Gaykryssning nekad både i Turkiet och Egypten

Gaykryssning nekad både i Turkiet och Egypten

The Scarlet Lady har dykt upp på flera håll i nyheterna nyligen. Det är en gaykryssning som tidigare i veckan skulle lägga till en turkisk hamn, men fick beskedet att de inte var välkomna på grund av "groups known for behaviours that do not align with the structure of our society and our moral values".

Det här fick arrangören Atlantis Events att se sig om efter ett nytt resmål och satte kurs mot Alexandria i Egypten. Men... inte heller där var gaykryssningen välkommen, och bolaget skriver i ett uttalande (via The Guardian):

"Please know that both the Atlantis and Virgin Voyages teams worked tirelessly to make this call in Alexandria a possibility. This news came as a surprise to all of us, and we're just as disappointed as you are."

Det här är såklart rejäla misasräkningar eftersom folk räknat med att få se Egyptens sevärdheter, och arrangören beklagar och menar att det är ett kvitto på att HBTQ-rättigheter just nu är på tillbakagång. Skeppet ska nu åka till Kreta istället, och vad som händer efter det återstår att se.


“Dumbest thing I’ve seen on my timeline”: Fans react to G2 Esports benching coach Dylan Falco for Perkz

Just when you think European League of Legends cannot get any more dramatic, G2 Esports comes along and completely flips the script. In a move that has left the entire community double-checking the date to make sure it is not April Fools’ Day, G2 announced they are benching their long-time head coach, Dylan Falco. fish-roadgame.online

G2 wrote on X: “Despite not being on the active roster, Dylan is still part of G2. A proper goodbye video will be posted when he officially leaves.”

The shockwave hits right after G2 got knocked out of the Mid-Season Invitational by the North American squad LYON. To make things even wilder, the guy stepping into the head coach seat is none other than the legendary former G2 midlaner and self-proclaimed role-swap merchant, Luka “Perkz” Perković.

Moving a Coaching Legend to the Bench

To say fans are losing their minds would be a massive understatement. Dylan Falco has been the tactical brain behind G2 for nearly five years, steering the team to an incredible eleven LEC trophies. He literally signed a contract extension through 2027 just a few months ago, making this sudden sideline feel like a total gut punch to the fandom.

Fans are voicing a lot of frustration online because replacing one of the most consistent, decorated western coaches in history with a guy who has virtually zero head-coaching experience feels like a massive, unnecessary gamble.

“Why is the best coach getting benched?” responded an alarmed fan.

Added another: “This is the dumbest f***ing thing I have seen on my timeline in maybe 3+ years.”

NAVI put it more simply: “What.”

The Perkz Experiment Begins Immediately

Perkz is undeniably one of the greatest players Europe has ever produced, but coaching a elite team is a completely different beast than playing on the stage. He only rejoined G2 a few weeks ago as a positional coach, and now he is suddenly running the entire show.

The timing is incredibly frantic too. Perkz is slated to make his official head-coaching debut at the Esports World Cup on July 15, giving him almost no time to settle into the role. Some fans are hoping his legendary leadership and deep chemistry with midlaner Caps will spark a miracle, while others are convinced this is a recipe for absolute disaster.

One thing is for certain: watching G2 has become mandatory viewing, even if only to see if this wild experiment actually works.

Haaland’s hometown hails ‘little boy who grew into a huge Viking’

The people of Bryne are proud of local hero’s rise to the top of world football as Norway prepare to face England

Surrounded by red hats, No 9 shirts and Erling Haaland action toys at her fabric shop in the small Norwegian town of Bryne, Olinda Haaland – no relation but proud to share the now world-famous name – said everybody in the striker’s home town was a football fan these days.

“It’s been pure joy,” she said of her namesake’s rise to the top of world football. “We all love him so much and he’s doing so much for Bryne.”

Man höll på att sugas ut genom ett fönster på Ryanair-flygning

En trasig motor skickade skrot in i ett fönster på en Ryanair-flygning, något som nästan fick en passagerare att flyga ut genom fönstret. Han hängde med båda huvud och axlar utanför fönstret, men satt lyckligtvis fast i bälte medan hans fru och andra passagerare drog in honom igen (tack Dexerto).

Mannen klarade sig lyckligtvis till synes utan skador, och planet återvände till grekiska Thessaloniki där det hade startat ifrån. Andra passagerare berättar att det hördes en rejäl smäll innan olyckan, och det kunde naturligtvis ha gått betydligt sämre.

Passagerarna erbjöds ett reservflyg relativt kort efter landning, men vi kan tänka oss att inte alla var helt sugna på att snabbt komma upp i luften igen edfter olyckan.

Evil Dead Burn Evil Dead. Denna kultförklarade filmserie. Jag pluggade film och redigering på gymnasiet och tokälskade allt med Sam Raimi.
