The "Do I look happy?" patter is dreadful.

I watched Drive My Car over the weekend. It's good. Very good. But it stumbles a bit in the third act. An enjoyable way to spend 3 hours of an evening though - I sat back and just lost myself in the film.
Two of the better films I've seen in the cinema over the past few years have been based on Murakami short stories (this and "Burning"). Food for thought, certainly. Or more likely a coincidence.

Daft little ground.

It's amazing that Susan Michie is orchestrating a communist revolution through facemasks and social distancing when Fidel Castro had to go through five years of armed struggle.

These days, if you're a pub, you'll be arrested and thrown in jail.

The "athleisure" trend has been a thing for the past few years. I think that probably explains young men wearing expensive grey joggers when they're out, rather than a lack of strong male role models.

THE MAGIC OF THE CUP.
Away to Livingston.

Ah, I see. Perth Saintees. Glasgow Saints.

Granny Danger sided with the racists and the bigots when he voted for Farage's Brexit.

Any link between the orange clothing and another Dutchman is purely coincidental.

Did Tam "Thomas" Courts have anything to say about the incident?

I'm wary that the coffee aroma in Velocity might be overwhelmed by sweaty cyclists, but as the owner of a brand new and wonderful bean to cup machine, what do you think of the Inverness Coffee Roasting Company on Chapel Street?
I've not bought beans from them but they've got some good stuff. The Yirgacheffe is my go to one, plus whatever their monthly special is.

+1 for Cup & Cone. I think they use the Roasting Company coffee.

What better way to commemorate Remembrance Weekend at Ibrox than to dig two defensive trenches of five men each and sit in hoping for the best.

I can't tell you who I am, but I stayed in the same Inverness hotel as them on Friday night.

Boyce is better than any other non-OF striker in the league.

I have to criticise County for one thing. Clarke's celebration after his goal was also one of the worst things I've ever seen. I honestly felt sexually violated after it.

Cinchtillating stuff.
I've always been a fan of Regan Charles-Cook. He was messed around at wingback for large chunks of last season. Delighted to see him doing well this season.

Rachel Reeves is also a "balancing the books" illiterate

Griffiths has got a John Sutton-esque record against County. He'll likely add to that given County's centre-back pairing of Thing 1 and Thing 2.

The furlough scheme was a good experiment in how massive government spending in an advanced economy doesn't lead to the end of days (mind the hot takes about Weimar hyperinflation in this thread? lmao).
But instead of focusing on investing in the health service (and the wider social services more generally) it's back to conversations about balancing books and paying off debts.
And folk just let them change the conversation. The pandemic has exacerbated a lot of problems brought about from austerity. But instead of driving change, nobody seems to be too bothered. Culture wars over masks are apparently a better thing to be outraged over.
