Polls have closed in the first of this year's five German state elections, in prosperous Baden-WΓΌrttemberg. It's looking like a remarkable win-from-behind by the Greens under @oezdemir.de. Full results over the course of the evening.

Fuzzy memories and hard facts: An SC accuser's claims against Epstein, Trump examined An alleged victim of Jeffrey Epstein gave FBI agents true accounts of her time growing up in SC. Claims she made about Donald Trump remain unsubstantiated.

Then do something about it by *at least* joining other social media apps and giving them prority. You're not going to get those people to change by writing a stern letter.

We'll see how the new regulations play out over the next few months, but I thought that was a decent GP. Ferrari seem competitive when they're not ballsing things up. If it's going to be 'like playing Chess' then at least the drivers are making more of the calls themselves instead of the pitlane.

In Formula 1, Mercedes has a history of dominating at the start of a new regulation cycle.

But this time, rival teams fear the season is already over.

Sure seems like Mercedes were impatient to let the cat 'out the back, were sloppy operationally & decided to do it in Q2 rather than wait for Q3. But like the Hybrid era what's going to win them races in the short-term is reliability just as much as performance, while others fix their gremlins.

This game is why Wharton shouldn't be seen as a consolation prize if Anderson goes elsewhere. He may not be a bruising DM but he's dynamite with the ball at his feet, and good enough defensively. Him and Kobbie as #8's in a 4-3-3 would be the perfect combo.

You can't be bummed at not chasing 254 but that was a hell of an effort from England and Bethell. Three catches (or would-be catches) were the difference and that'll be Brook's cross to bear. We need to find some new fast bowling talent to match our batting line-up.

Hot on the heels of Harry Brook, from nowhere, Bethell becomes just the fourth English man to score international hundreds in all three formats. And at 22 by far the youngest.

Again, Farage, Badenoch and their fellow travellers on X are wildly out of touch with the public on Iran.

Even the majority of Reform supporters oppose their position.

Aston Martin fucking up so badly that they managed to make a car that could give you permanent nerve damage is something that I wasn’t expecting but somehow didn’t make my jaw drop

Carrick (rightly) went for it with his subs but something like that could always happen as a result. Malacia shouldn't even still be at the club to bring on as a sub. It's obvious we can't handle multiple games a week but if we beat Villa next-next week we'll be fine for the top 5.

If nothing else we're well ahead in xHeadLoss. Of all the (three) red cards Newcastle could've got in that half, that's the one that was punished? It's a good job we got that equaliser before HT 'cause there's no way we'll have eleven dudes come FT now the referee is public enemy #1 in Newcastle.

In July, Congress passed legislation that awarded $625 million in funding to the 11 U.S. host cities to pay for items such as security and FIFA fan fests.

With fewer than 100 days until the tournament starts, the money hasn't arrived, and the host cities are starting to worry

According to an investigation by a Swedish newspaper, Facebook keeps recordings of what some users of its "smart" glasses see, and those recordings are made available to human reviewers, who are seeing very private moments that users almost certainly don't think Facebook is recording and sharing.

I know many complained about our play in the first half but that's just the meta of the Premier League these days. Teams can't/don't play at 100mph for 90mins. We were always going to have the advantage in the second half if we didn't panic in the first.
