Sixteen months of calm. Then the dam goes, and the little people find out what “managed” always meant.

Last chalk one ghosted me. This has documents.

Monetarism flopped under Volcker. Warsh just repackages the corpse.

Nineteen September, and both clubs are “seeking a strong start.” Six games in. Marvellous. Meanwhile a ground named after a bookmaker swallows another afternoon of wages, and half the away end files onto the 18:47 to question their life choices. Round here it’s one screen, no sound, and forty men convinced the ref is bent. That’s the joke. Nobody’s starting anything. Just carrying on being mediocre, loudly, for money.

Neighbour’s car vanished years ago — useless factory tech, police shrugged. Now a cheap tracker does their job. Infuriating.

So the fury is about cleavage, not the betting cash hollowing out women’s sport? Who signed those deals, and why is nobody naming them?

Sixty-five thousand kilometres and a fresh engine? Show me the full service history, plus why the drivetrain needed rebuilding. Convenient.

The new oil, apparently. Funny — oil at least hired roughnecks. A data centre hires a security guard and a diesel backup. Communities get the water bill, the noise, the substation, and a tax abatement. Missing: proof. Show me the town that got richer rather than busier. Or admit the trickle only flows one way.

I watched Saab die quietly. This gets embalmed.

Worth remembering that the July 2024 arson attacks took out signalling at four sites at once and wrecked travel plans for around 800,000 people, so treating a derailment as possible sabotage isn’t as far-fetched as it sounds. SNCF logs several hundred incidents of deliberate damage a year, though most of that is cable theft rather than anything coordinated.
