🚨 Senne Lammens on why he reported back to Carrington early:
“The club told me to switch off a bit after the World Cup. I lasted about 4 days., I rang the manager and asked if I could come back early. He laughed and said, ‘Senne… I know you’re hurting after the World Cup, but football will still be here. Go and clear your head.’
I tried. Three dayss later I called him again. He just sighed. ‘Senne… that’s not how holidays work. You’re either desperate to train… or desperate to annoy me.’ I said, ‘Hopefully both.’
He started laughing.
‘Fine… come in on Friday before you call me again tomorrow.’ That’s how my holiday ended before the expected date.”

This year we're hearing from more and more writers how they think Ai wrote their notes (from PAID services, no less).
And some services are promoting their own Ai notes (??).
To us...
While Ai might be good at summarizing a document, because it's dealing in facts to some extent, it doesn't understand--nor will ever understand, probably--what constitutes a good script (or book, or whatever). For a hundred reasons.
You might have seen it before from certain platforms, as if to prove Ai is spot-on: "We ran Weapons through Ai and it got a 7/10!" Cool, that movie is a 10/10, so what's the point? Trying to find a shortcut where a shortcut isn't necessary, so they can sell you some bogus software or subscription...?
Anyway. Just hire great readers. They're hard to find, but they're out there, we swear. We've seen it. We have them--real human readers who act human (most days).

I would rather we pay the person with 10+ years training £150k+ year and get a fully trained medic than pay 2 physicians associate £60k a year and get a poorly qualified substitute. But me, I’m just the patient at the receiving end. @NHSGlos @NHSEngland #consultant

Nigel Farage has a little rant on TV - takes no questions. Does not address any of the facts in @Gabriel_Pogrund Sunday Times investigation. It's all deflection.
Resigns as an MP to trigger a by-election in Clacton but says he will stand in it again to let the people decide.

Best World Cup ever. Storm delayed games, hydration breaks, fans refused visas, Iranians treated like vermin, referees refused entry, cops kicking off over players taking pictures with kids, Infantino crying it in for Argentina and now a pedo bending the rules. Good job👍

There are 10 million in Greater London. There are 60 Million + in the rest of the UK.
Finally we’re getting politics for the many
