A UK high street scene, supposedly the 1980’s but actually AI slop.
More AI slop that somebody has had a computer generate. No BLIRER, but there is the famous shop LOCAL BAKER, WEE SMITH and a tartan Allegro. Also, one woman appears to have a bag from PIGS FARTS and another a bag from NIVOL GLIENM.

You might get to see the sea from the roof?

Jimmy Kimmel: “The only war Trump had an exit plan for was Vietnam.”
the sobering detail here is that the Danes were prepared to fight while knowing exactly how that would likely end for them
#NUFC CL ref, Francis Letexier, CL match record: 32 matches, 4 yellow cards/game, 11 reds, 15 pens awarded. Not into conspiracy theories, but, given where the match is, I reckon we'll need to score from open play
