One more sleep until my debut #SLSA2023 paper on looking at the Northern Irish politicians' discourse when it comes to criticisms of their sex purchase laws.

Sports: World Cup and NFL

Politics aside, this opening game of #worldcup2022 started okay but has been rather dull, especially the second half. I think we'll get a lot of dull games given the amount of minnows here.

That said, it'll probably not be as boring as watching the #DenverBroncos play later on in the #NFL

So over there on the bird, they're paying for blue ticks then being dished out free "official" badges and then taking them away again.

It's beginning to look like some kind of big Ponzi scheme isn't it?
