#tb “Show the consumer-viewers some #aigenerated old skin…” “Life’s good… in adverts…” “I… in disbelief… I can’t believe they think I’d be able to afford to live here…” 😵‍💫 “Your life lived is farther back than it appears in the rear view mirror…” #dadlife 🥹 “Next ‘Retaining the Neighbourhood Character Committee’ meeting will be held at my house—park your rides at the back, no renter-peasants allowed.” It appears that lower-half-of-the-body attire of @maxrushden and @barry_glendenning sports more prominently on the video version of the @guardian_footballweekly #worldcup2026⚽️ podcast than the audio version—not to be missed…!!! If you’re a #worldcup2026⚽️ football fan who prefers a more laid back locals vibe (Exhibit A)—as opposed to massive huge-crowd Fan Zones, such as those around BC Place, where throngs of police officers sternly watch your every move (Exhibit B)—the Canada Soccer House @theshipyards @theshipyardscnv on the spectacular North Vancouver waterfront is the place to be…!!! ☺️☺️☺️ “Getting into the (not-licensed) spirit of the game…” 🧐
