an Ex-England international while collecting massive wages. They get relegated again to level 3.

**** it’s cold

 

[DanWCE]

* it’s cold

One of the camping/cooking YT channels I follow posted up some stuff over the weekend cruising around country Vic and there's plenty of snow. Wasn't expecting that at this time of year. My brother said he was headed that way too but changed the location and camped Grampians instead (not sure that would've been much warmer)

There's some pretty shocking video doing the rounds on Twitter of the Texas mall shooting, including a 5 year old who was killed in it.

Yet some Americans still hold their right to have guns over everything else, just staggering.

“No way to prevent this” etc etc.

I got halfway through the article on it yesterday and just left it. Don't feel like experiencing the emotions for the stories of gun violence in the US when it's just something that's occurring fortnightly and they refuse to budge.

 

[Dazzler9]

Have any of you seen that Jon Stewart interview with a State level Republican congressmen who was stupid enough to debate him on gun laws? Pretty good stuff.

Also it was in Texas. Doubtful that even the relatives of the deceased would be supportive of more gun control.

I'm with you there Bender_. It's depressing to read about or watch it, knowing the same old rhetoric will get spewed out. Only thing we can do over here is never ever go to America.

Apparently a gentleman that was helping out victims in need saw a woman lying in the bushes lying down. When he flipped her over she had her whole face missing.


America is a broken system that will never be fixed. It’s infuriating how ****en ignorant and selfish how most of the republicans are.

" If the 5 year old was carrying a gun then he could have defended himself" is what they would be saying.

The country is totally cooked

Idiotic gun laws are just part of the problem

Thankfully they don't have the strongest military force and economy the world has ever known.

Oh wait...

Got about halfway through that before giving up. The guy should just admit he's got NRA money in his pocket and he doesn't want gun reform instead if making up lies about his stance and how to stop gun violence.

They have a chance at promotion this year (would need results to fall their way) but still for anyone with little idea about Sunderland it is amusing.

Fortnightly? It's their 199th mass shooting this year

It's only the bigger ones which get the headlines, but they are going at more than 1 per day
