ESPN facing backlash after host and pundits joke about punching Arteta in the face for his CL semi-final celebrations.
Weird that one of the pundits expressing these ridiculous claims was former-Gunner and failed coach Stewart Robson. Maybe he's jealous that Mikel is doing a better job than he ever could.
Overall though, it's hard to feel too outraged, seeing as how it's ESPN. They are like the dollar store of football networks.

Yeah, I can’t help but get annoyed at it though.
I’m getting fucking sick of unearned hatred. Not just with our club but nationally, politically at home and worldwide. It’s fucking tiring and shit like this just feeds into it for me.
Attacks from people who used to play for other clubs, media etc…it on a broader scale too with attacks on ironically the same groups and races we are inclusive as a club on. People supporting the Donald Trump of football clubs and having the hide to say ‘4 t3h g00d of f000tbALL
Sorry, I know, it shouldn’t get to me but it is. We need a win tonight.

It's 100% symptoms of the same disease. So many people are angry all the time. It creeps into everything.

I think you might be right in a lot of instances though a lot of it is engineered by grubs like Murdoch.
I’m just tired of attacks from shitcunts who stand for shit or rubbish those who stand for something good.

Absolutely it's engineered. Attention is valuable and ragebait sells. I agree it's exhausting because it feels like everywhere you look, the people that you would need to stand with to confront these powers are eating it up.
Premiere League fans should be nonstop demanding the 115 charges stick and for information about just how much City has cheated but it just seems way too easy to whip people up about Arsenal's corners instead.

It’s not just exhausting me with football though, it’s a lot worse when quality of life and living standards are on the line. The political attacks on anyone doing or standing for a decent thing are insane.

Surely that's gotta be against broadcasting regulations.

Finally found time to watch the Mario Galaxy movie
I fully knew it reviewed horribly and was gonna be incredibly sloppy and like... yeah it was somehow even more TikTok reels slop vibes than I expected. But it was fun to see all the references. And the music was very good. I'd comment on the script, but I'm not convinced there was one.
