Please boys... Straight into em. No mucking about. A little revenge for the four-piece last season would go amiss too. #MUFC

Bullish atmosphere inside the stadium. Ten Hag last out and gets a huge cheer and then a high five from Fred the Red. #mufc

Did Bungie accidentally fix Trials? 🤔 It’s clear people will play for loot. Guarantee an adept weapon at 7 wins, no matter how many losses.. and/or an adept weapon for a weekly bounty. Make Freelance permanent. Remove Flawless Pool. Keep cosmetics for Flawless/Lighthouse.

For any upcoming livery designers out there, here’s a pdf on livery design theory from a Racecar Engineering magazine article. It’s from a while ago but is still very relevant, and something I’ve found useful in my career! 🏎 🎨 dropbox.com/s/ym3lw6nd0cfshh…

GEARSHIFTERS is retro-inspired (obviously) and today I'm going full-on retro mode by using a SNES style gamepad. If you want it, I've uploaded the controller config to the Steam community. #retrogaming #Steam
