Premier League to ban gambling companies from shirt-front sponsorship starting in 2026 -- (link) - znufrii Apr 13, 09:23 2
- They'll still have way too much and way too large of advertising on their jerseys. The worst in sports. -- nm - Krusty Apr 13, 09:25 1
  - It's so strange that it doesn't remotely bother me. I suppose because that's all I've known for them. It's not like they added it. -- nm - Volnelk Apr 13, 09:44
Coachella Saturday and now I've got real conflicts - JD Apr 13, 09:19 [Attachment] 10

  - Them 8-) It's a supergroup -- nm - JD Apr 13, 09:40 1
    - but I've only heard of one of them! -- nm - LMS Apr 13, 09:55
- I got nothing again, and only know Charlie XCX, Sofi Tucker, and The Breeders here. -- nm - JaxSean Apr 13, 09:24 2

NYT names the Pentagon leaker (kid, ya fucked!) -- (link) - hollywood big shot Apr 13, 09:07 10
- as others have noted, the more head-scratching aspect (if true) is how a 21-year old Air National Guard proud boi got access to this super secret stuf -- nm - hollywood big shot Apr 13, 09:43 3
  - I've watched enough Scandal to know that this kid has been set up. -- nm - Volnelk Apr 13, 09:45 1
    - Heh. -- nm - znufrii Apr 13, 09:46
  - Seriously. -- nm - Dark Callisto Apr 13, 09:44
- I scratch my head a little bit at the thought of newspapers reporting the identities of leakers. - ty97 Apr 13, 09:12 5
  - He's not a source. Presumably their sources have okayed them revealing the info. They have to be VERY sure, otherwise they risk libel charges. -- nm - Dark Callisto Apr 13, 09:38
  - I assume he’s already in custody and the Times got the okay from their contacts to do so. - spamlet Apr 13, 09:30
  - he wasn't leaking any of these docs to the press. wasn't a source for any reporter afaict. just his gamer bros who have been spilling their guts -- nm - hollywood big shot Apr 13, 09:19 2

- MUNA, eat/drink, Blink, Blondie (but leave early for) Gorillaz (full set), 2nd half of Chem Bros. Bad Bunny will be - zunkskunk Apr 13, 09:03 3
  - But that is a vote to skip Becky G as well.... -- nm - JD Apr 13, 09:10
  - eat/drink is sound advice but that's the Wet Leg set and I don't think I can post on music topics again here if I completely skip that set -- nm - JD Apr 13, 09:05 1
    - Correct -- nm - Volnelk Apr 13, 09:08
- 💧🦵!!! -- nm - Dano Apr 13, 09:02 1

- They scheduled Gorillaz against Blondie? That's unfair. -- nm - Beryllium Apr 13, 08:52 3
  - As unfair as Idris Elba vs Blink 182? -- nm - Volnelk Apr 13, 08:58 1
    - Kind of the same as in both cases, the conflict is two different types of music -- nm - JD Apr 13, 09:02
  - Technically the sets are back to back but it's about 5-10 min walk between the locations -- nm - JD Apr 13, 08:56
- Muna is great (wtf are you doing putting on Chemical Brothers at noon outdoors?! they should be headlining Sahara tent) -- (link*) - hollywood big shot Apr 13, 08:51 [youtube] 3
  - Uh...that's 950 PM, it'll be plenty dark. Putting them on the Outdoor Stage means that music fans like me won't be crowded out by all the EDM bros - JD Apr 13, 08:55 2
    - who lists things chronologically from bottom to top?! -- nm - hollywood big shot Apr 13, 08:56 1

That guy selling the beer feels like a parody of a real human. He'd be a character in a story that was so broad that it'd be considered comic relief. - TWuG Apr 13, 08:37
