Father Brown

I feel like Cruella will stomp off on a hissy fit to Reform anyway regardless of what happens. More than likely she's only just managed to scrape 10 votes together.

Been watching the gymnastics. I need those "trousers with socks at the end" that some of the lads have, they look really comfortable.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they did ready a track for lip sync just in case she was unable to perform it live, but personally that performance sounds live to me. If it’s not live, it’s still very commendable and very convincing.

I’ll be listening to that performance again and again. Absolutely flawless.

Reine. Queen. Wig. Snatched. Slayed. Ate.

Out and about in Paris

More than likely - she's in Paris right now https://www.rtl.fr/culture/medias-people/jeux-olympiques-2024-ce-qu-il-faut-savoir-sur-la-presence-de-celine-dion-a-paris-7900404730

Agree with all three posts above. Perhaps there could be an offshoot of Political Frailty for health updates on world leaders and deputies who don't quite deserve having their own thread yet? (No frequent updates/healthy/young/etc) Not my call either, just throwing an idea out there.

About time.

That reminds me, Nikocado Avocado hasn’t posted a long form video in months, and a Short at least two months ago. I hope he’s taking a break from YouTube for his own sake. Edit: he has more channels with more recent uploads. I believe this is his most recent long form video (with a bullshit thumbnail to boot):

On BBC Morning Live right now, looking and speaking alright I think. But I’ve not seen or heard him in years!

I’d like to include the ones on shopping websites that feel like popping up and being annoying when I’m trying to browse. No, I don’t want your help, it’s driving me away from your site if anything!

Jeremy Miles is a shoo-in as his initial leadership opponent, but Gething supporters will want to force another race.

There’s always one

I'm saying 2-1 to Spain AET

Hey, at least we're on the board!

What are the gun laws like in PA?

That's true. A WHS near me has started selling Toys R Us stock as well. Certainly the larger premises with room for a PO will do better.

Carpetright's been on the brink of collapse for years, not surprised here. I think the following will be gone from the High Street by 2034, not including Carpetright: The Works - no idea how they're still open. Mostly children's toys and tat. WHSmith - airports and train station locations will be safe. They've already stopped opening new HS locations. Peacocks or Bonmarche - no idea how they're still open either. Both have been struggling for ages and are now owned by Edinburgh Woollen Mill, who went into admin themselves not too long ago. Game - whatever's left is mostly hidden away in Sports Directs, physical game offerings have nosedived with the rise of digital sales, and it's pretty much just funko pops and plushes. Currys - could well survive online. Outlived rival Comet but nobody's too big to fail. HMV - same as Game. Losing out to the likes of Amazon and streaming services, and physical stock is increasingly becoming Japanese sweets, funko pops, and plushes. Clintons Cards - if they still exist at this point. Superdry - again, who is shopping here? Could well survive as a brand sold in other shops. One of Trespass/Go Outdoors/Millets/Mountain Warehouse - a lot of competition for overpriced outdoor equipment. Go Outdoors most likely to go given that JD (who also owns Millets) put it into admin and bought it back. Monsoon/Accessorize - went into admin not long after Covid restrictions started and was bought out in 2022. Been posting losses for years and could well go again.

Will attend the Men’s singles final at Wimbledon
