Monty Python couldn't have done it better. Who will win this UK by election, Count Bin Face or Nigel Farage? Both are clowns, but one is honest about it.

Obsidian possible closing?
From the internet which of course makes it true! Joking aside, no idea how reliable Bloomberg is as a source for this guy I tried to make the url link start at the Obsidian part

Obsidian possible closing?
You answered your own question (possibly unintentionally) From your link: UPDATE: In a twist to Dring’s report, Jason Schreier is now reporting that Obsidian is NOT one of the at-risk studios at Xbox. “Despite a report this morning, I can confirm that Obsidian is not in negotiations to avoid shutting down. Plenty of details are still up in the air surrounding the layoffs (picture will be clear on Monday) but Xbox is keeping Obsidian, according to people familiar with the situation.”

How many actual wars (not proxy wars) has the Soviet Union waged since WWII? Only Afghanistan springs to mind 🤔

Anime and Manga - New Season
While waiting impatiently for the end of 2027 (Frieren season 3), I passed a bit of time watching more of Konasuba. Got to end of season 2 and began on season 3. Its just awesome 😂 Humour going so low you get a sore back trying to keep up. Love it! (I havene't watched the movies) Stumbled upon another series by accident (the thumbnail caught my eye). Dorohedoro. Interesting post apocalyptic setting. No idea yet if its good or not (only watched first episode of season 1)

I don’t think Iranian nukes has Washington written on them (unlike North Koreas). More likely a counter measure to Israeli nukes Edit: of course a few may deviate off course and “accidentally” hit Riyadh

My interest in English football is probably limited to how Liverpool will fare under Iraola. I was a bit of a fan when Klopp managed them because their games were always interesting whether winning or losing 😝 Edit under Slot they went from heavy metal football to snooze ball and I lost interest 😞

@BruceVC there is an expectation associated with English teams. Rule of thumb is England invents a sport and a few years later they suck at it. Tennis, badminton, football, rugby, cricket etc Possibly they are a world leader I’m polo but I wouldn’t bet om it 🤔

The All Things Political Topic
I tried for a while, but couldn't find any trustworthy link that wasn't paywalled around the subject, but apparently those many billions of dollars pledged and/or donated to Trumps "peace board" initiative to help rebuilding Gaza hasn't seen a single dollar spent. Not only that, but they are not on any account subject to transparancy nor accountability. This includes 10 billion dollars from the US government. All sent to Trumps personal JP Morgan account. Sounds like the Scott Morrison government, just on a more ambitious scale. ...still looking for usable links...
