ALBUMS OF 2026 THREAD

Always try to listen to 40-50 new albums a year, gonna be trickier this year cause none of my big favourites have releases scheduled.

Managed 45 last year, lots of good ones, not many years I’d find five different 5 star albums
It’s hilarious how right wingers all come around with their own “good” version of societal stratification like they’ve had some kind of major breakthrough.
Maria Steen, she of the Holy Handbag, argues in the Times that we should introduce a form of marriage with "no possibility of divorce." Maybe she is too young to remember that we already tried this. It ended very badly for some - that's why we introduced divorce.

Brb gonna head up north and reunite the country cause “our shared Christian history” is apparently all we need to focus on
The Rubio speech really is appalling, and if you haven’t read it yet, you should.

In the ongoing saga of Everyone Has Lost Their Minds, I just witnessed an argument between a driver and a pedestrian (man in his 40s) which led to the pedestrian leaning over the bonnet and aggressively rubbing his head until a veritable cascade of dandruff had fallen on the car and then walked off

Shocking because it seemed like such a legitimate political action with a clear basis in law
Great news, the outrageous ban on Palestine Action ruled unlawful. This was blatant repression of solidarity with Palestine, all while the British government was arming apartheid Israel's genocide of Palestinians. All arrested must be freed. #FreePalestine

As I drove through a third flooded section of road on my way to work today, it struck me that not only will the climate crisis thing come to our own phones, we will be continuously told by morons in councils and government that they can do nothing whatsoever to fix it

Well the joke is on them. If they get an injunction I’m going to stand outside their poxy, garish shithole hotel until 3am every night with a karaoke machine that only plays I Am Hated by Slipknot
Here we go again.

We need an “agent of change” principle in this country. They knew there was a club there but skimped on the sound proofing.

This stuff is on purpose. They shouldn’t be rewarded for it. It’s entirely their own fault.

This is a massive win for the trans community but I’m also choosing to view it as a personal sleight on that cunt Eoin O’Malley
#BREAKING EU Parliament votes to accept a report, that calls for "the full recognition of trans women as women" as part of the EU priorities for the UN CSW on "women’s rights and gender equality."

Ireland is full of beautiful, talented, famous people. We deserve a better class of nepo baby.
Another media darling and insider coming out with the nastiest laziest “joke” he can make about a mass shooting of kids.

Look sorry but if you take all the pedophilia and Mossad links out of the equation Jeffrey Epstein's emails suggest he is a stupid cunt who is a terrible hang and these diplomats are like "you sir are my FAVOURITE man in the whole wide world". That plane MUST have had a Soda Stream or something.

Elon Musk's ambition to one day settle Mars appears to have taken a back seat for a rather nearer and more achievable goal – sending humans to live on the moon. https://cnn.it/46sbAMm

Early reviews for “Wuthering Heights” are in and sounds like I was right on the money
I don’t consider Emerald Fennell either a fresh and interesting filmmaker or a menace to cinema. She is an exceptional visual stylist whose films don’t “provoke” so much as they flick you in the ear and run away giggling at how funny they are like an annoying teenager
Watch the teaser trailer for Emerald Fennell's adaptation of Wuthering Heights starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi 🥀

The government says the people being deported are violent criminals, and they treat them inhumanely. But mostly they are subjecting ordinary people to extraordinary punishments.

Me seeing post-Super Bowl praise for Green Day:

“Oh yeah buddy? Did you immediately call 21st century breakdown a masterpiece? Did you make a playlist of the Best Tracks from Uno Dos and Tré? Did you try really really hard to have a fav Father of All track? Honestly how fucking DARE you, you poser”
