I’m glad the Judge chose to lay bare the disgusting and grotesque nature of Russell Brand’s behaviour as he raped and sexually assaulted women. It leaves no room for any alternative argument. It was utterly grim listening befitting a cold, arrogant man who clearly believed he could do whatever he wanted because of his fame. I hope he and the people around him who enabled his behaviour feel the shame they rightly should. The women brave enough to come forward and grit their teeth through this trial should feel none of that shame and I’m glad the Judge chose to make that clear today too. We need to have a real think about how we pile blame on women - and men - who are abused and assaulted by men like Brand. As the Judge made clear, women have the right to wear what they like, go out, have consensual sex and expect not to be raped. Or, as Brand’s legal team put it, not be subjected to a “momentary total failure to respect consent”. Despicable.
WoSo does this thing of judging entire fanbases by the very worst of what they see - often on fucking TikTok of all places.
Look, can we fucking not?
I just want a nice peaceful trip to Barcelona.
If you are in Madeira, Portugal, or Spain — please read this very carefully.
It is Monday, November 9… and I’m starting to get increasingly concerned about what’s coming on November 11.
Over the past several days I’ve been watching a low pressure system far out in the Atlantic, but I really didn’t want to boldly claim it would be a significant threat to Portugal until I had a solid basis to do so.
This is because model guidance was really struggling to figure out what this storm would do as it crossed the Atlantic.
1. Would it stay weak and fizzle out before hitting Europe and Africa?
2. Would it take a more southerly track and affect the Canary Islands and Morocco?
3. Would it move a little further north and hit Madeira and Morocco more directly?
4. Lastly, would it rapidly intensify and curve north into Portugal?
Somehow, model guidance is trending more and more towards the worst case — and the impressive part is that the AI models were consistently showing this even when most other weather models had backed away.
This teaches me something. AI models may be much more useful than I originally thought for complicated low pressure systems like this. @LusoMeteo did a great job at pointing this out. I’ll definitely be checking these AI models a lot more from now on when analyzing model guidance.
What does this mean for us?
This storm is carrying rich subtropical moisture which will enhance the flood risk across Madeira, Portugal, Spain, and even the Canary Islands and Morocco.
Depending on how strong the low gets, there is a potentially serious threat of damaging wind on the southern end of the low pressure.
Moisture moving with this system will also influence the risk of torrential rain through southern France, northern and central Italy, and the Adriatic Sea through November 12.
In conclusion, I really didn’t want to be the boy who cried wolf with such an unstable forecast… but now there’s an overwhelming amount of signs pointing to this potentially major storm. Please use the remaining time to prepare, spread the word, and as always, be safe…

The President of the United States posted this, and anyone who thinks this is normal needs to give their head a wobble.
These posts will be archived, and historians will look back on them and say wtf.
Always worth reminding that the nastiest and most vitriolic stuff on here rarely comes from matchgoing fans.
The Barca fans we met in Lisbon were class.
As with all fanbases, it's the online lot who are loudest.

🚨 WOW: Pablo Maffeo during the halftime interview in the Valencia vs Real Madrid game:
“I really don’t feel like doing this interview; I think it’s SH*T. This interview has no place here. We’re playing a game.” 😳💥

Os jogadores e a torcida do Rosario Central comemorando o título da liga anual no estádio, porém o boca acabou marcando um gol no último lance e vencendo o título
a diferença da cara de quem chegou a informação e de quem achou que havia sido campeão
EU NUNCA TINHA VISTO ISSO
This feels like a Brazil GP for the pure racers, Verstappen and Hamilton starting from the back on a damp track.
