I wonder how many different groups in DC are spaffing their pants right now, thinking that the plan has finally worked as the chaos temporarily aligns with whatever batshit was on their wishlist before rolling on to a giddying array of even more outlandish outcomes?

Did not have yoinking presidents on my 2026 bingo card yet here we are

The bin lid at work sounds just like the gong at the start of Kool and the Gang’s Jungle Boogie

I would absolutely be up for this
N.B. if you gave me money for a tv programme I would take @loudribs.bsky.social and my pal Matt and just go to the places mentioned in the Shipping Forecast and shout the names of them in various weathers.
Making MrsRJ listen to shipping forecasts. She's not as into it as I am but she'll come round.

If Jools Holland died during the filming of The Hootenanny, would they have to keep it secret and pretend he actually died on New Year’s Eve?

Reminder that Uncle-Dad has a real knack for taking photos of us that look like they’re from the promo bundle for some Channel5 poverty porn series.

Some lass came into the shop with a poster for her gig, asked if we could put it up, then off-handedly suggested I should come to it - to which I said ‘Nah, I’m really old’.

“Don’t worry, there’ll be other BBC6 Dads there.”

Absolutely murdered.
What's an insult you'll never forget?

The dog’s supposed to eat the carrot in a Rudolfy manner but now she’s just sitting there cosplaying Churchill

Yeah but no one *actually* called him Mellow Yellow, did they?

That Geese album everyone’s banging on about is very clever-clever but chaotically so (which makes it sound terrible but it’s actually dead good)

What’s it been like being an artist in the year if AI? Weeeeeeeird, by and large.

First off, I’ve been pretty lucky. I got a bit twitchy a few years back about the way the big platforms were going so I really concentrated on IRL sales and that seems to have been pretty well insulated against AI.

UPDATE FROM THE COALFACE OF RETAIL:

The menfolk are beginning to panic. Eyes darting like quicksilver. Hands full of way too much stuff. Beads of perspiration forming on furrowed brows. Five more shopping days to go and we’re already close to throwing a collective whitey.

The 90s are getting the rose-tinted treatment at the mo so I’d just like to remind you that 90% of it was spent sitting in the crawlspace of your mate’s loft (the one with the achingly liberal parents) watching a strobe light and smoking the most god awful soap bar/huffing poppers.

Glad to see this week’s New Statesman reinforcing the cast iron rule that you can’t be a moustache-twiddling middle class periodical without a sprawling hagiography of the Shipping Forecast at least once per annum

I’ve been listening to a lot of Wes Montgomery of late and have two things to report:

1: His cover of A Day In The Life GOES PLACES m.youtube.com/watch?v=psvs...

2: Man loved octave chords so much he’s halfway to skatepunk. Sounds like Lagwagon doing a lounge set.

Pretty sure this is the precise moment when the internet stops being the internet and becomes the warp from WH40K

Have you ever tried explaining Ton Cruise’s Cocktail to someone who’s never seen it? Because I had to the other day and it’s really hard.
