This is both a great personal thread and an important set of wider reflections on the state of the debate about place and community.
There was a prominent article on the BBC home page recently exploring, with a particular angle, political views within town(s). By the number of people who sent me a link, I think you'll know the one I'm referring to!

I have just been to the record shop to buy the new Tortoise album - not on streaming services for a few weeks.

Happy birthday to Steve Cropper. Here's a fantastically cool clip of Booker T. & the M.G.'s performing Time Is Tight at Stax Studios. It's taken from a French mini-documentary from 1969, which also features Isaac Hayes, the Memphis Horns etc. Watch it at 📺▶️ youtu.be/ste1KIwjbLE

We iPhone 13 Mini holdouts will never win and it’s becoming harder to find replacements but it’s nice to see @sarahoconnorft.ft.com trying. on.ft.com/3IT3RyA
Why can’t I buy a small smartphone?
Capitalism is not giving me what I want, but I’m not behaving like a good free market consumer myself

Getting a lot of blank looks when I tell people how excited I am about this.
The Earlies live in Switzerland in 2005. Very excited to be seeing them tomorrow in Hackney
