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
“Welcome to the Centrist SuperBowl Halftime Show, the show for sensible moderates! This year, we’ve got a guy rapping racist dogwhistles, but in SPANISH! Take a seat on that fence and enjoy the show!”

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.

“Shoot for Mars. Even if you miss, you may explode in disgrace in the general vicinity of the Moon ❤️❤️❤️”

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 🥀

In theaters February 13, 2026 via Warner Bros. Pictures

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.

A reminder that the SuperBowl and professional sports in general are vehicles for resistance but are rife with abusers like this. This psycho chased down his ex, who’s a prominent professional athlete herself, and intentionally crashed his car into hers. And in 6 months will likely be back playing

Maneskin’s Winter Olympics Halftime Show has been postponed indefinitely due to an investigation discovering that we are not at the halfway point. Also the guitarist has lost two fingers to frostbite while the lead singer, suffering from paradoxical undressing, has run off into the Alps in the nip

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”

To the wonderful people at the Macroom InTreo office: you have the chance to do the funniest possible thing this week

Just now learning that Keith Urban performed Pink Pony Club at a party for Donald Trump around the same time he got divorced from Nicole Kidman because she liked having sex too much and boy oh boy there’s shooting yourself in the foot and there’s cutting your feet halfway off and running a marathon

In retrospect it wasn’t my best move to respond to my mother’s “what are you seeing in the cinema this weekend” text with just the words “Send Help” without explaining that’s the name of the film. As she informed me in the immediate subsequent panicked phone call

House in our estate puts out flags for 6Nations games so Italy, Scotland, England & Wales ones out today and it’s hard to express how much less respect I have for someone who doesn’t put up a George’s Cross for nationalistic reasons but to act as some kind of middle class semaphore teletext

Just because good news is worth celebrating:

There is now a Prep medication that is an *every six month* injection.

HIV has, effectively, a vaccination.

A reminder that Stephen Frears made a very poor Lance Armstrong movie whose sole redeeming feature is the absolutely pitch perfect casting of Ben Foster

A fun idea I’d like to pitch to gym owners is to have a couple of hollow but throwable weights that patrons like myself can hurl at teenage lads who start playing slapping and chasing games in the fucking gym. @me for an exciting business opportunity

Private consultants and their secretaries gotta be the most careless fuckers in the health system cause what the fuck do you mean that you were paid €300 for a 10 min visit 2hrs late just to organise an emotionally charged surgery that you didn’t schedule with the hospital and now won’t take place

A representative of Bohemians was in the school today doing a workshop and was telling the kids about a competition they could enter to win match tickets and it took everything in me not to yell out “ah here, design your own fuckin jerseys”

The DUP are such an embarrassing bunch of losers to be representing the last gasps of British colonialism on this island, like I bet the spirits of Pope Adrian IV, William of Orange, Oliver Cromwell, James Craig and the lads cringe every time one of these gobshites tries to act hard
