I am very pleased to announce that Phil King/@junkshopper's 'Lush: A Far From Home Movie', is now on YouTube for all to see.
I very much enjoyed appearing with Phil last year at various events, at home abroad, discussing the film with him and the audience.

Sad to hear about the fire at the DoJ filing room that happened next weekend.

Every personal attack.

Every attempt to distract or to divide.

It energises, strengthens and empowers our movement.

Lower bills. Tax billionaires. Join us.

That’s a ridiculous decision. Had no impact on the ball and keeper wasn’t getting there anyway. And I’m not a Liverpool fan.

Maybe I'm a big dumb dingus but I've never understood why, even for purely selfish reasons, none of these mega-billionaires spend the gigantic sums of money they spaff on space shit or AI on world hunger. Surely, even for an amoral cunt, being the guy who did that would trump building some rockets.

This is powerful stuff: the reasoning behind Pillay’s commission finding that Israel has committed genocide in Gaza.

A woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK...

78% are murdered by a partner/ex

Yet not once have I heard Reform talk about this

Not once have I heard them back measures to protect women’s safety

In fact, they voted against them...

Wave of nostalgia finding this. Matchbox really did have some random choices of prototype for their kits.

Out out and live music is involved. An early entry for @badgigpictures.bsky.social bodes well 👍🏻

Celebrate the weekend/ease into a week of chaos with the kids home with a spot of vinyl retail therapy ⤵️
More records going on the Discogs (and likely more to add as the day goes on). Signed Johnny Marr and Miki Berenyi included this morning. Take a look, make a purchase, share, improve my Friday morning 😊 #vinyl

Thanks for the interest in a few of the signed CDs mentioned before. The other will be going on eBay at lunch so shout before then if any interest. Also uncovered signed Nina Persson, Sophie Ellis-Bextort and Taylor Swift that I had zero recollection of buying. Will be listing these as well.

Along with more vinyl on the Discogs, if anyone has any interest in CDs that have been scrawled on, just dug these out and happy to move them on. Give a shout if any interest.

For once in my life, I'd like the country to be governed by a progressive party whose main selling point isn't: 'At least we aren't the other guys.'

Spare some love today for Collingwood. The other Admiral at Trafalgar.

Proud northerner. Hater of flogging. Legit brilliant commander and Nelson's trusted right hand. First into battle on Royal Sovereign. Took charge after Nelson was sniped and saved the British Fleet.

Here's HIS Trafalgar... /1 🧵

The BBC are accidentally running the subtitles to Mrs Marple over the Mercury Prize, and it’s rather wonderful. A few of lines could plausibly have been written by Jarvis.
